The monk's Way of the Four Elements subclass isn't as good as it should be, a fact that even official surveys point out. So a bunch of us decided to brainstorm together the best ways to fix it.
This is my version that was spawned from that thread:
Way of the Four Elements: Remastered.
The big changes from the original are:
* Thematic elemental cantrips learned over time, granting access to flavorful non-combative abilities that do not require spending ki ("ribbons")
* Double the elemental disciplines learned; two at each milestone instead of just one, adding much-needed versatility
* The ki cost of a spell is equal to its spell level, just like Way of Shadow
* Brand new elemental disciplines to choose from, including spells from the Elemental Evil: Player’s Companion
The result should make for a more flavorful and enjoyable experience!
Looking for a simpler fix? Try out Person_Man's Wot4E Rework! This fix removes elemental disciplines entirely and replaces the subclass with one that closely models the barbarian's Totem Warrior subclass: at each milestone, you choose one of four elemental abilities.
Hopefully one of these two fixes works for you!
