This is a response to Sil's article  responding to Haen's article detailing a proposed optimal party of four (within Haen's tech limit, which hovers around mid tech).

This is not an impressive build, but this is the best I could squeeze out of Monk. This build falls apart if your DM doesn’t allow Ta...
