Thanks, and yea, I agree, I really didn't go hard core EQ till I was about
16th level, and only reason I did then was because I was getting really
bored waiting for that big FD. Best thing for a monk to do would be to get
that cured silk or mesh, which ever is more redily available and then just
save and wait for good items to present themselves at good costs. It's what
I did, I just happen to have gotten some really good opertunities.
