I also don't really consider late stage P99 to be very classic. I don't think it was classic for most Monks to even have a T-staff or their Epic. I remember when Green was a new server, my Monk friend stayed awake for 48 hours at Frenzied Ghoul and still didn't get their FBSS. For me that is more of a classic monk experience.

I feel like people in this thread are mainly talking about players who have access to the best twink gear in the game or BIS everything at max level, which is fine. I was just confused about what the conversation was actually about.

I personally can't afford to drop 45K on a Tranquil Staff and another 25K on a Cloak of Flames for a twink character (at this point I'm assuming the Monk is also going to have spent another 40K on a fungus tunic lol). I know a lot of other players can though. By this same standard though I've seen Paladin twinks doing pretty bonkers damage with a massive dragonclaw shard etc.

All a monk needs is IFS and/or Ada club + SoS and they are perfectly serviceable. Everything above this tier of gear is for pure raid DPS + solo artist stuff.

MDS sucks...I used one on my paladin at first. 2 hander mo' betta.
