Str: +34 (3+ Storm) (+61-74 total w/2x Str meld gloves) Int: +14 (+41-54 total w/2x Int meld head) Atk: +24 DPS: 39.39
Looking for thoughts and opinions here. I chose the Electrum Monocle because it has 4 int off the bat and can be Int melded, which is only one of two things a Monk can Int meld. The draw of the AF head is the 25 Int. With a top tier IV materia the monocle comes to 24 so I figure even a shitty 2x meld could easily surpass it.
Glove selection seriously sucks for Monk so I went with Fingerless Raptor because it has a little Atk Power + on it from the start and can be Str melded, one of two slots for Monk as with Int.
I know double melds are expensive and can potentially blow up in my face but I only have to try on two pieces, 3 max if I go with the Giantsgall Claws which I may only single-meld due to their availability. The + total is based on a 2x meld with the lowest III and IV and the highest two IVs. With a single meld on the Claws I'd be looking at another 11-20 Str or Int, whichever I need.
I left the rings blank because I can easily switch them in and out to fill in the necessary stat gaps. Additionally I left Darklight out of this because of the super low drop rate and plus there's tons of people ahead of me who could use them anyway lol.
Will do. Any thoughts on the gear itself? Don't want to overlook anything. I took the new 1.23 gear into account too, the Coliseum stuff is kind of meh for Monk.
