What You'll Experience

Release the full potential of the unchained monk with this essential archetype collection. When Pathfinder Unchained revised the monk class with improved mechanics and better balance, it created a problem: all the classic monk archetypes from previous books were designed for the original class and didn't work with the new version. This supplement solves that problem by revising monk archetypes from across the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game product line to make them fully compatible with the unchained monk. Now you can play a tetori grappler, a monk of the four winds channeling elemental power, a wandering martial philosopher, or any of the other beloved monk specializations using the superior unchained monk chassis.

Classic Archetypes, Unchained Mechanics

This collection brings together fan-favorite monk archetypes and updates them for the unchained monk's revised class features, ki pool mechanics, and flurry of blows system. The tetori's grappling mastery, the monk of the four winds' elemental abilities, the wanderer's versatile techniques—all have been carefully revised to work seamlessly with Pathfinder Unchained. Special attention was given to the martial artist and zen archer archetypes, which received the most significant updates to ensure they maintain their iconic playstyles while leveraging the unchained monk's improved mechanics.

Designer Insights and Transparency

Beyond just providing updated archetypes, this supplement includes a detailed treatise explaining how the updates were made. This transparency helps GMs understand the conversion process and provides guidance for adapting other monk archetypes not included in this collection. The notes on the martial artist and zen archer are particularly valuable, as these two archetypes required the most extensive changes to work with the unchained monk's fundamentally different approach to combat.

What's Included

• Tetori archetype (grappling specialist)
• Monk of the Four Winds archetype (elemental monk)

• Martial Artist archetype (unarmed combat master)
