The Monk Temple Reborn

[w153m4n]

hmm this made me wonder whether it means MNK should just stack SS since we won't have TP issue, and also kinda explain why Purification is a lv58 skill, considering if not this skill is useless ^^;

I'm i180 with i190 weapon and did 1122 unbuffed solo over 4 minutes on dummy. 1180 isn't too far fetched.

Howdy! I'm the monk in question. The parse is without outside support, with the party buff and Black Truffle Risotto. I tried it again earlier and recorded it this time, so I'll post it whenever it's done.

I suppose this demonstrates that monks can entirely handle there being no BRD/MCH, (or them spontaneously combusting,) and rebound easily. But is our loss of damage doing this in normal circumstances a profit for the raid? I dunno.

Im using fracture alot now. Im going be using purification over fbchakra if raids are little to no downtime. Also I hit full 180 w190 wep. I did a little over 4 min parse and ended at 1200 exactly. Food,party,no pot. 21% crit, which seems odd. Does anyone else feel like your crit %'s suck now or is that just me?

Did u skip fc on that 1.2k parse? It seems that drg nin and mnk r all balance now. Now we need to see how we do outside of dummy.

the dps increase of using fracture will be less than the dps decrease of loosing forbidden chakra, just an fyi.
also as to your concern about crit, we no longer get as much crit chance per point of crit, so thats probably why it feels lower.

I don't think forbidden is like 80 DPS. Fracture is.

...?

Fracture = 220 potency. You replaced another GCD skill with it, IE a skill in your rotation which do an average of around 175 potency. IE you need 8 fractures for every FC you fire off, over 2 minutes of full duration fracture ticks. Worth the TP and (depending on the fight) risk of delaying GL3 application?

Wait so the critical chance got nerf?

It didn't exactly got nerfed but adjusted to our level, we're back to Darklight, so while out stats do seem way higher than before they are in fact lower because of the higher stat requirement for a level 60 job.
