Interesting.. you have clearly designed this build for a lv 40 birth? I say this cuz, if you arent, take epic prowess and armor skin near 21ish. That way you get those benefits for nearly 20 lvls.
A note on the post itself, please follow the rules. No where do you have the class lvls either in the name or in the build. IT makes your build hard to read. _________________
My suggestion: spread out some of the SD levels a bit in pre-epic. Take a SD at character level 12 and another at character level 17, just to be able to top Tumble for the +1 AC boost as soon as possible.
You also get an XP penalty as soon as you take your first FTR level. From level 13 through 18 and then from level 27, you get the penalty. If you want to mitigate that to some extent, you could alternate your pre-epic Monk and FTR levels. Maybe something like this:
21)Monk9 22)SD5 23)FTR9 24)FTR10 25)Monk10 26)Monk11 27)Monk12 then all Monk.
This way you won't get an XP penalty until level 27, and you can grab some of the pre-epic FTR bonus feats a lot sooner.
Does Weapon Finesse work with Unarmed Strike? I guess so, but something about it is nagging at me... Anyway, take Finesse a lot sooner (level 3 as you have the build laid out, or level 2 as I have it laid out) and move Toughness later into the build. _________________ This signature will self-destruct in 5 seconds...

It does.
I don't see the point of 25 Monk levels here, you can get an extra feat with Ftr14 compared to this. _________________ "With Europe liberated, the people of the world turned their attention to that old devil, the United States of America [...] We taught that monster of old the true meaning of freedom."

the 5 monk is for playability, 1 feat, 1 ac, extra speed and better heal self and other monk abilities without losing too much. _________________ Be realistic...

The build is nice, but I don't see HP, you're also missing Alignment, Playable levels, and PvM or PvP as for the Template requirements.
Drop Spring Attack for Iron Will or Luck of Heroes
Why?
Cause you don't need it, your tumble ranks are enough already to avoid any AoO caused by moving about.

The Patient Priest /Monk 25/SD 5/FTR 10
Playable 12 - 40 (First 12 levels will be tough) PvM (PVP might be a possibility)
Which feat was misplaced, I want to update my spreadsheet?

Great DEX 4 was put at lvl 35. I put it at 36. It's the same in your re-posted build. _________________ Dragonlance ROH is back, better than before! and I spend a little time here WoG
