Scars of Velious
Anonymous
I play a shaman, a warrior, and a monk. Out of all them, verant seems to show the most favor for monks.. Monks keep getting better and better weapons. Where-as warriors are getting semi-ignored (not really, but just not getting as much as monks) and shaman are getting REALLY ignored, as are druids. Not complaining but just want to point that out =)Great weapon though, id use it =)
Do you know WHY monks get awesome dmg/dly ratio weps? Because that is a monk's JOB. Look at some of our armor, ac-wise, then look at a warrior's armor. Very little comparison. Monk's get get crap ac gear cuz all they have to do to drop the mob's aggro is FD, get back up, and continue beatin the #*# out of him. Sure, some mobs no when you get up, just stay FD'd a bit longer and let the war/wiz rack up some hate. Tell me a non-velious piece of armor that monks can wear above 20ac...very few, if any. If its not enough that we CAN'T wear the armor, VI gives us a cap to wt., which means we have to dish out extra cash to have low wt., high ac armor. AT LEAST 20% of a monk's load of crap is his 1) 2hb 2) two weps. War's can carry all the sh*t they want, and they get no ac nerf. Because War's were MEANT to tank, take dmg, etc etc. Monks were MEANT to deal a ton of dmg, very fast, but NOT tank.
Hello and welcome to Everquest )
Verant seems to think that Monks should all have these "uber" 2HB weapons that are scarcer than Cobalt Breastplates!
Yikes!

Id like to mimic Ceum...
Proof that you are an idiot.
The warrior epic (Which you obviously have no idea what it is) is a 2hs that when right clicked on turns into dual 1hs weapons.

Hmm, are you really a warrior, or just a person without a life who holds a grudge against monks? If you even remotely payed attention to the warrior epic, you'd know that it splits into a pair of 1hs weapons that are quite good. Don't whine just cause somebody else got something good, especially when you don't even know what you're comparing it to.

sighs must be a caster... ok as a warrior i like the idea of sword and shield let the rangers dule weld at higher levels and the pal and Sk do the 2 handed thing... but i cant bash is pont less and almost never stuns our kick caps at 151 till 50th bash caps around the same if i remember.. but bash should stun more i amn how many of us tanks get stuned after a bash of 1 hp and at 10th leve i hit with a 6 dam wep as hard as a wood elf bard i have 40 + str on him bash dam at most 5 and i could not eve stun a levle 1 mob.. monks are way over powered and a o handed blund that has ac 10 give me a break... how many sword warriors use have Ac on them??

First off...USE PERIODS FOR SOMETHING OTHER THAN JUST ...
It took me about ten times of reading your post over and over again untill I understood it about 50%. I think you were talking about that you really liked the AC of a sheild but one 1hs weapon just doesnt work you you. Well, even when a weapon that is 2hs or something has AC, you still cant use the Bash skill with that weapon. For example the Tower Guards Blade (16/36 5ac 2hs, drops off top floor dalnir mobs, rarity is about: Between uncommon and rare). I equipped it on my low level SK hoping I could use bash with it. It didnt work so I just gave it up. And also, its 10 ac? Lets compare some crappy low ac monk armor to crafted. Crafted BP: 22 AC Highest AC robe/tunic I have ever seen that under level 60's use: 12 ac
Also, if you are elvel ten why do you have your epic quest in your head right now? Hell, if you wanted for HP and stuff than you shouldnt have been some puzzy small race like a halfling or wood elf. Ogres RULE when it comes to warrioring. LEts see, higher stamina for heavy weapons/hp +++, then there is that 150strength you can start out with. And also that fact that EVERYONE LOVES a MEatsheild. And they can use boulders for when you gets higher level. They also have sheildless bash(Slam). Problems(Not many compared to dinky halflins etc etc): Faction(Which can be easily raised), too big to fit in some pleces(Buy some cheap Ant Legs potions or get some shammy to shrink you), and lets see what else... well... nothing else besides that you cant wear a hero bracer.
Now, if anything here wasnt clarifying what you were complaining about please say what I missed in a clear legible way.

