Way of the Tenacious Badger
The Way of the Tenacious Badger allows more aggressive Monks to leverage harsh attacks against them to power their central energy, ki. In short, for a follower of the Way of the Tenacious Badger, what does not (yet) kill you will make you stronger.
This enhancement is available for any Monk at level 2 and does not require choosing a philosophy. This particular enhancement may fit best with Monks that put additional points in the Intimidate skill and have many Hit points—that is, a Monk build that behaves more as a Fighter ""tank" than a support melee class.
Way of the Tenacious Badger I[edit]
- Usage: Passive
- AP Cost: 1 action point
- Progression: 3 action points
- Available to Monk class level 2
Like a badger, you are most dangerous when grievously injured. You gain +1 to your Intimidate skill, and whenever you are below 15% health, you automatically regenerate Ki. Your patience has suffered however, and you generate Ki slower when meditating. You may only study one animal path.
Way of the Tenacious Badger II[edit]
- Usage: Passive
- AP Cost: 2 action points
- Progression: 14 action points
- Requires All of: Way of the Tenacious Badger I
- Available to Monk class level 5
Like a badger, you are most dangerous when grievously injured. You gain an additional +1 to your Intimidate skill, bringing your total increase to 2, and whenever you are below 20% health, you automatically regenerate Ki. Your patience has suffered however, and you generate Ki slower when meditating.
Way of the Tenacious Badger III[edit]
- Usage: Passive
- AP Cost: 3 action points
- Progression: 33 action points
- Requires All of: Way of the Tenacious Badger II
- Available to Monk class level 10
Like an axiomatic badger, you are most dangerous when grievously injured. You gain an additional +1 to your Intimidate skill, bringing your total increase to 3, and whenever you are below 25% health, you automatically regenerate Ki. Your patience has suffered however, and you generate Ki slower when meditating.
Way of the Tenacious Badger IV[edit]
- Usage: Passive
- AP Cost: 4 action points
- Progression: 52 action points
- Requires All of: Way of the Tenacious Badger III
- Available to Monk class level 15
Like an axiomatic badger, you are most dangerous when grievously injured. You gain an additional +1 to your Intimidate skill, bringing your total increase to 4, and whenever you are below 30% health, you automatically regenerate Ki. Your patience has suffered however, and you generate Ki slower when meditating.
