Hi all...
I have decided to take "Murphy" head-on... so I have a "Plan" in mind, I want to create the "Robed Tanking Caster".
Now this involves finding certain items of interest.... Vita Items... yes you read it correctly... Vita, but there is a bit of a twist.
This would be the IDEAL setup @ level 55:
Padded Robe:
150% enhanced effect
45+ Vitality
...30+ Intelligence or Heal Mastery
ExtrasStaff or Dagger:

personally think this is a dream item
35+ Vitality
35+ Intelligence or Dexterity
... 150% enhanced effect or 30+ Heal Mastery
ExtrasMain Charm: (Either Healing or Casting)

depending on the charm, another Dream item
35+ Vitality
35+ Intelligence or Dexterity
... 150% enhanced effect or 30+ Heal Mastery
ExtrasNow... put that on a Monk... the stats are harder to figure out, but the main principle of the build is to pump Intelligence to equal that of the base dexterity.
If your starting points are 20, you may want to invest 10 into vitality and remaining into Intelligence, and continue on.
You may ask.... "where is the strength"... well there is none, as this is a casting tanker, more than a melee caster... anyway it is not final, so give me some ideas.
I have already posted an "ISO" in the trade section to see what is currently available...
