From the Build Creator[]
This build relies on two amazing synergies first that of Divine Spellcasting, Zen Archery and Monk AC bonus all stemming from Wis bonus. Second a high number of attacks gaining massive bonus's from Stormlord abilities using highly expendable ammunition. One great thing is the fallback to healing and buffing spells from Cleric or Druid levels. The build quite nicely fills the roll of Tank (high AC and buffed DR), Damage Dealer (Using the juiced up Shurikens in a Flurry attack is devastating), or even at higher levels Primary Healer (19 Caster Levels and Practiced Spell Caster).

To make this build work it's simple really. Buff up (pretty minimal stuff especially for the Druid version), make sure flurry mode is active at all times, use your storm lord abilities on some shurikens. Then proceed to chuck things at people. (Authors Note: I would like to see arguments for superiority of Cleric/Druid in the discussion of this Build)
