Monk refresher

[Kalorm]

It's been about 8 years since i played my monk. Right now i'm planning on starting in Qeynos. Any advice for gear/advancement? Particular quests I should hit up?

[AR3151]

i have a lvl 7 shaman right now in that area, best i can say is when you get high enough hit up blackburrow as for gear, loot loot loot and sell. sometimes they drop cloth.

Hunt many, many, many gnolls while you're in the Qeynos area. You can turn in their fangs to either Qeynos or Halas for money/xp. Turnins are pretty decent until 10ish, but thats when you should be moving out anyways. At 10, I left Qeynos and went to the Freeport area. More groups, faster xp.

Stay under 14 weight, save up to by weight reducing bags and tailored Wu's armor. Collect bone chips to sell for about 5pp a stack. Don't bother with bat wings, there are merchants that sell them. Don't worry too much about weapons, your hands will be your best weapons by far when you get close to 50. They're nice to have at earlier levels.

#1 rule, don't be afraid to ask questions in ooc (serverwide) or /shout and let people know you're new to the server.

In general, one's hands are nice to have at all levels. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Couple things here --

At low levels the weight restrictions aren't huge, it ends up being a minor ac penalty -- watch your ac as you go over weight and you'll see

As far as fists for weapons, that is only true once you hit 30 -- until then a mod rod (summoned by a high level magician) or an enamelled black mace is the way to go

I have found this link to be invaluable in playing my monk ....

Finally, get to freeport as fast as you can, thats where the majority of the player base is based .... You can get Mesh or Woven gear on brokers ridiculously cheap.
