On Agility for monks

[laskje]

Agility used to be a desireable stat for monks back on live for it's damage evasion bump. Does this also apply here on p99?

Will mobs miss me more if I boost up agility by any significant amount?

Reason why I ask is I rarely see any guides recommending it, some even go as far ass stating Agility adds only a minor bump to AC, and are thus not recommending it at all. That seems odd in my book as it used to be about avoiding being it, not as much as being able to absorb hits that land (AC)

Your guildies are correct! AGI is pretty bad.

Agility doesn’t really deliver returns on investment. Keep it above 75 but otherwise feel free to ignore it.

Agi gives more of a beneficial boost to a monk then say a warrior or knight class.

All stats should be maxed as much as possible starting with charisma

It's true, you get better vendor prices and get to RP less of an arsehole, or at least a less obvious one!

Raising your agility is the only way to increase the chance for an enemy to miss. Whether that is important to you or not I leave for you.

What about raising your defence skill?

That is something raised by levels which you cannot control. Your defense will be same as other class' with that same max skill level. Agility you control completely.
