Ghost Touch handwraps?

[Praxian09]

Is there a set of handwraps that are ghost-touched? Debating making a monk, but only going to if I can find something like that for fighting wriaths, ghost skellys, and the like. I really hate incorporeal miss chances. LOL

Also, any advice on making a solid monk would be appreciative. :)

Yes - they do exist and arent very hard getting if needed.

Nice, mind shedding a little light so I know where to look at?

What series of quests works best for that?

There are no named Ghost Touch handwraps. However, they are available on the general loot tables. Also, I’ve read some monk players posts that imply that the Spectral Gloves, Tharne’s Wrath type ghost touch bonuses are applying to handwraps now.

You often find ghost touch handwraps being sold at the auction house

[t0r012]

aye the are reasonably easy to find at the AH.

I was also offered and accepted a set of +2 ghost touch of lesser elf banes as a reward for red willow ruins a couple nights ago. so you will eventually find some in as a random reward.

I didnt see your reply until now. I see others answered the questions though :).

Like they said....they are in the regular loot table - random drops from any quest and are pretty cheap on the AH.

Couple of things:

1) I'm still new to the game, and as such what some say is cheap at the AH for me is more than I have available to me.
2) Where is the red willow ruins?
3) Would running like say Delera's GY or some House P quests help yield them a bit faster as undead are all over there?

Apologize for the ?'s but I'm still working on what's familiar and I have no clue where red willow ruins is. :)

I got my +2 GT HW from Deleras End reward

I was offered +5 GT HW from Gwylans End reward.

You are better off getting Spectral Gloves and calling it a day. If you have cash from AH. Otherwise get ready to run one PIA mission over and over.

generally chained quests end rewards or end rewards in gianthold.

Don't leave out Etheral Bracers they grant that ability as well...

2) Where is the red willow ruins? House J - the entrance is a gate near one of the shops - sorry I cant think of all the names atm..im not home to be able to check.
3) Would running like say Delera's GY or some House P quests help yield them a bit faster as undead are all over there? I may be wrong but I dont think the quest chain matters..they are just a random drop like most everything else

Dont apologize for questions..that's how you learn ;)

And spectral gloves...I dont think they are high enough lvl to wear either.

[Arvess]

You'll find ghost touched HW's before you get spectral gloves. For delera's, holy or pure good is good enough. Later on, you'll have to decide between disruption or ghost touch. if you are exceedingly lucky (or rich) you can get both.

Well caine they were talking about the gloves ealier but they didn't mention the bracers... though trufully most people perfer to not think about them due to where they drop hehe.

Woops..I didnt even see that post about the gloves :) lol.

You are right about the drop rate for those gloves...it sucks :D

I picked up a pair this week in a chest in the desert. They aren't too uncommon. Keep looking and don't spend alot of money on them.

Spectral Gloves definitely do give the ghost touch benefit to handwraps. However it's going to be much cheaper to buy a set of ghost touched handwraps if you don't want the spectral gloves (or Ethereal Bracers) for any other reason.

Why wouldnt anyone want Spectral Gloves? Theya re really good. And when you can turn them into epic Spectrals their dex goes up to +7

[stilldamom]

If you have not found your ghost touch handwraps yet, please PM me in game. I came across some +3's. It's Stilldamom, I hope you are on Khyber server.

Sure they are really good. They have a price tag to go with that. If someone is a new player they probably wouldn't be able to afford them. If they just want to be able to hit wraiths in Delera's (which would make them too low level for spectral gloves anyway) or want to be able to hit the incorporeal mobs in Orchard as they farm up tapestry fragments just a set of ghost touched handwraps would be fine and a significantly cheaper option.

Youre right they are expensive but its not that hard to make money in this game. I just started in June and I have a pair. Sure I paid a million gold, sure they were half broken, but still worth it in my opinion.

They go for much higher than that on my server it seems. I got mine for 3 million and that was a steal, they usually list for 5-6mil. It's not hard to make money later on. Once I hit Giant Hold or thereabouts it started rolling in pretty fast but before that it was a little slow. They are definitely something to work towards, especially with the ability to turn them epic later on, but in the mean time a ghost touched item is more than fine, especially for lower level things like Delera's where Spectral Gloves won't even be level appropriate.

[Praxian09]

Yea, in this case I'm just talking for low levels. I'm tweaking my monk and playing around with it - so I mean it's all fun and games. :)

But at level 4, I need something to hit wraiths with in Delera's when I go there, and in general any wraith / ghost style undead when I get around to them in dungeons. I have a set of +3 hand wraps, but while those are nice, I'd really hate to have the hit be a miss 'cuz of Incorporealness.

Anywho - thanks for all the options guys! Appreciate it!!
