When to pop buffs (monk)

[Jeremias]

When you say "should be" are you implying that is the most optimal? If so, I don't see how that is the case when GL3, Twin Buff, and Dragon Debuff are not applied in perfect balance. Not trying to downplay your opener, but that does not seem like the best it could be.

wow....what kind of monk doesn't know that perfect balance only hinders dragonkick debuff. Allow me to educate you sir. This opener gives you 3 stacks of GL, twin buff, applies demolish twice, and touch of death once, both for full duration. Perfect balance will end by the time you get to dragon combo, and so dragon kick will be applied as you will be in stance from the prior demolish.

I hope you've learned something, and I suggest you try it on a practice dummy.

(please imagine me saying this in a very rude elitist tone of voice)
