The Monk Temple Reborn

Is this an unmerged parse? Im getting around 470 unmerged and that was with minimal mechanics. Im just not seeing how its even possible to do 530 unmerged. Maybr im missing something.

Yup, unmerged. Though they didn't got 530~ yet. Just aiming for it.

What's the best way to regain my stacks if PB is down?

[trailmix9999]

Solo or dk bitch?

Best way to build stacks without Pb is

BS > Twin > Demo > DK > True > Snap > Bs > Twin (I do True, just so I can align True and Bs back up) > Twin (Or, I think you can do ToD > Demo, or ToD > Fracture > Demo) > GL3

530 is possible but essentially you have to fail the last phase really hard, or at least, have your group just stand around and let you DPS. (note there's another mnk in this run, but I was still doing DK). 491 is a decent parse, at least to me, but 500 is easily possible without extending the phase to remove the downtime.

Best is a little debatable. First four hits should be Boot-Twin-Demolish-DK to get buffs/debuffs going (they're really that impactful). After that is where it gets different. Most people don't need the headache of switching positions every single combo, so they'll either clip Twin Snakes for hit #5 or Dragon Kick for hit #7. Should be smooth sailing after that either way, doesn't make much of a difference.

If you have steady uptime on a single mob, don't bother with ToD until after you have GL3 back.

im really just trying to get a feel for what solo, no dk bitch, continuous dps should be. It seems 475-495 at around i130 is the norm from what ive seen. With dk bitch it seems 530 could very well be possible given not much mechanics and 135 weapon.

Its doable without a DK bitch and i135 weapon. A know a monk that just got a 523 with i130 weapon.

All you have to do is extend out the last phase of t13 to basically make the downtime moot.

Having a Nin or Bard to be generous with the TP helps a lot too. Allows you to Rockbreaker during the add phase a lot more. Could Rockbreaker the Gust if you kill the Pain quick enough, Rockbreaker the first set of Sins if you stack them, Rockbreaker the Gust X Twin X Sin. Etc.. Thats some more dps if people haven't been doing that already. Along with that, making sure your last rotation on the adds isn't a buff rotation is also a dps increase. Spreading dots if you can't rockbreaker helps, saving Howling Fists during certain parts of add phase helps, having an add up while you transfer into last phase helps you save a PB, depending on your luck with MF and ES too you can squeeze some more dps out of there by applying dots correctly and taking risks with positionals.
