So if you're overly concerned with AC, wouldn't you in turn be concerned about weight? I am using a Foreman's Tunic as well atm, but seeking to replace it with a Sythraak Hide, and eventually ROTLC.

I am concerned with AC as well, and am always destroying copper/silver because of this. Even if I am not tanking in the group, if it comes down to it, that extra AC could make the difference between life and death, and at this point in my career (27), I will most likely have to eat that death without a res.

Oh, i'm very concerned with weight. But I have a Necro main, so i'm not concerned with money either. (btw, i'm waiting till Kunark to make an Iksar monk, since I was a human monk on live).

My weight was nearly always just below or right at the threshhold for max AC, unless I was farming in an underleveled zone (in which case I didn't care). Until I got a few tinker bags, I would only hunt in places close enough to banks or close enough to vendors to make sure I only went over a single stone at most while fighting. This did mean I left a bunch of FS weapons or bronze armor rotting - but I was more concerned with leveling than making money at the time. Unfortunately, I didn't have a necro main on live, so I was really poor.

Eventually I got around to farming plat, and then I got all the other good stuff [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

EXP > Money. Mages/Necros/Chanters/many others don't have to make the choice - but Monks do.
