I can afford a few accessories possibly and I have most of the green monk gear from ak. Should i go for making the Relic +1 straight away or should I use my 900 mythology on armor parts instead in the beginning? Hard for me with no experience to guess if the 2 extra base damage on the weapon will grant me more dps than upgrading to ilv 90 gear 1-2 pieces.
Base weapon damage is by far the biggest contributor to damage output increase. The +1 weapon upgrade gives you both that, and a lot of your main stat, STR, to go with it.

For a DD, upgrading the weapon is pretty much always a priority.
