Way of the Four Elements (Monk Subclass)

Elemental Form Starting at 3rd level you can channel your KI energy into the pure elemental force. When using your Flurry of Blows, Patient Defence, or Step of the Wind abilities you gain additional benefits by manipulating the elements.   Flurry of blows: Your attacks with the flurry of blows ability gain your proficiency bonus as additional fire damage; as your weapon or fists become surrounded with fire that bursts unto the creature you hit.   Patient Defence: When using the Patient defense ability, your dodge action also surrounds your body in a thin layer of stone. All nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage is reduced by a number equal to your proficiency bonus. This bonus lasts for as long as the dodge action does   Step of the Wind: When using the Step of the Wind ability you put drifts of air beneath your feet and difficult terrain no longer costs extra movement speed until the end of the turn.   Perma Frost Starting at 6th level whenever you use your stunning strike ability your hands become encased in elemental frost and any creature that fails the saving throw is not only stunned for a round but has their speed halved for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each turn to end the effect early.   Elemental Expertise Starting at 11th level you gain the ability to perform several elemental feats of mastery.   Dispersful Gale: You can spend 2 ki points to perform a waving motion with your hands that summons a domed wind current around you that spans a radius of 15 feet, the current follows you wherever you go. Any ranged attacks that pass the dome are made with disadvantage, any gas, fumes, or fire within the dome disperse and the area is considered rough terrain for creatures other than you. This action requires concentration. You can’t use this underwater.   Water Jet: When you take the attack action you can forgo one attack and spend 3 ki points to use a water source within 60 feet of you to strike a target within 30 feet of the source. The target must make a Strength saving throw, on a failed save the target takes 4d8 bludgeoning damage and is pushed back 20 feet.   Rock Solid: When an ally within 30 feet of you gets attacked you can use your reaction and spend 2 ki points to slam the ground, a small slab of stone pushes up from the ground between the attacker and ally causing the ally to gain three quarters cover from all attacks received from that direction until the start of said allies turn   Self Immolation: You can use your action and spend 5 ki points to explode the very air around you into flame. All creatures within a 20-foot radius must make a dexterity save or take 8d6 fire damage. All flammable objects not worn by a creature in the area are ignited.   Investiture of the Elements Starting at 17th level you gain the ability to unleash unprecedented elemental power. As an action, you can take on the ultimate form of elemental energy that lasts for up to 1 minute unless you use an action to end it. Once you use this feature you can’t do so until you finish a long rest.   -Your body becomes covered in hardy metals and rock, you gain resistance to all damage except for psychic   -A spinning current of water surrounds you. You can breathe and move underwater normally and can move on top of the water as if it was solid.   -Spinning currents of air, lift you up in bursts of movement. You can fly up to your movement speed each round and gain the effects of feather falling when ending your turn in the air. If you end your turn mid-air you fall towards the ground.   -Streaks of red hot fire spins around you. Your attacks gain a range of 30 feet, deal fire damage, and you illuminate the area around you, 30 feet of bright light, and 30 feet of dim light. All attacks made in this form gain the Elemental Form buff for Flurry of Blows.
