📋 About This Mod
Hit points
At level 1: 10 + Constitution modifier
On level up: 6 + Constitution modifier
Monks get 10 + CON Starting Max HP and 6 + CON Max HP per Level Up, Matching most other Martial Classes.
Overrides the ClassDescriptions File.
Monks are so squishy. Their AC is lower than most Martial classes and their health pool is smaller as well. They only get a d8 hit die when every other Martial class gets at least a d10. Except for Rogue who also has a d8 and hit die, but the Rogue is a very slippery class, and the monk isn't as slippery, especially when they run out of Ki.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Direct fix for Monk's squishiness—makes them feel like a real frontline fighter.
- Simple and clean: no bloat, just the HP numbers you want.
- Recently updated (Aug 2024), so it's likely compatible with current game patches.
⚠️ Cons
- Low endorsement count (21) means it's not widely tested—use with caution.
- Only affects HP; if you wanted other Monk buffs, this won't help.
For players who love the Monk's flavor but hate dropping like a fly in melee. If you're tired of kiting and want to stand toe-to-toe with fighters, this is your mod. Skip if you're fine with the default HP or want a more comprehensive class overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager, just drop the file in and activate—no load order fuss.
- Check your game version matches the mod's update date (Aug 2024) to avoid conflicts.
- Pair this with a Monk subclass mod for a more complete experience.
