To the MONKeys out there... no real discussion..but explain your tricks/tactics.

at the very start however ill do a bootshine from behind instead of DK because DK doesn't apply the debuff for the first rotation since you're neutral and no opo-opo yet.

i think you should do DK first instead. bootshine 100% crit is opo-opo bonus. you're no in opo-opo yet, so its just 130 potency. but doing DK on flank does 150 potency even if you're not in opo-opo.

That's what i do. My rotation--> tod, dk, ts, dm, frac, dk, trst, impulse drive, sp, bs.....

There are many times that your rotation would have to change, like when a mob is close to dying, using a dot is a waste so i would go full burst dmg

I launch steel peek and howling fist in between gcd and mercy stroke when the mob or boss is almost dead. For bosses i use the lb, followed by mercy stroke for extra dmg.

You're right, I double checked and the crit bonus also requires opo-opo >.<

Now I've been doing this for rotation:
DK (no bonus)>twin>demo>frac>ToD
DK (w/ bonus)>twin>snap
BS>twin>demo>frac
DK>twin>snap>refresh frac/tod when needed
BS>twin>demo>refresh frac/tod when needed
DK>twin>snap>refresh frac/tod when needed
BS>twin>demo>frac
....


once i get more gear with skill speed reduction i may be able to fit in 2x impulse drive.

If you are <= 2.10 GCD (which should be obvious with only a little of SS, you are missing a bit DPS not using True Strike (and you move for nothing from rear to flank also). Notice that 0.10 sec is not even to bother you ! And yet, you need 373 to 490 SS to gain only 0.10 sec on your final GCD.

Yes I don't think I have that high of Skill speed yet. But will look to read True Strike when I do.
