Looking for a good MNK rotation for T8

[Shneibel]

this is the rotation I am surrently using from link, and my i lvl 91

Boot Shine - Behind
True Strike - Behind
Demolish - Behind

Touch of Death

Dragon Kick - Flank
Internal Release
Twin Snakes - Flank
Blood for Blood
Snap Punch - Flank

Boot Shine - Behind
True Strike - Behind
Snap Punch - Flank

Dragon Kick - Flank
Twin Snakes - Flank
Snap Punch - Flank

with the gear & rotation + food I am only barely pass the mark to beat t6 with super slug, and not enough to do T6 w/o super slug. I would like to ask if any MNK can share their rotation for T8 (I already ask ig and most ppl say if you can keep buff up and dots the dmg will be good and I make sure to do that with the combo but....not enough)

Fracture - Perfect Balance -Demolish - Snap Punch - Snap Punch - Blood for Blood - Dragon Kick - Internal Release - Twin Snakes <- Use x pot

Steel peak - Bootshine - Howling fist - True strike - demolish - touch of death, poison pot

DK - twin - snap, BS - true - snap. Refresh demolish and TOD. Use off gcds and dps cds.

The problem with being able to hand feed you a rotation is the fact that many guilds handle the encounter differently, I know some monks that have zero responsibility for the entire fight and still only pull meager numbers, where as on the other hand I know of others who take upwards of 2 different tower stacks, and also handle taking homing missile if the normal guy gets allaghan field, or even picking a mine up perform 100% better.

I personally grab a debuff from the 2nd and 4th mine towers, and pick up homing if the guy with field normally gets it, so sometimes you can't really stick to "the rotation" but for turn 8 I usually open as such;

Shoulder Tackle
Touch of Death
Perfect Balance
Demolish
Blood for Blood
Snap Punch
Internal Release
Snap Punch
Howling Fist / Steel Peak
Dragon Kick
Howling Fist / Steel Peak
Twin Snakes (PB Ends)
X-Potion (Some can argue that it can be used earlier, but this is just where I like to have it on personal preference, you still get full 15 seconds with B4B and Internal and you can re apply DoTs just before it ends also)

From this point on I use my CDs basically whenever they are up, excluding PB(save it for mistakes unforseen issues etc), obviously I don't pop a cd when I am about to run to a tower etc,

Bootshine
True Strike
Snap Punch

Bootshine
True Strike
Demolish
Fracture

At this point Dragon Kick and Twin Snakes wore off about 2 seconds ago (Only time in the fight this will happen), because I had room to fit in a double rotation due to PB(DK+TS coming last in PB's rotation). From this point onwards it becomes more of a priority system of keeping things up, as you will be switching targets from Dreadnought and running to tower (maybe) so you may let a dot or buff fall off for a few seconds, Generally speaking though in an ideal world, this is how I swing it;

Touch of Death
Dragon Kick
Twin Snakes
Snap Punch

Boot Shine
True Strike
Snap Punch

Dragon Kick
Twin Snakes
Demolish
Fracture

Bootshine
True Strike
Snap Punch

Really you just need to focus on keeping up Demolish, Fracture(If you have bard(s)), Touch of death, Dragonkick and Twin Snakes; Obviously though you don't need to be told this really as you are on turn 8 yourself. Just make sure to use Cooldowns smartly, keep near on 100% Uptime on the boss, and never ever miss a global (don't hesitate just do something with it at least!)

Obviously don't read this and come away thinking, ok so this is 100% how i will do it. This is just How I play, and I have probably still heaps I can improve on, and Keep in mind that Currently I have over 420 Skill speed, When I was first progressing on turn 8 I had zero gear, practically full ilvl 90 and the Allagan weapons and was only able to push out a measly 350/60 dps if I played perfectly.

Pick up some crafted i90 gear and you will see your DPS go up by 10's and 20's with each part.

Last week I finished turn 8 on 458 dps , practically hitting that number 20 seconds after PB opener and staying there for the entire duration. For turn 8 you can try going on a Training Dummy for 8-10 minutes and try and get a good rhythm going there, hell ask a bard friend to provide paeon aswell. Hope some of this helps and Good luck on getting turn 8 down.
