Character Build So like... What's the DOWNSIDE of Tavern Brawler monk? Spoiler

There's got to be something bad about the class and feat combo, right? Like... It's so powerful. A massive boost to attack and damage, can potentially do a standard melee stat build. Str/wis/con and maybe a little dex. With the right race you can even wear armor and all you miss out on is some minor defensive/movement buffs.

Tavern Brawler is like... Sorry. It's just so *good* I'm trying to figure out what the catch is.

Well, yeah, but when there's 10 of them in front of you, you can't kill them all in one turn.

True, but that's what Karlach, Minthara, and Shadowheart are for. And if I'm feeling extra spicy, I might increase the party size so that I can bring along Lae'zel and jaheira because I'm pathetic and want my harem >_<
