Thread: Monk 3.0 CHAKRA UNLEASHED

Agreed, I don't think the recast change was ever even desired at all...I think all we needed was the damage to be counted for at the beginning of the cast. Not sure if SE was toying with the idea of us using it more often, but meh. The GL changes are interesting, and at the moment, I don't think are exactly game breakers, just a nice little padding.

The AST changes were more interesting imho.

Holy fucking shit, those Monk buffs. We didn't really "need" them, but it doesn't stop me from loving them. Also, gj making Tornado kick STILL nearly worthless, SE.

Are you:

-Timing your attacks for mechanics?(for example, getting a correctly positioned true strike for the first photon spaser in phase 1)
-Squeezing in extra DPS on Oppressor when dealing with adds? You have a lot more leeway than you think.
-Timing your Tornado Kick after the last Royal Fount before jumps?(I mean...it's SOMETHING..)
-Potting?

The small things go a long way.

All I wanted from a Monk buff was Forbidden Chakra not clipping GCD, and... it looks like we got that so i'm so happy.

That, and recharging Meditation isn't as painful. Despite my implied salt about TK, i'm happy. Now I just hope my static's SCH is willing to go back to AST.


EDIT: With our GL duration changed, does this also mean changes to our let's say...openers?

Well just read the 3.07 patch for themnk section
10/20/30 and duration at 14 sec. So nothing big. Still same problem. Stun lock on FC have been reduce. So this is getting the same work with jump on drg. TK is now at 40 sec recast, but still the same problem with its dmg not registered right away. So what you guys think?

I think so. With the lower casting on Med to 1.2 sec will this be viable to weave or still no?

Fracture perhaps?
Going to play around with things tomorrow.

Not viable to use unless you are physically unable to hit the boss for more than 1.2 Seconds. This is not a skill you can weave in between damage skills because it is on the GCD. This won't change until Meditation's cast time is like sub .7 or .8 seconds (w/o Skill speed and GL buff) or it is made an oGCD.
