    Titan EX monk DPS

    What's the highest achievable DPS for single monk on this fight? What would be a good number I can aim for with this setup?

    Someone told me I did 203. Is that okay, bad or terrible?

    More along the lines of bad than terrible but it's pretty bad. Even if you drop GL3 between jumps you should still be 250 minimum, and if you play well and don't get Gaoled too often (or technically Gaoled but broken out so quickly you can recover) you can clear 300.

    That being said, your team will determine your DPS a bit here. MNK's DPS rises the longer it stays in GL3 and on the enemy, so a longer fight will actually benefit a MNK more compared to most DPS classes. If your team kills Titan sooner, your personal DPS will probably be lower than if the fight stretches out over the full duration of two Super Bombs.

    Is that number in full i90? And I always lose GL3 with gaol and jump. I usually keep GL1 with geocrush though.

    Your DPS is okay'ish I'd say, it's enough to clear the encounter.
    You might wanna try to keep your GL stacks between the jumps, it's a little harder on the healers but in the long run it boosts your damage considerably.

    In i90 I usually parse between 240-290.

    People, look at his link before giving your comment. He is ilvl83 not ilvl90.

    You did ok damage, BUT, if you push it you can do more. My ilvl78 DRG can dish out 210 DPS on that fight. You might wanna look into the forum to find out what is the maximum DPS rotation for MNK and how to keep GL3 stack when you are dodging mechanism. Understand the fight to know when to pop buff helps tremendously too.

    Yeah I recently started playing monk again and still not remember to use CD sometimes. I'm also not very comfortable popping Blood for Blood in Titan yet in fear of dying to Tumults. Thanks for the feedback, will look into keeping GL3 up.

    This is just 1 good example in a sea of elitism how parsers can HELP someone xD Though I sincerely hope OP that the player who told you didn't do it in spite :P Shame on him if so!

    You need a little bit of luck for that, I get hit like a minimum of 2 times with Goal every fight, our other monk actually makes fun of me because it actually became quite ridiculous.
    If I ever happen to not get hit by it at all which is a really really rare case, I'm parsed around 290-310 DPS, still missing my twintania weapon...
    But there are alot of factors that can lower your DPS like bomb save spot appearing in the back row and you have to back out or you can't keep your stacks after a jump because of stupid movement animation cancel etc...
