BiS monk bonus armor set

Master Mutaito

Grandfathered
Anyone have any armories I can use as an example? Or if you just know the items please link I want to make a 60 MW/BM.
 
Oh, and i've been leveling my monk in BGs with just volcanic + staff and You do so insanely high damage its almost not fun anymore. lvl 71 atm, and in the 70-79 bracket staff scales to 300 armor.
 
Not sure if it's all BiS but here's what I could find.


Helm: Guise of the Devourer
Shoulders: Volcanic Shoulers
Chest: Volcanic Breastplate
Bracer: Shadowcraft Bracers
Gloves: Gloves of the Hidden Temple
Belt: Shadowcraft Belt
Legs: Volcanic Leggings
Boots: Highlander's Leather Boots

Weapon: Staff of Protection

Cloak: Cloak of Warding

Neck: Prestor's Talisman of Connivery
Rings: Mok'Nathal Clan Ring
Trinkets: Smoking Heart of the Mountain


Shadowcraft belt and bracers for the +200 armor bonus.

Yes this is somewhat BiS, but a heads up if you can't get exactly the belt and bracers you can mix - Shadowcraft gloves and bracers. If you decide to go without the gloves and bracers this would be the BiS belt.

Belt: Lava Belt
A pair of better boots: Boots of Shadow Flame if you're not interested in the speed increase.

As there are no leather bracers for 60s that gives bonus armor going with shadowcraft belt/gloves is useless.

Btw this is guardian BiS too

Question about scaling. I havnt played WoD yet... Do items keep scaling past 9 ilvls when you go to the next bracket? like if your staff is level 19 it keeps on going up? 29/39/49/59?

Yes.

All items scale. So if you for example do skirmishes as a level 90 in the 90-99 bracket with Sulfuras and Frostmourne they both scale up to level 99.

Speaking of 90-99, I really wanna see someone bring a staff of protection into a 99 scaled BG arena so I can see that stats on that thing.
Same thing with the paladin Shen'dralar trinket, that thing has 120 armor according to wowhead.

I grabbed a few BA items and joined a random battleground on my lvl 92 monk.

ahahah, that puts it in more perspective for those that play tanks at 100.
thats INSANE.
Comparatively, a MWF higmaul trinket has 180 bonus armor.

It is insane, yes. I hope they don't fix this just yet, I want to do more research and try out different items! :D

Got the volcanic shoulders (410 BA), chest (1051 BA) and legs (762 BA), and smoking heart of the mountain (410 BA). These plus the staff gave me 4002 bonus armor. (The other staff in that picture is Braxxis' Staff of Slumber - Item - World of Warcraft which scaled to 155 stamina and 876 bonus armor)

Then later I got some other pieces too, got easily up to 4916 BA. It's just... stupid.

I also have a low level monk, might try out a few things with that one too. Not promising, just adding so that this post isn't too offtopic! ;)
