I think the important thing to remember about ranking these sets of gear is that the differences are incredibly small. The top 25-50% are probably all just a few points different.

500 accuracy is more than safe. It's actually a relatively large mistake that will lead to poor optimization, since that is what this thread is about.

I don't understand the argument of 491 skill...

Out of curiosity, was your miss an auto attack or a skill? I've had 100% accuracy on skills with 99.9% accuracy on auto attack a few times. I'm wonder if they have different accuracy caps. Frankly I...

I answered it. The answer is that it doesn't matter, there is no magic number.

Managing your tp IS restricting your skills. I don't use ID specifically because I have more skill speed than I would like and don't have the luxury of a pocket bard spamming tp song. Likewise I...

You contradicted yourself. You do have TP issues if you have to manage your TP very strictly. Managing it strictly presumably means you are not using the ideal skills. I don't have anywhere near 491...

Don't even look at stats until you're 50, then just go with higher ilvl until you can choose between the two i90 sets. People say 491 to get 6 skills in a rotation. I think that's silly. I think...

Pure str. There is no alternative argument for PvE and monks in PvP is just funny.

Get as little skill speed as possible.

Use it right before the last time he does the multiple stomp attack thing. That's the only dangerous part of the fight, barring people messing up.

Interesting that the only difference between that and the rank 1 set you linked is 24 crit into 24 skill speed. What are the weights given to SS and crit, if I might ask?

I'm fairly certain there was an error in whatever program are using. The stats are just way too low. Only looking at skill speed, the weapon, chest, and boots push you over the total of 58.

The...

Right, those were the stats for it with Allagan chest. The stats linked my newer post were using the AF2 chest, sorry if that wasn't clear.

That can't be right. Those numbers are far too low. Just compare it with the last one I linked, which did use an AF2 chest.

Nope, still going to go cry in a corner. If I can't beat a machine, what good am I?

Sorry. 138 Accuracy, 115 crit, 99 det, 56 SS. Pre food. Comparable to your 2nd set, that's +5acc(Irrelevant if 131 hits the cap) -29crit, +15det, -2SS.

I guess it's hard to say what's actually...

Haha, yeah. It was silly of me to include str.

As for the food, I guess I didn't look very deeply into that. I agree, buttons are better than accuracy food. I would then swap in the monk AF2 chest...

I think the best set will be:
Allagan Wep
Allagan Helm
Allagan Chest
Allagan Gloves
Allagan Belt
AF2 Pants
Allagan Boots
Allagan DRG Neck
AF2 Earrings

So basically the lower hp the member targetered the longer they have to run away from the mine? Teloc isn't necesarily an outlier to that example because the mine spawns at his feet, whereas the...

Gale cut sure did get a big buff in this version. Or is the party in that video using something to mitigate it? We need to see their gear and buff bars. Maybe water elemental attacks weaken wind? Do...

I might believe it if it was turn 2 or something. Turn 4 already has helm, boots, necklace, and belt.

The only reason to not go R+1 first is if your tank already can't hold agro from you. In which case, you should still get R+1 and tell him to learn his class better.

You have a few options. First you need to pick if you want to rush BiS or if you just want to get full i90s asap. Then for BiS you need to decide if you value SS, Det, or Crit. Everyone seems to have...

And I use it every chance I get on them! Which, unfortunately, isn't very often.

Haha..you're funny. One Ilm Punch actually having a use. Don't be silly. Why would they give mobs buffs that can actually be removed? That might make monk useful for something other than damage and...
