Monk Armor/Outfits
Hi, I'm playing as a monk and I am worried about the lack of "monk armor." I can't wear traditional armor due to its impact on my monks AC. But I don't want to wear ugly robes either. I was hoping that monks would get some type of martial arts gi 🥋 or something similar. I'm still in act 1, will my monk's options improve later in the game?

By monk gear do you mean clothing items other than robes?
yes. With specific bonuses for monk class.

There is magical armor in the game that isn't heavy/medium/ or light. Some of it's very good.

That's great to know! I keep looking for items with the vendors but I've been SOL. Hopefully I'll run into something in act 2 then.

That's not good, and I really don't want to wear robes. But the alternative is playing in underwear and a cape which will definitely get me some weird looks from my family watching me play lol.

Lots of monk gear appears past Act 1. I know I encountered a lot of stuff with unarmed modifiers and abilities etc

Edit: I spoke positively about the game. Apologies. I forgot that's not allowed in the forum.

I have found a few monks gears that looks nice, but i dont like the one that i use (excelent stats tho), so i just use a funny (yet matching) outfit (Astarion is my monk)

And yes, those legendary gloves are neat as ♥♥♥♥, i wish it was possible to mesh the gloves with the outfit

My main is a monk and there is some VERY good monk gear especially towards late game but there's a few pieces in the early to mid as well.

Yes, i consider monk the highest dps in end game, bellow is how his fullset is looking right now, and the unnarmed atk

Some people could consider the img as spoiler, so be advised
