The Monk Temple Reborn

[Traison]

Monknoob1217 I have big hands so what I do might be uncomfortable for you. I rest my pinky on ctrl, ring on A, middle on W/S, index on D and thumb on spacebar.
As for my right hand, it's on my mouse 100% of the time. I am almost always holding down right mouse button to keep my camera in an optimal spot, and I can quickly click left mouse button to move around if I need to let go of WASD for a few seconds to hit a bit harder hotkey.

123 and Shift+123 are my main 6 attacks. 1 DK 2 Twin 3 Snap Shift+1 Boot Shift+2 True Shift+3 Demo. I put Stance Change on 4 and ToD on 5 and utilize all the buttons around WASD (QERTZXCVFG and `(to the left of 1) along with shift/ctrl modifiers for those buttons, since my hands are so big I can't use alt all that well so I limit my self to Alt+123QEZ and Alt+Spacebar only)

When it comes to the question of does it get easier to do the combos? Absolutely. I remember first getting my monk to 50 and I could barely even do the basic opo opo -> raptor -> coerul combo without messing up, 2 years later or so I can do it with complete muscle memory while talkin to others on mumble or on the phone with friends. Learning to Keep everything going at GL3 speeds and remembering to do out of combat stuff such as form switching and charging chakras will take a long time to get comfortable with, but it will happen over time. Practice is the only way.

So is shoulder tackle now always used when it's off cooldown? I used to always save it as a gap closer. Thanks! Also are we now added fracture into our rotation or it's still only when we can with our TP.

Yes, Shoulder Tackle is used for dps now. UNLESS, you need it after avoiding certain mechanics so you can continue dps'ing quicker. You will be the judge of that in each specific fight off of memory. If nothing else is mandatory then yes use it always.

Have there been any investigations into the DET/SS changes in 3.0? I'm not sure whether to go Fried Okeanis for SS/DET, or Morel Salad for DET/SS or Cock'n'balls for SS/CRIT.

If nobody beats me to it, I'll work on that once I've leveled monk.

That's months away though.

Dervy have calculated the stat weights for DRG:
WD: 8.688
STR: 1
DET: 0.127
CRT: 0.141
SS: 0.096

Now... I don't know how much difference there are between MNK and DRG now, but I really doubt SS is something you want to get. DET and Crit are probably pretty close to each other.

So out of the foods you posted, Morel Salad with it's DET/SS would be the best probably.

I'd imagine crit would be our best stat considering we have a guaranteed crit, and the crit stat now adds damage to our crits. I have no math to back this up, but it's what makes sense in my mind lol

its not quite as simple as that, that crit damage will have to counterbalance the loss of crit chance affecting the damage as a result of the auto crit, as well as the make up for the reduced effectiveness (diminishing returns type effect) on crit chance under the effect on internal release

Wait wait wait...is Cock'n'balls really the name of a new food?

Anyone think a new thread is due? The thread starter hasn't been here in ages.

There are new BLM and DRG threads for the same reason.
