Way of the Faithful Hound

From DDO wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Way of the Faithful Hound improves a Monk's Listen skill and improves their ability to hit flanking opponents with each upgrade.

This enhancement is available for any Monk at level 2 and does not require choosing a philosophy. This particular enhancement may stack with the use of the Two Weapon Fighting family of feats, improving a Monk's success in powerful off-hand attacks from surrounding enemies, making a Monk a more powerful fighter. The Listen skill is less useful, depending on the quest, but in combination with Hide and Move Silently, it could help a Monk in tasks that require some stealth.
