Epic Gear for Monk

I have a (currently level 23) traditional TWF monk. All of my gear right now is heroic level, with some of it being as low as ML 12. What basic pieces of epic gear throughout the full level 20-30 range should I be gunning for? I looked through the named handwraps but none of them seem as good as the HE Adamantine Knuckles I'm using now. I looked around for gear advice but most of it is either based around heroic or endgame, and it'll take a good long while to get things like TF or Storm's Harness.
Also, defensive gear so I can solo EH more easily, and, if there's a way to get some better AOE damage, (currently WA is my only option, and I don't have the STR for PA/Cleave/GCleave) that'd be great.
Thanks!

Antipode handwraps for level 23-28 are good. Storm's Harness handwraps for level 29-30 seems to be the standard for those levels. The Morninglord handwraps from the sentient jewel/item guy right before you get to Barovia has some VERY nice handwraps to use against Undead. I threw my sentient jewel into those handwraps because of all the Ravenloft stuff I will be doing.

If I get time, I will post a list of some other things you should find useful as a Monk.

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

I haven't updated my gear list for my monk in about 2 years. I am sure there is better gear out there for them by now.

I just read that the cat followed up by visiting the dog house later that night, dropping some Willie Pete in on the sleeping dog.  #epochsfamiliarFTW

It seems like Epoch never loses his popularity.
Even against donuts.

Notable easy to get items from Ravenloft are:
Mantle of Fury (cloak)
Braided Cutcord (Belt)
Disciple of Dawn (cloth armor)
Both the mornlord and nightmother wraps
And then the wraps from Strahd and necklace from the hut raids (not as easy to get).

I agree with what people say here, for a lot of the gear start with farming it from the quests like the robe from sunrise and morninglord handwraps and then upgrade to the ones from the raids as you get them
