Monk, Expected DPS, and Encounters

[adahn]

in terms of reading the numbers though, atomos hp is a little too low. cad fight is skewed because of the boss split (so for smn etc the number is inflated). if you want to get a good monk parse that also matters it's gotta be turn 8. turn 7 is also very static though there's a lot of RNG affecting your dps.

I was referring to Kitfox's and ufufu's discussion about practicing, not about measuring DPS. Cad is a rather good basic fight with basic mechanics to get good practice with execution. Upgrade that to Titan EX, then finally Levi. If you can clear all those while maintaining full DPS, then you should be good to go from a basic mechanics perspective on anything in the game.


As a sidenote, Cad is just fine for measuring Monk ST parses.

Off topic, but what's that red goggles you're wearing?
