The only time you need monuments and pieces is when you're just starting(Noob). You will eventually end up with more Monuments and Pieces than you could ever use. The main reason is the terrible Skill Gem drop rate from Dailies.

The 40AP daily when you're farming for Gold Skill Gems has >Double the drop rat for Monuments. For example: Assassin Gold Skill Gems have a ~25% drop rate, while Monuments have ~58% drop rate + ~80% drop rate for pieces on the same run.

Even Ignoring Event Shop and Box Events containing Monuments & Pieces you will end up with more than enouh anyways.
