::::It isn't equivalent to a +5. Here's a cumulative probability distribution: [http://andrewgelman.com/2014/07/12/dnd-5e-advantage-disadvantage-probability/ link]. Maybe under the assumption that they hit you on an 11 or higher it becomes basically +5 AC, but it's probably a closer comparison to say +4. --[[User:Aarnott|Aarnott]] ([[User talk:Aarnott|talk]]) 19:58, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::This is essentially a scaling feat that you must take 3 times, the first time you take it you gain a growing bonus to Attack/AC that caps at +5 at level 20, the second time you gain the ability to force rerolls from a single opponent making a attack roll against you, the third time you gain the ability to reroll attacks against a single opponent. When you look at the second 2 at face value yes it seems over powered, until you realise that it cost Ki to use, and generally a monk will not have a very large Ki pool to keep up a constant offense and defense. Effectivly every feat I have been posting has a Ki cost to it and unless a monk were to take say GW's way of the hare feat a monk will lose effectiveness after a single encounter for they will be constantly spending Ki points.
Now let us discuss the issue of Balance, in no way does this ability have the potential to cause as much havoc as a wizard with spells, the main class that will be using this feat is a monk, and monks are a Low balance.