"... how many sword warriors use have Ac on them??"
15, to be exact. Plus 6 Piercers, 1 1HB, 1 2HB, and the Shield of the Slain Unicorn.
8 1HS ranging from +3AC to +12AC (!!!!)
and
7 2HS ranging from +5AC to +15AC (!!!!!)
How many weapons do Monks get that have ANY AC AT ALL?
2. Yay. =/
1 1HB (One that a Warrior can use, too <g>)
and
1 2HB The One you're complaining about having 10AC
Get a Clue, n00b.

If you think a warrior really is getting screwed and you think that another class is getting allllll the good stuff that is uber yet cheap and they have a DD at level 2 that does 5 billion dmg that is an AE and kills everything in zone. Well, before you say anything like that and complain that your class is getting screwed, play that class that you think is so awesome and see how hard it is. I mean, Monks gets FD at level 17. And they have to be level 23 with it capped for it to start working. Only then can they start feign pulling (Which takes a while to master). Please, play that class before you say that they are getting it all good.

Looks like I hit it spot on with my first post... you are just an idiot who hates monks :-) Have you ever seen a monk try to tank at upper levels? Have you ever seen what happens to a monk when FD fails? They don't get a second chance. You claim warriors don't have many more hitpoints, that is a crock. Try something closer too 1000 more, unbuffed. Furthermore, Warriors have a much higher AC than monks, or any other class for that matter. If you are a level 10 and can't stun a level 1, you are doing something wrong. Try training perhaps? I've been stunning things from the moment I got the skill with my warrior. A monk who is tanking at high level will find himself to be dead, not feigning, within a very quick time unless you have a cleric dedicated to his health. Mend won't save you there. Where pulling comes in, yes, some classes are better than others, but a warrior isn't a bad one at all. Warriors get bows, and have the HP to take the extra beating they may get bringing in the catch. By the time you're in any group that really needs to do pulling, you'll have SoW casters anyway. Go to any raid on an 'uber' mob, and you will find that it is warriors who are in the first wave, taking and dealing damage. One final note, if you want to argue, it helps if you are at least somewhat literate. It took me as long to read your post as it did to write this reply. Happy hunting to you, come back and let us know when you reach level 10.

Some monks have good ac too ) but still on average 600- 700 less hp than warriors and pallies. I'm breaking 1200 ac with 3350hp fully buffed with bulwark ac and shissar agi+ atm lvl 59. I can take a beaten, can also take down a warrior in a duel too ) Monks can be uber if ya give them the right stuff, gets easier after 55 with weight add, 60 will be greeat! I'm iksar too so less hp than human monks so they have comparable hp to warriors if they play there cards right
1400hp and 987AC at level 52 Iksar Monk...unbuffed. /shrug. Tank still does exactly that....tank. I pull, I FD, tank snags it, we kill it...TOGETHER....end of story.

Yer right, monk will own a war in a duel, especially if they have the fungi and sow, just kite him around while fungi does its work. Oh, and a Haste+anymonkusable2hboutthereover20dmg helps ). What the hell if Monks get some cool ac, we dish out to much b4 we get rocked. Monks ( if they lose ) usually have about 3/4 more of that war's hp under his belt before he dies.

This is a VERY nice monk weapon, as a druid i would like to see a monk in my group with this badboy going. They keep their ac +some because of the low weight and can still dish out great damage :) Love to see new good weapons for monks Verant.

the problem is that its 2hb. most only go around killing with their fighting batons or if their un-twinked(rare), they use their fists. i have yet to see a monk that uses 2hb as their main fighting skill
one big thing that comes to mind is damage shields.. quading with 11 delay fists(the dly with epic effect + FBSS) even against a little wizard damage shield(2 points per hit) can sting quite a bit.. I don't think I even need to mention mage DS's
monks also taunt much less with a slower weapon.. which, on big raids, lets you live longer
and this can far far out damage fighting batons.. but I doubt it can out damage a monks epic fists

the truth is at higher (50+) levels monks have to resort to 2HB. My monk is untwinked (well, he is my only char) and still uses his Wu Stick and KD - but i have maxxed my 2hb skills for the day I can get a hold of a tranquil staff or some other kick *** 2hb weap. Me - I like the 1hb, but there are much better 2hb out there :(

Fighting batons? What are you in Oasis or something? All upper level Monks use 2HB, and anyone who is high enough to get this item will have maxed it long ago.

Oh, only 61-63, then 45 seems like a realistic level to attain it :P
