Monk, evasion or ES stack? or mix of both?

Which is ideal for monk? Should I stack Evasion or ES? or get a mix of both?

Yes
Get both
Both

Some things to consider:

There is a passive node that gives ES based on how much evasion is on your chest piece, so consider take a chest with only evasion.

There is a passive that give evasion based on the ES on your head piece, so consider taking a helmet with only ES.

My personal opinion, when making gear decisions, resistances are the most important stat.

Or play Ice Strike and defense won't matter because you instantly freeze everything, including bosses.

Mix on both, helmet as much ES as possble, chest as much evasion as possible. Take the nodes that gives ES based on your evasion and vise versa.
Getting your resistances to 75% is a must for mapping. I had to change my entire build when I started mapping to freez build cause I was getting nuked.
