Thread: Monk Post 2.2 Gear Progression Thread

Very Very insightful post by all. Thank you for your time and debate. So judging from what has been said it seems that progression seems to point towards this:

1) Melee Gaskin - Weathered Gloam Brais (+2 Acc, +2 Det)
2) Tremor Earring of Striking - Weathered Gloam Earrings (+12 Acc, +6 Crit, - 11 Det)

Total Soldiery Tomes to spend: 1200

Updated First post to contain gear Progression using Soldiery as of now.

This set-up is mediocre. And it's not BiS at all. Have you even tested a DET build vs CRIT build? I don't think so, judging by your reasoning "I prefer to go CRIT". Prefer it all you want, but the difference between that build and this one http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/LRGE is HUGE.

For your question about T5, 458 is all you need. Not more, not less. You don't believe me, go try it yourself.
