I find Darklight Body and Head amazing for Monk but on the other hand, the boots and the hands seem usless to me, they take away more than what they give you.
AF hands are better IMO.

The caligae are on the lower end of things. It all comes down to whether or not you will use Fists of Wind for a particular encounter. The enhanced Wind is very good for WS cooldowns. It's like an everlasting Keen Flurry + Quick.

The bracers are far from bad though. AF set only really gives Attack +40, which is great. Bracers on the other hand give Attack +30 and Accuracy +35.

Now, before 1.21 I would have brushed the accuracy buff aside, but it seems to me not everyone has noticed the fix they did to accuracy. Even in Full Party without any accuracy buffs MNk is far from 100%. Missing leads to a much greater DPS loss than 10 less Attack.
