I guess if you see a level 44+ mage where you happen to be before 35, sure a mod rod is a bit of a boost.

Monk weapon options all seem worst than fist if you are aquiring the item naturally (except a cracked staff until level 10).

My green monk strategy is: tailor my own cured silk armor and bare fist my way to 50, picking up a few specific upgrades here and there. I'll get some netted/mesh hands/feet early to have magical attacks. This seems to be optimal (no wasting any time trying to get a slightly better weapon that your fists quickly outgrow, no heavy armor/weapons makes it easier on the weight cap)

Am i missing anything major?
Wait what? Mesh gloves makes fists magic? I thought I wouldn’t be able to kill willowisps this is glorious news
