Monk - epic fists at level 1

[Spyren]

Awesome, thanks for the advice! We're currently over in Steamfront working on kobold camps, and will probably end up in crushbone at some point, but it's good to have some destinations in mind for our teens other than trainfest unrest!

So atm, I'm using a cracked staff in my main hand, but should I offhand it and work on my hand to hand for my primary weapon?

Also mend doesn't seem to be working, or going up in skill, did I need to drop at least one point into it at the trainer to get it working?

Thanks for the help and I'll check out the monk wiki as well!
