I could be wrong, but I think Eduin is simply saying that if as a monk you are in fact tanking and you have good AC gear there is no real reason to FD.
Personally I disagree, not for mechanics reasons, but because it's bad for Warrior morale.
But really, once you get stuff slowed, does it even matter who is tanking? XP mobs do so little damage anyway.

Yes and no.
I can see the argument of wanting Warriors to feel relevant while levelling up, especially if your playing with a group of friends or guildies. But a hell of lot of levelling in EQ (especially 50+) is probably going to be done in PUGs and frankly, in a PUG the XP rate is by far the most important concern to me.
I think the key point is that, grouped with a Monk, I'm gonna be very disappointed if they're wearing 12k worth of Black Pantherskin instead of items like Azure Sleeves which cost, what, 50pp tops.
But I don't think that nuance of various scenarios is the important thing in this thread.
The OP asked a question that he deserves an answer to - should he get Pantherskin or AC/HP gear. We know the answer. The problem is some muppet chipping in with a confusing message that AC doesn't matter.
