Myroar's Ravenloft Monk Gear

[Myror]

I was asked about what gear I was planning for my monk Myroar when I surprisingly rolled for Van Richten’s Spectacles. Well I intend it to look like this:

— Silent Avenger Set —
armor: Disciple of the Dawn Clothing: Armor +14, Fortification +202%, Parrying +9, PRR +50, Profane Well Rounded +2, Green slot
belt: Braided Cutcord, Quality Dodge +4%, Blurry, DEX 19, Quality DEX 4, Green slot
cloak: Shadowhail Cloak: Hide +22, Move Silently +22, Deception +16/24, Ghostly, Green slot

— Adherent of the Mists Set —
bracers: Lore-Fueled Packbanner; Insight CON +9, PRR +50, Insight Doublestrike +10, Druidic Stoneshape, Green slot
necklace: Fleetfoot Necklace; Superior Reinforced Fists +1.5(W), Feat: Wind Through the Trees, Natural Armor +20, Wisdom +20, Yellow slot, Green slot
goggles: Van Richten’s Spectacles; Dexterity +20, Reflex +16, Doubleshot +12, Magical Sheltering +52, Blue slot, Green slot
ring1: Perfect Pinnacle; Greater Reinforced Fists +1(W), Deadly +16, Stunning +22, Soul of the Elements, Yellow slot
glaves: Crumbling Gloves; Insight DEX +9, Quality INT +4, Shatter +22, Insight PRR +24, Blue slot

— Other Named Items —
head: Executioner’s Helm: Relentless Fury, Insightful Deception +7/11, Seeker 17, Quality Combat Mastery +4, Green slot
ring2: Ring of Prowess: Melee Power +8, Ranged Power +8, Deadly +14, Accuracy +28, Green slot

— Crafted —
trinket: Cannith; Doublestrike 17, Dodge 15, WIS insight +7
boots: Slavers: CON 17, devotion 185, vertigo 20, WIS quality +4

This gives the following bonuses (ignoring augments)

Armor 23
Fortification 202
Resistance 9 ( + Reflex 16 )
PRR 94
MRR 52 ( capped at 50 )
STR 2 ( I usually augment for +8 )
DEX 35
CON 28
INT 6
WIS 33
CHA 2
Dodge 19 ( can currently only use 13 )
Concealment 20
Incorporeal 10 ( + ghost touch )
Hide 22
Move Silently 22
Sneak attack to Hit +16
Sneak attack to Damage +24
Sneak attack dice +3
Doublestrike 42
Doubleshot 27 (don’t need)
Reinforced fists 1.5W
Natural Armor 20
Deadly 16
Stunning 26
Shatter 26
Vertigo 24
Seeker 17
Melee power 18
Ranged power 18
Accuracy 28
Armor piercing 25
Positive spell power 205
Healing amp 20

Compared to my current gear I lose Healing Amp 41, Resistance 12, Protection 12 and Spell Resistance 71 (plus some other unimportant stuff). The resistance and protection I can partially replace with augments so only a 4 point loss for each.

The advantage of using a cannith trinket is I can craft have spares to bring back healing amp or spell resistance if I situationally need to.

Also there is also a slightly improved DPS option for less PRR of:

gloves: Molten Silver Gauntlets; Feat: Pierce Silver, Deadly +16, Doublestrike +23, Armor-Piercing +32, Blue slot, Green slot
trinket: Cannithl Dodge 15, heal amp 61, insight DEX +7

This option increases doublestrike by 6 and armor piercing by 32 for the loss of PRR 24, DEX 2 and WIS 7

I am using the Shadowhail Cloak because I have one. The Invisible Cloak of Strahd is arguably better but I don’t have one. It can be swapped without adversely affecting anything significant.

I’m not using the Fleetfoot Greaves because I don’t think I need them. After update 38 I will probably exclusively be using the Grandmaster of Flowers ED which means I don’t need the ghostly to get ghost touch and the incorporeal loss is not that big a deal because of the intermitent (if I remember it) incorporeal 25 from Ninja Spy. The lost Speed XV I will replace with Blinding Speed which will replace Epic Reflexes which GMOF can replace (perfection of body I think its called). GMOF also has a core that is nearly as good as FOM. The Reflex 16 and Natural Armor 19 are duplicated on other items (goggles and necklace).

I am currently missing Perfect Pinnacle and Van Richten’s Spectacles.

I would also like (for options) The Invisible Cloak of Strahd and Molten Silver Gauntlets.
