New Monk
Hey all just wanted to get opinions on what would be the best bet for twinking a monk. I'm not rich enough to afford anything like a Fungi, but I have about 7.5k to use on a new monk. I'm just getting bored with my mage right now and would like to do something other than play a caster. Would my best bet be to just use the majority of it on a FBSS and then get like cured silk and maybe a couple wu's staffs? Or should I just focus on HP rings, and stat gear and some better weapons? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

2 55hp ac rings (450pp) Knuckle duster (300pp) Wus trance staff (100) Set of cured silk (90pp) And lastly a wus quivering staff for when your 20+ (100pp) Sell your knuckle and trance at 20 for the same you spent and buy your FBSS cuz by then you should have enough [You must be logged in to view images.

Haste, decent weps and magic gloves are the best things you can buy for a new monk. I'd spend the cash like this:
6500 FBSS 500 Pair of 5ac/55hp rings 200 Pair of Wu's Trance Sticks 100p Set of Cured Silk 50p Wu's Fighting Gaunlets 50p Pair of Golden Jaded Bracelets 10p Pair of Alligator Tooth Earrings 10p Collar of Undead Protection And use the last 80p to port your monk to and from EC. Zentile | ||

Both of these are really good suggestions.
FBSS should be a priority if you can get it. x2 5ac 55hp rings Full set of cured silk for the weight and AC. They seem to be hard to find but look for x2 Cane of Harmony's instead of the Wu's. Same price but has good stats to help offset the lack of stats that Cured Silk doesn't have. | ||

As soon as you're at the proper level to have the damage cap removed completely (30 or 35, I think?) I'd look into getting an Imbued Fighters Staff, and dropping the trance sticks completely. I've been using a Quivering Staff since about level 18 (the damage sucked, but it was affordable), and my damage has done nothing but gone up. My 2hb has remained relevant, and I'll be looking to get a Fighters Staff soon, hopefully (currently level 37).

You could level a monk fairly far with just haste + good weapons and 5/55 rings. | |||

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I haven't been able to find anyone to sell an FBSS for less than 7.5k and no one has budged on that price. So I just went with some decent stat gear, 5/55 rings, wu's staffs and quivering staff for later levels. Now I'm just chilling in TT hoping to get a kind soul to let me loot a hangman's noose. Only 4% less haste than an FBSS and hopefully will cost me nothing plus the added bonus of 5ac.
