52 (epic) Monk with 52k - what to upgrade?

[Snaggles]

I’d just solo with an IBF. I’m sure a Tstaff would edge it out but it’s over 10 times the price.

Soloing either would destroy a Dw combo unless you have primals or better.

Sam wise got owned, scurry back to your sick red forums. GL!

Eh.

I think CoF over price too...but its like the iPhone of haste items. Has a goos resale value and people go gaga over it.

I would prob go spiked belt and heiro cloak if I had the choice coz...more stats more hp. I think the 2% haste difference can be argued down. You will however loss value over time on those items quicker as they have a highet drop rate per week than a CoF.

The other thing is you would need to save up another 18-23k plat for a CoF.

Isn't the whole point of a tstaff to grab agro and also stop dmg on yourself? I.e if a mob is stunned for 12 seconds of the fight over 2 procs thats 240dmg from proc and 12 seconds of not been hit? I think tstaff is great no matter what.

I would go:
Heiro cloak
Spike belt
Save up some pp for tstaff.

You essentially got all of ^ for the price of 1 CoF.

Edit:
Also when you get bored of said monk and want to twink another toon you can lease your belt/cloak combo to them easy and throw a cheap fbss/spider cloak back on monk in the mean time.

Edit2: and yes you want atleast 1 dragon or 1 tink bag for all your heavy items.

Edit3: another thing you can do is camp another robe for clicky haste on top again...but that requires swapping fungi in and out and could get super annoying.
