    2.06 GCD here, I usually ride top threat after tanks on Twintania, and I can make it through the whole fight without ever having to stop or even considerably slow DPSing and that's without paeon or ever going into conflags (now true, if I don't get in a conflag, though, I do usually get to <100 TP by the time the second neurolink drops, but divebomb gives you a breather to regain so that doesn't really matter). Learn to pace yourself and use Invigorate. SS is a useful stat.

    I'm really curious how many fights in the game you actually run out of TP on. In my experience there aren't many. Turn 4 is about the only one I ever have to really slow down at certain parts to retain TP for Rockbreaker spamming on spiders.

    I agree my parser has me around 310 dps on twin so I'm always second in Aggro so never in the flag.

    Total fight or time-on-target Twintania DPS?

    Hydra, t1, almost t2, t4 (way worse now that I can stance change on soldiers), t5 before divebombs (unless I get conflag then I /cheer), Titan HM and Ultima HM. What I am curious about is how monks are not running out of TP...

    I hit invigorate as soon as I am low enough to not waste TP but that isn't enough to keep me going long. I don't use ID and I don't use fracture anymore. Since the patch my TP has become even harder to keep up.

    EDIT: 2.03 cooldown atm

    60tp per tick... around 70 with invigorate.

    Bootshine > True strike > Snap punch
    60 + 50 + 50 = 160
    2.03 + 2.03 + 2.03 = 6.09 seconds

    That is about 2 ticks worth of TP in that time which is around 140 TP... I used 160 at least in that time.

    Sorry for any errors... its very late/early.

    T1 - Don't understand unless your group is very low dps
    T2 - Shouldn't come close to "almost" - With running out, dodging laser and random rots. Fairly safe to go balls out.
    T4 - You can run out easy if you don't have a good system down. I've found a nice way to dps 100% and not run out. Without the aid of a bard.
    T5 - I've only got to divebombs, but tp was never an issue. I can't give good insight on this fight, yet =[ Mega Sadface

    TP has got BETTER for me after patch.
