    Stat Weighting for Monk?

    I've seen a stat weight for DRG but wondering if anyone has done a mock up for MNK, with Greased Lightning Skill Speed should be worth more for MNKs. I'm currently leveling up my MNK alt and I made the full HQ ilevel 55 set and wondering what I should meld into it.

    IR just increases the chance you will crit, not how much the crit does so the weight on crit would be the same regardless of IR being on or off. I leveled both tanks first so I'm not sure on DPS stats, but I assume critting is 50% more damage? So a traited IR would basically be like a 15% damage increase. What I'm looking for is what someone posted about DRG rotations, it had the weight of each stat like weapon damage was 7.52, STR was 1, Det was .22 etc. I'm trying to see if I 5 meld all the crafted ilevel 55 pieces can I out weigh the Darklight gear, I have about 1800 philo so I can get all the Darklight accessories + belt.

    I dont see skill speed being a ton better due to greased lightning. Unless you have a bard who is able to sing tp than likely greesed lightning makes skill speed worse.

    Ir shouldnt effect the value of crit. Bootshine does as it doesn't benefit from it.

    Be really nice to easymode x. His spreadsheet could easily be modified to answer your question

    that's the opposite of reality actually.

    greased lightning is 5% per stack up to 15%, but based on your current attack speed/global

    greased lightning actually reduces your attack delay and cooldowns by less the higher your skill speed from gear goes.

    they effectively diminish eachother - making the worst weighted stat in the game (skill/spell speed) even less valuable to monks than any other class.

    it really makes no sense to me why greased lightning isn't a flat value, most things scale UP with higher gear levels, greased lightning scales down :\
