Let's see some Monk parsers

What DPS is everyone getting on Ifrit as monk? I average about 15-18 dps (using Cobalt Claws) and staying in the sears. Right now I think my biggest hurdle is the enmity since I don't have archer leveled.

Do you guys use spinning heel right at the start of the fight? I find that I have too much TP at the start because of invigorate, so usually wait till I do 1-2 combos before popping spinning heel.

I usually start with Invigorate buffed before I know I'll engage, which is enough since coupled with elemental fists I don't want to pull hate early in the fight. Knowing I'll be holding back I know I won't have TP issues. So yea, generally I hold back on Spinning Heel, unless for some reason I'm engaging something with next to no TP and/or Invigorate is on CD.

In some encounters, such as Moogle, I pop them both on cooldown and go apeshit.

I see posts all over the place with many different version of parsers. I figure I might as well link up the newest one available and it seems to have some new features and many of the bugs worked out. I think the french side doesn't work very well.

Tachi, I'm using the most current BGParser and it seems to lag way behind and miss alot of hits... is there any settings to do to it other than direct it to the appropriate folder?

This is my highest STATIONARY dps I've managed on mnk so far using mediocre gear so it can easily get higher if I had more +str materia.

However, once Mistress is able to move my dps drops off the deep end depending on how far she runs. I usually finish around 90-110dps on a one move only fight.
