I have been looking at the stats and to me AK gear provides better stats for DPS. Also, WP gear has a lot less physical defense than AK, but it does have much better mag defense.
If it matters, im a dragoon.
Why is Wanderer Palace gear better than AK?

meaning that the gear is only better for monks?

I would not worry about the pdef/mdef at all.
