so I'm thinking of either make a fully melee monk or a hybrid monk
I have currently this staffset:
level 0 59 ee
level 5 65 ee
level 10 90 ee
level 20 107 ee
level 30 98 ee
level 40 117 ee
level 55 129 ee

I have 1500ish fg to spend on it so pls tell me what armors and charms should I aim for/ level
ty for advices

what do your heal charms look like?

well I have 98 ee 55 69 ee 30 59 ee 15 currently but i know i have to buy few others and maybe upgrade these

I will say heal charms are VERY important in a hybrid build to be effective. You have to be able to heal more than the monsters are hitting you.

To be honest I don't know how much gear you will be able to get for 1500.

Things you should be looking for are very expensive and very scarce.

On both your armor and charms you should be looking for dual stat mods. such as str/hm dex/hm str/int dex/int str/max mana or mpa dex/ max mana mpa

how are you planning on stating for a hybrid melee build

thats another question I forgot to ask;)
how should I spend stat points?
edit: and i can get arround 2k fg if i sell some of my eq
and for start i might just get eq what i can hardly go with and i will keep improving it

for hybrid melee builds i suggest get a base of 70 int.

put the rest into either str or dex depending on your gear

If you cant heal yourselves, just go full vita. Then you get the HP and you dont have to heal

ty for advics so far

So far everything Mooj has stated is correct.

I stat my build differently with the gear that I use:
EE weapons (mine are worse than yours)
Strength Robes early in the levels... just because quick damage cata / arena good
Then HM robes from level 30 upwards

Int... enough to reach 50
Dex... enought to reach 70 (if you are in the back... you do not need to worry so much on this
Str... Rest

Yes... I can solo in arena with that setup... but that is using my old 34 int charm to reduce magic damage... I now have a 41% HM charm for main, and will use this when cata'ing in groups from level 40 up... might try this out solo'ing later.

My MQ setup is not great... but does the job:

Mythical godwood staff
Level Req: 55
Damage: 121 to 324
+86% Enhanced Effect
+3% Mind Numb
+1% Block
+1% Critical Flux
+16% Heal Mastery

Mystical nightshade robe
Level Req: 35
Defense: 0 to 16
+1 Life Regen
+1 to 19 Mana per Kill
+33% Heal Mastery

Mythical focused heal XI
Level Req: 40
Heals: 85 to 102
Mana Cost: 105
+339 Max Life
+2 Life Regen
+2% Mind Numb
+41% Heal Mastery
+2% Power Shot

Mystical focused heal XIV Acc for now... just testing it out with HM Main
Level Req: 55
Heals: 112 to 134
Mana Cost: 135
+60% Enhanced Effect
+11 Strength
+20 Dexterity
