Wouldn't it technically be easier to just hope an enemy casts Iron Mist on you giving you 100% immunity to everything but lightning?

Oh and you forgot Grasping Earth gives you an AL bonus.

Isn't there a Monk skill thats called Convert Hexes or something (it removes all your hexes and turns them into armor... I think it may only give armor for every Necromancer hex... Hmmm)? In a 12v12 and a hell of a lot of hexes you could probably triple that number.

Anyway, I don't play a Monk, so I wouldn't know

I am happy with having 90 armor on my monk - that's enough to annoy most attackers coming after me. *g* (purely itembased as well ^^)
Classic hunting builds include buffs for armor - but getting past 150/200 usually isn't really doing much anymore. I am curious thou' if there is a cap on armor...

Good thoughts on the 8al shield and +5 weapon, that was the kind of thing I knew I'd miss.

I didn't add in Grasping Earth or Convert Hexes because I figured it would then mean that I was relying on enemies, but then again, I did add in Watch Yourself...So if you add in Grasping you get +24 to Physical and Convert Hexes (against 9 Necros with 29 total hexes) gives you an added 290 armor so you would be at 786 total (I think) and 810 against Physical...not bad

I thought about that too but figured it is not really armor, but immunity, I had the same thought with Mist Form which essentially gives you immunity to all attack damage.

I thought of those too, but the mantras of [element] aren't really armor and since phys and ele resistance are stances you can only use one at a time and I opted for the warrior stances that give armor to everything...maybe it would be better to use Phys Resist to balance out the difference between the physical and elemental armor...oh well

There is. We did some testing about a year ago and the number we came to was 180 I think

well that makes all of this even more useless then
