I find your version of awesome misguided.
OK, awesome given how little effort they take.
Quote:Spare hand is fine for trash, the tunic is fine in quests with devils or other things immune to fire I guess. Otherwise, it sucks balls. Unless you don't go the crane path, but why wouldn't you? Ki on crits.
Killing trash as a Monk is kind of important; we're the first melee to get assigned to that. Killing things immune, or even resistant, to fire is kind of important. Also haven't been able to get Oremi's ring yet. That's a lot more effort there than the Frozen Tunic takes. As I said; build specific. With Oremi's Ring, I'd probably get less use out of it.
Ki on crits alone is not enough to finance my ki usage against most bosses, or if I'm doing heavy stunning on trash.
I guess, overall, my definition of "awesome" is basically "best in slot, given what else I have, in important parts of the end-game". Both qualify for me, and, I would think, many other Monks.
