Which epic past life to go for next...?

I currently have 6 epic past lives.
3 for the Doublestrike (feat) that gives me +2 ac and +1 per 10 levels per stack as well as +3% doublestrike when I use it.
3 for Ancient Power that gives me the attack bonus when I use it, as well as the passive +3 maximum HP and +4 per ten character levels.

I'm not sure what to go for now.
I'm a light fist based monk. My primary defense is AC, dodge, conceal/ethereal. I was thinking maybe Enchant Weapon for that +1 to hit and +1 to damage, but it does seem fairly little...

Either that, or I can go ahead and cap out on martial sphere going for just the passive of the +2 AC and +1 AC per 10 levels, so that'll give me +5 ac at lvl 20 which isn't too bad.

Enchant Weapon is OK. Not over the top powerful, but decent.

You can also go for saves or heal amp from divine sphere. That gives som PRR as well, which never hurts.

I would personally go for the 3x Arcane/Enchant Weapon+Elemental Absorb next. Killing things faster is always great, and elemental absorb is extra useful for low mrr classes.

After that 3x divine/hamp+prr so you'll have all 4 stances and epic completionist.

After that it depends what you find most useful, but I would def go for all 4 stances before taking any sphere past 3x.

Or if you want to TR to something else entirely to pick up some heroic/iconic PLs, plan out what would be useful to that class/build.

I'd suggest either Colors of the Queen or the Enchant Weapon one. Both are really good.

Finishing the martial sphere is one of the better choices in my opinion. It's a total of 30 AC at level 1, 45 at level 10, 60 at level 20, and 75 at level 30. PRR, MRR, and HP are nice but that AC means almost nothing hitting you in Heroics.

This is a good point. I recently started my third TR project. While on my first two, their defenses due to AC means they're more or less invincible in heroic (though it matters much less in 20+), the poor third one has like 1 martial EPL and gets hit all the time on builds that would normally very rarely get hit.

I would do 3 X brace for saves and prr, and 3 X enchant weapons for more dps and elemental absorb. That would also give epic completionist, which is good in itself.

As long as you get 3 in a sphere you don't have an 3x active one you'll be good. The target is getting one 3x for each sphere to so you have all the active points going, then I'd finish off primal sphere to get all the hp bonuses.

Now that HAmp is available as a Divine Stance, I very often hesitate between the two, but almost always fall back on HAmp (that's one heck of a drug. Gimme dat HAmp)
In all fairness, +3 to saves at level 34 is not much. But you can never have enough hamp, especially if you have a bard song on or similar.
