Unearthed Arcana Kensei

Hello. Unless I'm missing where to apply the bonus, the Unearthed Arcana supplement for Monks via the community pack is missing the STR or DEX bonus for attacks and damage with the three weapons, when the Kensei is picked.

A work around, I think, would be to create new weapons for the three weapons and apply the "finesse" attribute.

Here's around half of the code, which changes the weapon damage and attacks to use Dex if Dex is higher. I set the priority to Post-Attributes, 1000.

Code:

doneif (tagis[Helper.ShowSpec] = 0)



doneif (tagis[Helper.Disable] <> 0)



field[abValue].value = 0



      foreach pick in hero from BaseWep where "(!wProperty.Finesse & Helper.Proficient & wProfReq.Martial)"



        ~We have the option of using Dex instead of Str for attack and damage

        perform eachpick.assign[MelAttOpt.aDEX]

        perform eachpick.assign[DamageOpt.aDEX]

      

        nexteach

The missing code is to change the damage die to the unarmed die if the average damage would be higher - that should be able to be cribbed from the Martial Arts ability for the Monk. Although there could be a case to leave it as it is.

Do we know if they’ll add the Revised Kensei which came out in May?

You can check to see what requests are being worked by checking the github: https://github.com/Sklore/HL_DD_5e_Colab/issues

or which ones are coming in the next release at:
https://github.com/Sklore/HL_DD_5e_C...ending-Changes

If you have an issue with something in one of the community files, or would like to see a revised or new article, open a ticket on github.

I think the Kensei is very likely to show up in Xanathar's guide since it has been revised (meaning it is popular), meaning the UA articles will get devalued.
