super monk twink, max lvl 52

[syztem]

aside from bobs/HoT armor, and fully excluding any ntov loot etc. taking a monk to 52 with epic. can't see anything better then jade mace x2 so far with eyepatch/robe haste. trance sticks are great for solo because of the proc but i never parsed the proc vs extra 2dmg on jade maces. 52 I will probably stay fist/club or SoS something. Right now its a 36 monk with basic velious gear and some kunark droppables but I guess without tov weapons or sky fist theres nothing really else to upgrade to just stick with jade maces until epic unless im missing something.

helm: tcrown
hot arms
thurg legs
hot boots
bracers: 2x BoB
chest: fungi/whistling robe swap
belt: RBB
+6 neck
EoE/gobby earring
shoulders: wurmscale coat
range: stone of morid/idol of thorned
back: cloak of flames
eyepatch of plunder
65hp ring/djarns

don't really have the spare plat for a extra tstaff for an alt unless i sell something I don't want to. So mostly be PVE character vox/naggy and such without a tstaff. just wondering if im missing anything to upgrade from where I am at now. still need to pickup an IFS but not in a rush. I have beads and all the clickies mostly, PR DR flower at least, soon as im able to enter PoM.

anything else i cant think of? Circlet of Falinkan is on todo, thats about it for now. if someone can think of something else that falls outside of ntov loot thats 1-2 group achievable. Str of the elements WOULD be considered, and is. but too many mains still working on that and seems a bit overkill with how contested it is to obtain atm.

Note: I don't know Red so my analysis might be a little off but:

Gobby Earring buff is overridden by ROTWF and Epic click so not that great -- could go Fingerbone Hoop or Sanctum Guardian's Earring as alternatives.

I was assuming if you can finish Eyepatch of Plunder you can finish the BOB, Sanctum Guardian's Earring, and 9th Ring Quests too.

If you can afford Skyshrine for Legs/Arms get those if not Thurg works.

I always hate to see people using RBB in belt slot just for stats, on Blue the thing goes for 50k because of the haste and if you're not using it for haste you're paying a hell of a lot of plat for for AC: 5 STR: +10 DEX: +10 STA: +10. You could get a Spider Fur Belt for 1k with AC: 10 DEX: +5 AGI: +5 HP: +40. Haste is also something you can play with on monk... you could get the RBB and then cloak of hiero cloak too or make other adjustments.

and last I would use Ada Cub (MH) and SOS (OH) until you get epic then Epic (MH) SOS (OH)

I just leveled a new monk 1-50 in like 2 weeks (COF, fungi etc.). I think I died once.

If I played on red how many times would I have died 1-50 just from PKs? You lose XP every time too? They can loot your shit or just your plat?

Nowadays... probably none.

NO XP LOSS on PVP - unless you die to mobs while pvpinp...

There are 30-100 people online.... Norrath is HUGE.

I generally go level with people who ask for it that are low level because I know how it is not seeing anyone for HOURS... days if you're in an out of the way zone.

If you're twinked, 150 or so MR is really the most important that way you can just run to a zoneline and plug rather than give a sociopathic narcissist their daily ego feed.

If you're twinked as well as you're talking you were on blue, then probably no pvp death at all. AND you get nearly any camp for as long as you like.

EDIT ADDED: Just your coins can be looted from PvP death.

thanks, i did not think of a ring 9 but that sounds good to work towards. I already have the BoBs and such done. But like one of the other people posted RBBs are cheap on red, kunark dragons regularly sit up.

Having a hard time finding ada club or SoS, hopefully by time I get higher level closer I can though. Sanctum guardian earring i have never quested, but will probably pass on for now due to laziness. Harla dar I don't think has ever even been killed on red, ever since the gflux bug no one has touched 90% of the dragons except egg + valley ones.
