It boils down toy our personal preference Zeon. I currently have 1.5k Kurzick coz I don't like the Luxon sets. Just seems too odd for me.

Saving up for 15k now. Just have a look around or even ask in one of the bigger towns to see what each looks like and make your decision then.

I'm using a mix of the Kurzick 1.5k top and the rest Luxon 1.5k. It looks very nice, as I don't really like the Kurzick pants (they look too big) and don't like the Kurzick 15k top much either (looks too posh).

But yeah, personal preference

I like 15K Kurzick better then all other Luxon and Kurzicks sets for both male an female. I still prefer FoW though

i thought i loved 15k kurz, but 1.5k kurz is actually better looking and cheaper ;/ luxon isnt that bad...if you cant decide, just buy all. (<is currently at 6 sets of armors, and more to come >.<)

and yeah, the stats are the same o.o

If you don't have the money, stick to Droknars/Kaineng armor because it's the cheapest. If you have the money, go with what you think looks the best. Statistically, it's all the same. More information can be found at http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Monk_armor.

guildwiki ftw.

Kurz 1.5k - House Zu Heltzer
Lux 1.5k - Cavalon

kurz 15k - Vasburg Armory
Lux 15k - pfft who cares. :P idk.

just follow the story and you'll end up at these places pretty soon.

Personally, I use the 1.5k + 15k kurzick. I should be getting another set of 1.5k too soon.

I have a rather important question concerning obtaining the armors... If I have donated Luxxon Faction to my guild, can I buy Kurzick 1.5k armor/get into Kurzick zones if I still have more Kurzick Faction than Luxxon?

I like the way that looks Serpico. If I have a male monk, I would probably copy that mix. However, my monk is a female and I love the look of the 15K Kurzick. I actually became a healing monk just do quest all the way up to Vasburg and bought my monk a set of the 15K. Now I am satisfied.

15k luxon handwraps
15k Wanderers chest and leggings
15k Canthan sandals

Basically went through all the screen shots I could find of monk armor, used photoshop to make the "perf" look and then went out and bought it. I'm a happy camper. Course now I have to figure out my dye scheme!

If your going for Status, then FOW armor is the way to go.

If I have to choose between Luxon and Kurzick, then Luxon is much nicer looking.

FoW armor is for status?? what are you talking about listen eveyr armor has the same stats but for Monk this is how the armor goes wana look Prep then go with 15k Kurz want to look cool go with Luxon 15k O and dyeing the armor does matter and white dye doesnt work on any of them it just makes either gray which is ugly or brown
