HOw should i go about twinking a monk

[ajfurious]

so im looking to go back and try my old monk who is a level 22 iksar ,who is currently naked because i sold all of his old gear a couple years ago, so im wondering what gear i should get him for 10-15k plat, as well as if i should pick up this 22 monk or just start a new lvl 1 monk.

[ScottBerta]

Get a haste item like Silver Chitin Hand Wraps or FBSs, black Panther skin items, some hp rings, and for weapon I’d suggest Peacebringer. Other items you can find in EC to fill other slots with any remaining pp. lot of good items for cheap these days.

[Jimjam]

Schw, wqs, a couple of hp rings and whatever else cheap hp/ac can be found.

What do you think makes a better starting point to meet your target: a lvl 1 monk with no gear and 10k to spend or a level 22 monk woth no gear and 10k to spend?

here's what i would do

go to EC tunnel, find Arleigh. buy the following from her: 2x 65hp rings, 2x 35hp25m earrings, 65hp 65m neck. pay her whatever price she quoted you. i guarantee it's the best price (she's a EC tunnel angel)

Silver chitin handwraps is the best value you can get for a 21% haste (maybe 500-700pp if you can find a seller). forget about FBSS. next upgrade from SCHW should probably be spiked seahorse hide belt (but that one is ~26-28k)

phase spider carapace for best value chestpiece (can buy for 600-800pp if you can find a seller). save all your plat for fungi tunic (may be able to get one for 48k if you can find a seller). fungi is a gamechanger

spider fur belt for belt piece (1.5-2k)

hero bracers for that str (150pp?) but 4.0 weight... oh well

go to highpass and slaughter orcs near kith forest zoneline until lv 26-27 then move to highkeep goblins , save the ears and turn them in for extra xp and plat. you can stay in goblins till 43 (no joke) by soloing the raider room + the other one before that.

oh i forgot. spend that 5k for jboots MQ. it's worth it.

i'd second Peacebringer for weapon. always feel 2HB outdamages dual wield in the early levels up to maybe late 40s....

I asked Arleigh the other day about making a piece of cultural armor and he told me to check with others because his would likely cost more. How many times do you get that from tunnel merchants?

Save yourself 6 weight and get an Imbued Fighters Staff.

Peacebringer is too heavy.

But yeah, buy a IFS, HP jewelry, SCHW, and save everything for fungi.

If you want to twink a monk, don't waste plat on a Fungi. A proper monk twink requires either a robe or the exposed nipple straps. Then the trick is choosing top or bottom.

[Solist]

Wear an oracle robe for flamboyance points. There can be no fun without bright blue robe and sunflower nipples.



Add hp rings, absolute most basic armour you can find (footpads, black panthercrap).
Chitin handwraps for haste.
IFS for 2-3k (best option) or find some 2-3k 12/21 velium hammer a stave of shielding for offhand (for the impatient people).

[Jimjam]

Bristlesilk for all visible slots but head and chest. Crap armour but the appearance earns invites.

That's a very German sense of humor there Ravpal.

Get a fungi, a decent weapon, some HP rings and fill the rest of the slots with whatever is left in your budget if you make it that far.

And outside of twinking, make sure you keep sneak, FD and other monky skills leveled as you go <3

[unleashedd]

schw, wus quivering staff, 2x 65hp rings, no gear elsewhere. got me to 45+
