Advancing a Budoka Option 2

The path of the Budoka is not a simple one. There are no shortage of possible ways one can advance. Before advancing, however, stats must be considered. A dexterity of 20 is almost a necessity, and using some stat quests to boost dexterity is prudent. As well, strength and constitution of 18 or higher is strongly advised. Intelligence over 10 is also useful.
Keep in mind the advancment path below is only a guide. You don't have to follow it. It happens to be basically the advancement plan I use. If you follow it and are not happy with the results, don't come complaining to me.
