AC is (mostly) king.

Ditch the plat ruby veil (unless you're raiding or not tanking at all) and go with a Targishin's Bone Mask. Glowing Bone Collar is a cheap upgrade for your neck. If you're willing to farm for it, Necklace of Defiance from FM is 3 more raw ac.

I'd generally go higher AC on your bracers than granite (again, unless you're raiding). If you're human, Hero Bracer + something else.

I soloed on live through my late 50s as a monk and I found AC to be by far the most effective stat for pure efficiency.

Hero Bracers are incredibly heavy, Id stick with the Granite bracers. Otherwise youll be having to compensate the AC loss, from the high weight.

Unless you get a Fungi and a lot faster Haste item and have a T Staff I don't think its going to make much difference in the short run.

Are these currently equipped items or off-the-top-of-your-head ideas for gear upgrades you can currently think of?
