Gimp Setup? Monk

Caerloc said:
Yes. I did mention salvage. What i didnt do however was to pretend like it was the only source of gear to be bothered with. It is also not the only thing to ever come out of my mouth when i bother to open it. Do we really need to go over this once again? Havent i eun you and your friend Pchan in the ground enough yet?

Seriously, just go away.

Actually, Mdk didn't even mention Salvage gear in the post you flamed. He said, to be exact
Remember, one should not mention Sxxxxge in a Endgame thread about monks.

Then he says
About kick attacks. I don't have dune boots and don't plan on getting them. I'm sure people can find a use to them especially with the footwork JA now. But I see a lot of people use them w/o the AF2 legs.

And I'll remind everyone thinking of getting kick attack setup that the Hake Habiki drops from an easy Tier1 ZNM and are almost as good as dune boots (It's its bad drop, the good drop being the elem+3 hMP+3 feets). And doing that you get the Trigger item for a Tier II ZNM that drops Hissho hachimaki, the best head WS piece for asuran fist. Both Nms easy to kill with a few 75 people.

Then YOU say
Or one just shouldnt be retarded and think salvage is the only place to look. That sums it up a little bit better. Thanks for trying tho.

Really, what part of his post are you criticizing. He didn't mention Salvage in his post. Yes, I know, he was being ironic in that you say Salvage isn't end-game, but that doesn't change the fact he never mentioned Salvage in his post.

Ah yes good call i did forget about those, but if your mnk lacks acc that bad that you need 2 more over 3 str and 1 store-tp, then you fail hard anyway lol. But no id say CC is far better then specs.

Or the said monk is a non gimp one, eats meat and need PCC. Also lolstoreTP for monk.
 
It seems like everytime I step into a qcdn topic, I see something about salvage. It's obviously the most efficient way to get all your gear. You don't have a black belt? You have no sky gear? You need new weapons? Don't worry, sea/sky/hnm is pretty useless, just do salvage. I'm sure we'll hook you up with all of the above and more in salvage. Salvage the thought.

Or they could let their bards sing songs other than madrigal and stop gimping the whole group to make up for their suckage.

It was a sarcastic comment that he made. Really you were the one that opened the floodgate for more flamebaiting in this topic by mentioning salvage because Mdk actually avoided suggesting anything FROM salvage.

To OP: I would listen to Baj/Diabllos' suggestion of Vender Slops then casually doing Assault for the P. Legs. Jyak more than likely has only played to 18 monk for warrior sub if he's really suggesting rep. subligar at 75 there wont be a huge notice of 5 attack to 3 acc. Is rep. subligar a viable option? Yes if your acc parses well it would be viable for a minimal damage increase. I think it's more of a personal choice.

Caerloc/Uzor, take it to PMs. If it is going to continue, it won't be here.
 
I consider myself a casual player. I have both Repub. Sub and Vendor Slops. I don't notice a real difference when using Repub. Sub. I normally just stick with Slops. The AF pants are kinda worthless in XP.
 
Foravers vs Amemet +1

Hi, this is semi monk end game related... I am wondering why the Foragers is so much better than the Amemet +1

Last time I went to do anything with my mnk, was DM and I borrowed a Kirins Osode and bought a Foragers.. thats when I noticed only a small difference between the foragers and amemet +1.

I think I paid 120k for amemet +1 and 450k for foragers. Just seems like a lot of gil for such a small boost.

I do not have the stats here, as work sux and I cannot access a lot of stuff.

Opinions?

does nothing except +1 attack in case you have odd str already. I believe charger mantle is better.

I don't know what there could have been to notice, since the only difference between the two is Foragers has 1 more STR, which isn't enough to have any effect on anything you do. Maybe it was the combination of the forager's and the osode, over your normal body piece and amemet +1; but there's virtutally no difference between the two.
 
Foragers is better. Barely, and that's the only reason it costs more.

Just like everything else in the game.

Possibly also because it only drops in ENM and isn't crafted (excessively)? Just a thought.

Thats what I recall.. was just +1 on a stat above Amemet +1.. so totally not worth the extra 300K.

What stats on Charger and how to obtain/price?
 
yeah, the increase u get from foragers is slim, only +1str over amemet+1. ive heard varied things about chargers mantle, but have yet to test it out myself. for most melee amemet +1 is a staple piece, unless u can afford to blow the cash on a foragers.
 
Chargers mantle is Def: 7 Attack +20 and r.acc and r.att -10. Obtainable once you have access to Limbus and requires 150 ABCs which comes up to 1.2 mil if you buy em from bazaars for 8k a piece which is not worth it imo. I would stick with Foragers even if they were equal in price due to the STR mod in WSs.
 
Websense is a cruel mistress, Draciot. I don't write the scripts for it, and I'm fairly lucky I get to access QCDN, since forums aren't blocked.
