Hello all! I am a first time monk player and was wondering. How is the CON save DC of Stunning Strike calculated, and what(if any) ways are there to increase it? Thanks!
Stunning Strike's save DC is calculated the same as all of your other ki-based abilities, and is as so:
Ki save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier
As to increasing it, leveling will increase your proficiency modifier (+2 from 1-4, +3 from 5-8, +4 from 9-12, +5 from 13-16, and +6 from 17-20). Additionally, increasing your Wisdom score (and by extension, modifier) will also increase your save DC.

Thank you so much! I appreciate your time!
Wait, that's it? What about the Dragonhide Belt, +3? Or is the Stunning Strike DC a maximum of 19?
Dragonhide Belt does increase the DC. If you have the +3 version, the Ioun Stone of Mastery, and a Tome of Understanding, you could max out at a DC of 24.
8 + 7 [PROF] + 6 [WIS] + 3[Belt] = 24
