The Monk Temple

Bringing back the topic of Fracture, I actually decided to go back and see how much DPS I could do with and without Fracture use on a dummy.

The MNK gearset I used was i90 w/ Hellish Claws and the following stats: 488 STR, 310 Det, 454 Crit.

The highest I hit for the w/ Fracture and w/o Fracture in a handful of parses so far are:

With Fracture: 374.31
No Fracture: 367.36*
*Note: I actually use Fracture exactly once in the No Fracture parse as part of my opener (helps with optimal timing).

The parser including Fracture was done so that DK or TwS never dropped their effects (timing ToD and Fracture accordingly to ensure this).


Ultimately, it seems cohesive with what has been suggested so far: It is technically an increase, but a rather small one, and comes at the cost of increased TP drain and complexity.

So... Myth busted then?
