Monk 3.0 CHAKRA UNLEASHED

But the primary use of form shift is to keep your GL stacks so always make sure you form shift into a form where you know you'll keep your stacks,

Thanks Krindor! Good to know. Can you give a practical example of this in a boss fight?

Also do you bother to use FS against trash?

In VA, last boss. When she jumps the time she is in the air is quite long so if you are already are on couerl chances are that GL will drop, but if you finished in opo-opo or raptor, you can form shift to couerl and refresh GL just before it runs out. Another example is A7S were if your group is quick enough in killing the adds you will be short on time to refresh GL and unless you're in couerl at the point when you can attack again you'll lose your stacks. There's a lot of scenarios but most of it is memorizing the downtime and adjust as such depending on the time on GL.

As for thrash, FS to couerl before pull to get GL1.

Is 1600 optimal DPS for a ilvl220 Monk with a 210 weapon ? I have tried everything including food/pot but have not able to complete Nidex dummy challenge :/

The weapon is the biggest dps increase. Avg ilvl almost means nothing without it. Like all 240 gear with a 210 weapon will still produce poor results. In other words, get a better weapon and don't worry too much about meeting SSS checks without the proper weap

I'm having trouble with Monk on Dummy, i can't get to 3 minutes without running out of TP, i've tried restoring it at 700, 650, 600 and i always run out of TP.

This is currently the biggest issue i have with monk, i can't manage it's TP.

I have 768SkS.

I finally managed to complete Nidex dummy task.

I did some research and turned out that i was missing on DET stats which I circumvented by using Food and in the end managed to beat the dummy with 4 sec to spare.

DPS 1660.

Now as you suggested my hunt for better weapon begins

You know det is Monk's second best stat, right? You should be stacking crit. Only time you stack det is when your gear cannot stack crit.


Or you could be one of those people who builds their Monk to have extremely high skill speed, but I honestly don't see it as something worth the trouble.

I know about that, but if i use it i miss Forbidden Chakra on opener, or am i missing something?
