Erm, if you tell us which build you want, it'd be alot easier..
Asura/FO, Combo, or physical?
Asura/FO = FO requires mainly Str/atk, Asura is based on Str + Int, int for the more Damage. (Asura takes all your SP. so you'd better grab some Grapjejuice) Also Dex for the casting time, or if you have some zeny, get a phen clip, Asura can be innerupted~ FO Can't.
Physical = melee. just skills as raging triffecta blow (Or however it's called). I think agi + Str is usefull. :3
Combo = Skills as raging thrust, tiger...knuckle... (or w/e I don't know the names so well.)
I say just Str and Dex for the extra hit.
About Equips:
You asked for the 'best' so that's what you get: Megs, kaho, DL Sleips, DI Midgear, Maya/Toad valk, TTH Suiken, etcetc.
If you can't afford, stay at an garm claw, thara guard, status armor or something. Would also do. :3
(Eww.. Don't flame me, I never played Champ/monk. This is just pure how I think it is)
