Looking for improvement ideas for my monk

[DeathsSilkyMist]

Another nice thing about PoM rat maze (at least when I leveled there), is there are usually less players there. LDC is a much easier camp to get to, so it can be more contested.

Well the greater war boned are monks, so they dual wield innately with double attack. I'd always use stonestance on them.

And the wraiths / phantoms proc the lifetap. They are pretty rough also.

Ah I forgot about that. Haven't leveled in CoM in years. Yeah the rats in PoM are all just warriors.

Greater war bones of the highest level are absolute PITA to kill event at 57 - it takes me a disc, a mend, and quite some luck (aka tstaff procs) to kill one. Half the time I have to FD and reset.

LDCs are all you need to 60

and you can keep doing /who all shaman 54 - 59 and find one LFG and they're literally 5 mins away tops and you can go do imps / freeti

PoM sucks.

It seemingly has a high zone exp mod (whereas SolB has a low one) and the NPC's stay dark blue through 60, why are you so anti-PoM?

The XP in PoM is top tier when soloing to 60.

PoM's biggest downside for a melee class is it can be difficult to get your corpse when you die. This is because you cannot bind yourself in zone. People do park clerics in PoM, but it may take some time to get a res lined up.

Monks have FD though, so PoM is much safer in that sense. My SK could easily FD any fight I wasn't confident in. He was able to level from 58 to 60 without any deaths.
