Monk 3.0 CHAKRA UNLEASHED

[Spartan117]

I've seen a lot of tanks who are bad enough to where I steal aggro constantly in dungeons, or the tank dies and I end up having to serve as backup tank long enough for the tank to get rezzed. Foresight is for those moments. Plus I actually forget to use it when I actually have Mercy Stroke on.


I haven't started doing Savage mode yet, the FC leader's subscription is currently up and he doesn't get paid until later this week. I'll probably start using it then...but that's only if people are good, otherwise we'll never get that low. Such as those 2 weeks of trying to clear Bismarck EX, where the only time I ever saw under 20% was the one attempt where we cleared it.

As someone on Sav A1, I'd like to add that Foresight lowers the dmg of Prey on me from around 3.4k to about 2.3k a hit (it hits 6 times). I've tried keen flurry also, and noticed that it never parried once, even with 40%. It's possible the move is not affected by parry. I've yet to put much use to bloodbath (how much does it heal usually for you guys?)

Sorry for necrophilia.

@ Ryu I would not advise sacrificing a good cross class just because others are bad. Don't make bad people make you bad either. Mercy Stroke has a lot of uses in normal dungeons and it's not like it's going to cost your life tanking a few mobs if the tank is a herp derp. In the case of normal dungeon bosses, just throttle when the tank is bad at emnity generation or gently remind him to use his 1 2 3 combi all the time (whichever the class he is). He has one job that is to tank, you have one job that is to dps, don't try to do both. Same application for raids. If your tank is going to die, say in A1 Savage, that foresight is not ever going to save your party from wiping. Just like final coil gave us I'm too good, you just need to Get Gud Faust (Get Good First).

@ dragonflie A1S has a strict DPS check pre 3rd week (where every tom dick and harry DPS should get their weapons, i see that Ryu already got his chest first this week, and using law weapon ). Prey is entirely healable by your healers and it's the only damage your raid is taking at that moment. I don't see how that foresight is going to help with your progression. And it's a 25% chance it's going to cast prey on you. Foresight has 0 use if prey fails to target you by the end of the fight. I rather have the extra potency to avoid that nasty 1% enrage.
