Swift Ki

March 7, 2011

( 5 Votes ) by Kris Moreland
Some monk's become so attuned to using their ki, that it becomes much easier to unlock the powers ki can grant. These monks tap their ki faster and perform with the mysticism that only grand masters can dream of.

Prerequisites
  • Ki pool class feature
  • One of the following feats: Extra Ki, Ki Throw, Deep Drinker, Ki Diversity
  • Defeat a worthy opponent in single combat utilizing at least 3 different Ki abilities.

Benefit
You may use a ki ability as a swift action, thus allowing for up to two ki abilities to be used in one round.

Author's Note: I like the Ki class feature of monks, the trouble is I often find myself wanting to pair the abilities in combat. I don't think this is too overpowered, since it just allows for two one round buffs rather than one.
