The Monk Temple Reborn

[Ricdeau]

Calling all career MNKs

Do any of you guys have any 500+ Training Dummy parse vids? Most of the MNKs dummy vids online are all very old from the 2.2 days (400+) and i'd like to see what some highly geared up to date MNKs are putting up on dummys.

This is the rotation and video I've been following for quite some time. If there is anything better out there I'd love to see it.

Our static MNK i113 with Nexus puts up 510 consistently with food/no pots. Just wanna see if theres any room for improvement. I've heard people claiming high 500s almost breaking 600. Is this even possible with Magitek wep/FCoB loot?

Was that with party buff or not? Also how long is the parse; two invigorates, one invigorate, no invigorates? And can you link his profile so we can see his gear?

Yes with party buff (edited). 3min. 1 invig from what i saw. His name is xxx (i dont have lodestone access from work)

Unfortunately he switched to another job, but the extra info was helpful. I'm i114 with my Nexus. Party buffed, no food, and not getting screwed on crit I get around 515-520 with two invigorates right until I run dry. So he sounds like he's doing pretty well. Doesn't really sound like anything I'd be concerned about.

Oh yes i know he's a highly skilled player not concerned at all. This is more for my own personal knowlege since i alt as MNK and i'm not nearly as good as him. Also hearing that others are almost pushing 600s makes me want to see it in action as well as motivate him to push harder since he believes that he's tapped out and only gear would push him further. Thanks for the feedback.

Definitely in the territory of being tapped out for his gear and i115 weapon. Once he gets an i130 weapon his DPS will shoot up quite a bit. Increasing weapon damage always has a large impact on DPS. I have not seen any monks in person in action with i130/i135 weapons yet, but I would say upper 500 and around 600 could definitely be possible when you're getting into the i120+ area with gear.
