I rock 28ish with Shovel of the Harvest. Stopped caring.

I've heard that it makes an enormous difference. Although I guess if you're just DPS in a group it doesn't matter. B/c of the inaccurate AC in client UI, it actually drops more than it shows when you overweight.

I always stay under.

Also - Shovel is 10 pounds, same as TStaff... I can't think of a reason that you'd be at 28, unless you're using gear that's not monk gear - or looting plat/gold or don't have 100% bags.

You'll go over for the right weapon, I promise. I'm under with double wu fists though, as long as you aren't tanking it doesn't matter, and the AC hit is negligible as long as you aren't too far over.

Fine - but I use TStaff, which is also 10 pounds, and Fungi, and I'm at 18 after all is said and done

Meh, I don't tank (I hardly group and never solo with my monk). I'm either pulling (Shovel bagged for Bowl of Watery Protection+Shield of Rainbow Hues) or DPSing - the AC loss isn't a big deal.

I have full 7 100% WR bags. It's probably my boots (Barbed Dragonscale which weight 3 stone?) but again, Sta/HP > AC for raiding.

? AC means you will get hit for less damage, if you're taking melee damage, it's super important. If you're assuming you'll only take spell damage, then sure, HP is more important

If a monk is getting meleed at a raid then he's doing it wrong.
