    Monk and Turn 7

    Before i start, i made a mistake in the title and do not know how to change the information. this is for turn 7 NOT turn 8

    I repeat Turn 7 not turn 8 Thank you!

    Hi guys i need some help and some tips. My dps is really lacking in T7. I don't know why. I try to maintain my dots as much as possible, use IR and BfB when up, though i generally don't use fracture.

    My rotation is simple

    DK > TW > SP
    BS > TS > SP

    I add DM and ToD as needed

    My dps ranges around the 250 mark. I am not badly geared but simply my dps is seriously lacking i feel compared to my other team mates and i don't want be the one dragging them down. So with that said, any advice on this turn would be immensely appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!

    1) What's your accuracy? You might be missing some attacks which would lead to a major DPS loss if you missed one of your combos.

    2) Are you somehow losing your Greased Lightning stacks? I can't fathom you getting 250 DPS if you're always on the boss with 3 stacks of Greased Lightning all the time.

    3) Did your team assign you for a specific job? (IE: homing missile, brain jack, etc.)

    ACC is 475 though will be a bit higher after today (picking up Hero bracelet to replace maiming bracelet). However i miss like 2-3 in 2000 attacks.

    At times yes im losing them. Especially when screech is on me and i have to run all the way to the back and position so everyone isnt petrified

    otherwise im just dpsing as normal. Of course the ACT might be reading wrong, but not sure... But i kinda feel my dps is lower than it should be

    here is my current:

    And what ill have by tonight/tomorrow

    http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/MD0G

    Though if i wanted more ACC i could go Inferno bangles instead of Hero's bracelets. just an option

    Just to add, im not on boss full time, im also switching to adds when they pop as well (but that goes without saying i guess)

    Thanks

    What about the maiming earrings? That could help, you'll only lose 3 DET, but you probably won't miss.

    your talking about turn 7 not turn 8, your dps is perhaps a little low but by no means concerning for turn 7.

    turn 7 boss is named Melucine, turn 8 is name The Avatar.

    When you parse, does your ACT count your auto attacks?

    Our mnk does about 270 ish on T7, but does 400+ on t8. it is just a fight with too much interruption. You can save more stacks by going to clear Voice as late as possible (1 sec on the debuff) and other things, but its not really a big deal. We hold DPS anyway before every phase shift anyway otherwise the Raynualt timing would be pretty harsh.
