yes, monks do need ac, but they typically don't get it from items that give high ac themselves. this is why armor along the lines of Wu's fighting armor exists and is monk only, monks tend to get a large amount of their ac from agility, rather than ac from the item itself. so just stop screaming about how every item that weighs under 1 pound is "made for monks" i'm tired of hearing it.

Well, I don't disagree with the heading, monks need good loving jsut as much as the next class...

However, sir, you know jack all about the game. Show me one monk above level... um 15, wearing a serpentine bracer, and I'll say, oh yeah, AGI, DUDE, WOW! I think not... the AGI required to make up a single AC runs in the range of two to three... to make up this bracer, I'd need nearly 50 AGI... not that I, a monk, need resists or nothin.

Oh, by the way, how many monks do you know that raid Sleepers in Wu's Fighting? I'd just as soon pull up some lacy panties for AC and set to work.

#Idayen, Posted: Aug 26 2001 at 9:05 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) i agree every decent item i've seen for rogues says this is perfect for monks. it is lighter then 1 pound, and BTW there isn't a better one for rogues according to this site.

Uhmm that's pretty true, except for the fact that AC on items and bonuses from agi stack. And MOST of any monks AC does come from the AC on gear not agility (even with 200 or higher agi.) It's true that this is a good warrior item, but all the tanks i know in the lvl range of aquiring this item (and i am from Tallon so no UBER tanks here) already have 200 or higher str when in almost ANY type of group. The only reason i can see a warrior high enough to get this item wanting it is that they have pathetically low resists, or are one of the races that goes for high dex/proc'n weapons as king and needs a boost to their str.

Have you ever even seen the Wu's stats...they are great for pre-thrity-five or so (now that all the expansion gear is out), but saying that the fact that Wu's is monk only and all the pieces have a little agi on em and ***** for AC means that all monks should go for agi way before they go for AC and HP is completely moronic.

Next time you want a monk to even think about using his/her tstaff/fighter's staff/CF's think about the fact that most of the time we do enough dmg to take agro for a fair amount of time and 1 failed FD will result in death... Sure, we could not do dmg, but if you want an effective group with a monk in it the monk had better have good AC/hp.

And yes, this item IS made for monks. If it want't no drop i would say that it wasn't, but any warrior that is with people who can get this item could take the same people and get and item that is WAY better for em with the same people. Why take loot that some poor monk would use forever probly, when you can get something better in a matter of hours and will just end up destroying the item eventually anyway?
