Does wisdom actually matter for a monk?

Klorox

I’m wondering if it helps AC, or stun saves, or really anything, or if it’s kinda like charisma with the sorcerer class.

It's like charisma, zero impact on any of your class features.

There is one thing wisdom affects for a monk: your lore score. On the other hand, since your base lore is only one per level, there's no point trying to push it up with attributes - your party will have a mage, thief, or bard with more lore.

Also, for all characters, some dialogue options depend on wisdom. They're far less common than charisma-based dialogue, but they're out there.

I recall wisdom and/or intelligence is relevant when you talk to the Spectator Beholder
