So I thought this would be simple!

[Taiku]

I figured, I would take some of the plat that was loaned to me by higher level players, head over to East Commons, and look for some gear to make soloing as a monk a bit easier, I had enough plat for (maybe) two rings, if I was lucky, but when I got here, I forgot how hectic all of this can be!

First I ran to the Overthere from cab (I'm an iksar!) figuring I would just hop on a boat and ride to Oasis of Marr, however I forgot that the port in OT is KoS to Iksar.. So then I was informed that a port would be the way to go.

Since ports are usually something you pay for, I reached for some plat, to find out that I had left all of my coin in the bank in cab.... So I ran all the way back, picked up my coin, returned to OT, where a nice shaman named Xigot helped me along to get to the druid who was porting, with an invis and SoW, I don't know how I would have made it there on my own!

So -finally- after a few hours of planning and mistakes, I'm here finally, sitting in the entrance of EC tunnel, frantically clicking all of the gear links that is in my price range (a few hundred pp). And being utterly confused as to what to pick up. So I guess I'll end my post with a question, What would you guys buy if you had no gear, and about 400 plat to spend? I'm an Iksar monk, level 17, I've got one wu stick, and another staff that is currently on lend from a guildmate, a foreman's tunic, and the rest is cured silk that I made myself! Anyway I hope I can figure all this out!
