Monk 3.0 CHAKRA UNLEASHED

[Letts]

So, what Esoteric pieces are you going after first? Weapon takes 3 weeks, and that sucks, but it does give you a lot of DPS ofc... even though I hate that both our endgame weapons have high SS.

Probably the weapon to get it out of the way, still surprised the esoteric weapon upgraded is on par with the savage raid weapon, no i215 weap this time around I guess.

Where are you getting that DET doesn't do anything for auto attacks? They reduced it's effect on auto attacks, but increased it's stat allocation on pieces. Unless there's been some new math to show that it not longer benefits auto attacks this statement is inaccurate, but if you have some evidence to this then I'd appreciate it if you could link it to me so I can read over it.

For reference from the 3.0 patch notes:
The effect of determination on auto-attacks has been reduced.

It has just been reduced. Crit meanwhile got a buff, so all in all, they are pretty even I would guess.

SS is still not as strong as Crit/Det, and I don't think stacking it would really give you an increase in DPS. And if it does, you would probably lose that advantage because of running out of TP faster.

This is my feeling on the stats currently as well.

Thinking on going the weapon route 1st. I mean it's self explanatory as to why and no other item will give you that big of a increase not to mention allow smoother dps checks.

My only pev is its 990 like what is this extra 90 crap? Seems it's there juuuuuust to make it take 3 weeks.

With critical hit rate now increasing crit damage, does IR also increase crit damage?

sadly no, this goes for all crit rate buffs, ie strait shot, battle litany, etc

Okay, I'm just gonna ask here just in case.
So my group went into Savage A1 yesterday and well I switched to Monk from Bard for expansion so I always feel like I do badly, and us wiping to enrage at 16/20% didn't help much. I was really wondering if you all had some tips for me on the fight. >_>

Need more details on your group comp and DPS that people were doing to really give any advice. Faust is a pretty crazy DPS check, and it appears that SE designed it so that most people will require a bit more gear before getting through. It's certainly not impossible to clear, but for most players is going to be quite difficult at the current gearing state. Just keep in mind that most people that went in to Savage A1 yesterday did not clear Faust because of this, and some others that did clear it did so by the skin of their teeth.

Well, we clear Faust just fine. We run MNK/MNK/MCH/BLM/WAR/PLD/SCH/WHM as well.I usually have me and the other monk around 950-1100 depending on mechanics and all that, blm is right under us and mch right under him again.

A1 accuracy for flank seems to be 570. With how coil was, it can be assumed that A4 acc will be about 600.

Does anyone have a good bis set? I've been fiddling and it seems that to hit around that acc, I have to get an enormous amout of SS :I
While aiming for Crit/Det puts me with too much acc.
