Wanted to post it here to see what people thought before actually sticking it in the "official" forum, since I'm new at this and not too sure of myself.

First of all, apologies ahead of time if this class is super-cheese. I originally thought it up before I even knew this forum existed, although I have tweaked it a bit since then. Basically, I wanted to make a mainly Monk character with Fighter/WM to flesh out Kama-wielding abilities -- not make a Fighter/WM with Monk just to nab the Kama AB progression.

Note that this is pretty similar to Mithradates' Ferocious Man-Chicken of Doom but I hope different enough to warrant posting.

Anyway, here's what I've got:

Notes
>>This build is mostly intended for single-player, hence the skill selection. Heal, Lore, and Persuade can all be switched out for other things, including Hide and Move Silently as in Mithradates' build.
>>The last monk level can be anything, really. I just figured a few more skillpoints were better than +2 HP, but that's not set in stone.
>>In early levels, one will probably want to stick with Heavy Armor.
>>Monk levels could be spread around a bit more to keep Tumble topped off.
>>If you're not interested in Overwhelming/Devastating Crit. you could take two more Great Strengths, Epic Prowess, and perhaps Epic Will to get a total of +2AB and +4 Will saves.

Advantages (as compared to Ferocious Man-Chicken of Doom)
>>Gets lots of feats a good deal sooner (Ambi, ITWF, IC, EWF, EWS, WM feats)
>>Gets Dev. Crit. (though I suppose some consider this a disadvantage ).
>>74 more HP
>>3 higher SR
>>Perfect Self (Mind-Affecting Immunity, 20/+1 DR)
>>Glowing eyes

Disadvantages (as compared to Ferocious Man-Chicken of Doom)
>>Lower saves (except Fortitude)
>>2 Lower AC
>>2 Lower AB
>>Glowing eyes

So... what do you guys think? And yes, I know kamas are cheesy, so only comment on that if you really must .

EDIT: HP typo corrected. I wish this build had 578 HP .

Just want to tell you that when you post in the build request forum (where this should have been ), it doesn't matter if it's totally, or nearly similar to an earlier build. It's what that forum is there for.

Sons of Odin fights to die and live again Ah, okay, wasn't sure which forum to put it in because I wasn't sure if it was good/well-polished enough to qualify for the official forum.

Additionally, and regarding the citing of similar builds, I was hoping to basically submit this build assuming it seemed decent to others, so wanted to get it in good shape to start with.
