Monk- general discussion and feedback

[Lucipurr]

Odd that in all these discussions nobody seems to be running out of TP.

Greased Lightning duration is my #1 issue. TP is #2.

Same here. I usually ran out of TP after a minute. Unfortunately your gonna have to level dragoon to 34 for invigorate (+400 TP) and blood for blood.

Invigorate does extend the time you can be attacking constantly without slowing down significantly, I try to remember to pop it at about 500 tp remaining instead of zero to maximise timer, although remaining TP will get lower and lower after each use until you are forced to slow down between timers, but it takes much much longer to get to that point.

What rotation are you using? ? If you use ID, this will be the case. I use fracture and still have little/no problems.
The ID rotation is VERY TP starved, and even fracture is high TP.

Only 22 for Invigorate.
34 is for Blood for Blood.

Greased Lightning duration is fine imo. Honestly, I know it sucks to drop it, but it is an integral part of MNK's high risk high reward style, and even with the acceptable amounts of dropping the buff for current content MNK performs exceptionally well.

Furthermore, they are tweaking content to be slightly more melee friendly in 2.1 so I don't see an extension to GL coming any time son, nor do I feel it is necessary.

As for TP, I rarely have TP issues as well. Even in Turn 4 I am able to spare enough to drop in a bunch of IDs and Fracture for the Dreadnaught burns. In general though, how much TP trouble you have is also determined by the party's collective DPS. If you are carrying DPS, you will run out of TP more often since the fight drags out longer.

5) REmove AotD out from rotation and increase CD up to 25-30 seconds

This needs to be fixed would be nice to silence without having opo up.

Rock breaker. Use it. Love it. Abuse it.

I do not feel one ilm punch needs to be modified at all. There are uses for it, though very little. I see it as a skill that will be a part of every pvpers rotation. I am assuming thats exactly what it is designed for.

GL duration would be fine if we had a shoulder tackle with 20 30 sec CD and a fist of wind buff with a better movement speed and lower cd to avoid aoe damage faster and get closer to the bosses asap ; it will more enjoyable to play that class and more skillfull ; or add a new tp skill wich push u back enough to avoid the aoes with a cd reduction on Shoulder Tackle .....

with one of those suggestions , i think , that monks will really enjoy their jobs
