The Monk Temple Reborn

[Atreides]

I dunno why ppl think monk aoe is bad. I parse higher than almost any other class with monk aoe. Better than SMN and BLM. Full GL3, all our buffs, and PB+RB I'm parsing almost 1000-2000 sometimes depending on how many mobs there are. Of course you can only do that so often but even without PB you can still do a crap load, just make sure you use purification and Invigorate as necessary.

While I agree that Monk AoE DPS is really high the Summoner in question must have severaly underperformed to be beaten by Monk AoE because right now SMN AoE is god tier.

Just looking at potency per second, the TK opener isnt worth it. Top is my opener, bottom TK. These values are ignoring crits & xpot & fists of fire.

Your numbers are a little off on most of your potency + buff %. After redoing everything , the TK opener is actually much closer to the standard opener (within 430 pot) Now you might say that is still a big deficiency but you also didn't reapply demo toward the end as its going to wear before you can reapply it on the next rotation. You also don't have ToD anywhere on the TK opener.

Having potency per second isnt really a good way to measure your chart when you have full ticked Dots that shouldn't be, ToD should only have 2 tics running, and none for demo as it doesn't start ticking til after the animation which is about when the next gcd is coming up. Again if you make this chart more accurate youll see the TK opener is on par more than the chart leads to believe.

I still favor the standard opener though

What's the GCD now at 180+?

[reynier]

with GL3 2.05 or around that number, without 2.40 once more around that number. do bear in mind this is a very loose approximation

Can someone please help me with Monk I'm upset that I can't get extremely high dps with my monk which is my only 60. I'd love to be an animal with Monk but so far I'm a failure. I looked at all the rotations and so forth and couldn't perform them with a controller so I moved to kb+M today I'm struggling to find out where I shouldposition my fingers on the keyboard due to the lack of space if you put one hand on the numbers and one hand on the Wasd keys. Please inform me on how you position your fingers and how you remember rotations and lastly doing these rotations constantly do they get easier to remember? Also if you want a video then reply to this post and ask for it. I'll upload it to YouTube with a link thank you very much.

Group your skills how you like and just practice. Eventually muscle memory will do the rest. And space shouldn't be an issue if you enable more hotbars and assign them binds like alt+1.

I got similar when I was just over 600 SS. I want to say it was about 620. I had an assorted mix of dungeon and law gear at the time, maybe food too. I can't remember the particulars.

So where do you position your hands then left on WASD and where do you put your right?
