I'm biased because my main is white mage (and I hated leveling puglisit for bard), but the Yagrush is a very good Soldiery weapon, only behind an optimized Novus and High Allagan Crook. I'm not sure on the monk weapon.

-----> Glanzfaust is the MNK soldiery weapon; its in the same boat, behind the High Allagan Baghnaks and the Optimized Novus Sphairai
