    There is a rich galka monk/warrior in my LS lvl 50. He has The best gear possible, a few million in gear including cross counters. He has yet to meet a tank he couldn't pull hate from. This includes when he was 49 with a jp pld in an xp party. His WSs are almost as good as my SATAs(Of course when they're not some of my better SATAs :p ). He's outdamage everything he's come against, although he only faced one ranger ever(not the best rng in the world though).

    The pld you know really needs to come away from the game and do some research.
    ANYWAY BIG BEN THINK LIKE THIS ITS LIKE HEY GUYS WHY BE RACIST?? RACISM HURTS EVERYBODY ON INSIDE MAKE BIG BEN SADFACE ITS ALL ABOUT SKILLS CUZ WHEN BIG BEN HAD TO WORK ON FARM AS CHILD BEN HAD TO MAKE FARMING PT MADE OF ASIAN MAN BLACK MAN(THATS ME) MEXICAN MAN CHECHOSLOVAKIAN MAN AND IT WAS BEST FARMING PT EVER CAUSE ALL MEN HAD HQ SHOVELS AND TRACTORS AND KNOW HOW TO PLAY SO FARMING WAS QUITE GOOD

      Ok, I think we've established that yes, monks do very good damage. However. I have 2 chars in the 50-60 range, rng and monk, and when I play my rng, I am very very hesitant to pt with monks that I don't personally know. At this lvl, equips make a huge difference on monks, and I have pt'ed with too many monks who hit (whiff) for 10-15 per fist because they haven't kept their equips updated. It is very understandable that other people have the "gimp monk" stereotype. I think the original poster just wanted to make sure we don't reinforce it ^^

        Exactly, lately I have noticed many under equipped monks and im not saying they should have all the main items at lvl 40 but they dont give an effort to try and obtain them it seems. I had a party yesterday when I was on my paladin and the monk was wearing lvl 14 rings lvl 16 ear rings lvl 30 armor not eating food and this was at lvl 40 ><

                I actualy felt that it is time to try something else until I have money for all the equipment.... I am lvl 42 and was thinking of getting mt Thief to 25. By that time I might have accumilated some gil to buy the stuff, or then at least use it to farm.

                  Not to brag or anything, but that PLD is nuts. I'm currently 55 and have only been outdamaged one time by another melee. That's when we started on Robber Crabs at 52. Well, there was one other time. When I first got Raging Fists and was closing a Fusion chain in Gustav with 455+255...The DRK went Last Resort + Souleater + Berserk and promptly died to Jet Stream shortly after.

                  If you take the time to get the best gear possible for us (Minus Cross-Counters, i'm getting by with the Hooks and I love them. Spartan Cestis coming up in 3 more levels.) you'll have no problems at all. I preach so much Monkism to my linkshell, everyday a new person is leveling it "for fun" or "I want to see what your talking about". Makes you feel really good.

                    I think the main problem with the n00bs/newbies, what ever you want to call them. Is they are basically all leveling whores. They level, and level, and never give time for earning gil or buying/finding new equipment.

                    This is at least what I have noticed.

                    And your PLD friend is a moron. Just tonight I was keeping up with a RNG one level lower than me just fine. MNKs are awesome.

                      By all means he is not a friend so everyone stop saying that lol and your correct on that alot of people just want to lvl and lvl and not farm to get even semi decent equipment

                        Yeah I had a similar thing happen to me. I was looking for a party and it was me, another mnk/war, thf/nin, whm/blm, war/mnk I believe. I decided to get a pld/war bc he was the only one searching around our lv for a party.

                        Well when I invited him and he accpeted he looked at the group and then said "U have no dd, so I'll look for another party, bye."

                          The way I see it is this
                          When I first started the game I wanted monk and was very poorly equiped because of the fact that I was still a n00b because the job of monk is opened to everyone and their mothers. Put it this way I thought mnk/rdm and mnk/drk would be the best combination (Way wrong now IMO). Took a break from monk and started lvling Brd which is at 59 now. Stopped that and came back to my mnk and have made a good impression on most people because of the fact that I am now decently equiped & I will not lvl without food. (still not the best I possibly could be, still want the kote) and I am no longer considered a n00b. Atleast I think I'm not. That could be where the monk is recieving the bad name. mnk/war do not have to open any advanced jobs. So that person could just have lvled mnk and war where as others lvl three or four other jobs previously. This is just my view on it though.
