So many options …

Strength Monk, Wolf Stance, with some extra damage from Ki Strike and Lavasoul Ifrit Feat.

Currently level 5, lone martial in a party of casters. Primary focus for me is tanking with emphasis on damage per round. Secondary is controlling encounters with movement, grappling.

Casters do a good job of buffing me/debuffing enemies, and keeping me healed up.

Strongly considering Wolf Grab, using in combo with Standstill … getting me to essentially four attacks per round if I successfully knock down, then flurry, then reactive stand still strike on a successful wolf drag.

Play with a tower shield, so my other turn action is usually to raise shield or grapple if I’m stationary.

Opinions on this?

There are so many solid damage feats. Also considering: * Ki Cutting Sight … pure damage, but requires perception vs target Fort, but my perception isn’t great * Ki Blast or … for both damage and style, standard save, and awesome scaling * One Inch Punch … damage, good scaling, eventual one milimeter punch

Of course either of the ki options give me another focus point I can get versatile with.

Let me know what you think!

EDIT: OK folks, we’re down to Wolf Drag and Whirling Throw …

Make your case for one if you like. They both are best fit for my style and my party role.
