Monk Weapons

[Nisei]

My monk is currently 37, and I've got a Jade Mace, Adamantite Club, and SoS with an RBB for haste, what would you use?

I've also got an IFS, but I'm kind of sick of using a 2h atm.

DW If dps: Jade mace until epic in primary
Else if tanking: Jace mace until 50 or epic, then ada club in primary.
SoS offhand always.

2HB I would use IFS from 40 till 50 or epic.

AC + SOS all the way for dps. IFS for tanking.

Jade Mace no good except for push if you already have the other two. Even with the advantage of dmg bonus applied to low dly, the base ratio of the other two effects more overall dps.

[maskedmelon]

Also once epic, fist + SOS is highest dps, though you take attack hit due to lower h2h skill.

[Man0warr]

If you are soloing, Peacebringer/IFS is best to use until 50+ with epic. If you are min-maxing, it's not a debate.

[Thiefboy777]

Use jade mace/SoS if grouped with a Warrior, Ada club is huge agro and will be annoying for him.

There's a 12/20 velium hammer if you're rich pre epic.

I have a question about the 2HB Weapons.

I just got a CoF, looking for a 2hnd now, alrdy got an IFS, but maybe I have enough to spend for a T-Staff. Sometimes I see a RFS too in /auc.

Is the RFS really bad because of the DMG Bonus system compared to T-staff and IFS? From a style Point of View I would love the fast RFS, but since I have a CoF now anyways..T-Staff would make more sense?

As much as I love 2handers ...

Unless there's a damage shield on the mob you're hitting AC + SoS will do more damage than PB and IFS from the mid 40s onward. From a value standpoint, the 2handers will always win for those on a budget.

For dps

epic/sos >= tstaff > AC/SoS > SoS/SoS > IFS = PB > other combos

and what about Runed Fighters Staff?

RFS damage is too low, and it costs way way way too much.
