Question Gear for a level 11 human monk

I'm a newbie, and have around 160 plat left after buying two Master Wu's Trance Sticks. Not sure what to focus on next. Someone was kind of enough to toss me a Phase Spider Carapace, which I use, but maybe it would be better to sell it and gear up?

Equips:
  1. gloves: Griffon Talon Gloves
  2. wrists: Bracers of Battle
  3. Rings: Scarab Ring/Crystal Ring
  4. Weaps: 2x Master Wu
  5. Chest: Phase Spider Carapace
  6. Rest: Cloth

Items:
  1. 90% of Small Banded Set

Best possible thing you could do right now is to reroll as iksar.

Can't beat that racial slot upgrade.

Sell off everything you own and roll an enchanter, gear it the best you can and get it to 60 and start farming stuff to eventually twink the piss outta your monk.

the best bang for your buck on blue is Silver Chitin Hand Wraps

Play what you want. Being a monk is not a get rich strategy though. I would get:
2x HP rings
SCHW
Wu's Quivering staff when level 20

Nice to have:
Azure Sleeves - Cheap with nice AC
Wu's armor. Usually can get this for free from someone working on tailoring
2x Tar goo strands - Very cheap wrist option


Should be able to level for awhile with that and random gear you find.

I would focus on finding someone to hold your gear so you can reroll iksar and transfer it over.

Sell the Phase Spider Carapace and with the plat you have, I suggest getting the following items in this order:

1) Wu's Quivering Staff. (cheap, good for 2hb, but your 7/18s will be better while your low level)
2) Silver Chitin Handwraps, usually run around 700 to 1000pp
3) 5/55 rings x2. You can get 2 for 375pp
4) orc fang earings x2
5) Tar Goo Strands x2
6) Executioners hood
7) Black Pantherskin armor (wear Wu's until you can afford the set)
8) by the time you are getting close to 40, hopefully you have saved up 4000pp to buy an Imbued Fighters staff. Its an extremely good weapon at that level, and no more damage cap to worry about)


FBSS is too expensive (2000pp) compared to Silver Chitin hand wraps, plus you get 1% more haste with the handwraps, and +3 to all saves. Not to mention you can pick up a thin banded belt for 50pp or you can get a thick banded belt for 1600 when you get richer.


The best item hands down for a monk is going to be Fungi Tunic, but I didnt put that on your list because its out of reach for your budget. What some have said about going Iksar is true. Having racial regen does make a difference, especially when soloing.

Spend as much time as you can soloing near places you can get regen and haste buffs. Duo as much as you can with the right classes. Avoid full groups, because they will leech off of your hard work.

Duo with the following classes in this order from best to worst
Necromancer/Shaman
Bard
Druid (charm zones only)
Mage
Enchanter
Rogue
Paladin
Shadow Knight
Warrior (only if twinked)
Ranger
Cleric
Wizard
