Thread: Monk 3.0 CHAKRA UNLEASHED

AAs are like... 26ish% (I don't know about theoretical performance there dummy; I'm just basing that off my static monk's Alex performance). The EV is on the magnitude of about 5~6 DPS.

So yes, you are not going to notice the difference. Regardless, it is an extra DoT, it has more total potency than your average rotational GCD, and it makes more out of your Demolish ticks if you know what you're doing.

Had a feeling this was the case... never really seen any difference between using it or not using it.

Even if your DPS was a constant number, it would be a incredibly small amount, but seeing as your DPS is going to vary depending on crits, mechanics, personal performance etc etc, for every run you make, that 5-6 DPS means nothing...

I'll keep using Fracture if TP isn't an issue, but it does drain your TP more than needed, and if you have to sacrifice your chakra stacks on Purification instead of Forbidden Chakra, then you're not gaining anything.

Just started savage but was curious what my numbers should be Faust and Opressor wise at I192 using the most recent food that gives skill speed crit and vitality can't remember the name of it atm.

Dummy dps for Faust (No numbers as I don't pay attention to this each week)
900+ A1S
1400+ A2S
1000+ A3S

These are generally numbers you can achieve and should be pulling in your team. These are the lower bands as well and are what's required of you to meet enrage.

Over 9000!!!!!

Here is Havoc's DPS charts if you have a question on where your DPS falls. I'm not sure if this is updated weekly or what but I'm pretty sure they just look through the forums and pick numbers from peoples clear for the most part.

I know there is another DPS char out there but I'm not sure where it is. So if you around the DPS that is mentioned in this Google Docs for the monks then you are good on DPS.

This one seems to be far more updated, but just a heads up to people who wish to compare to some of these players and who fall short, these players are the creme de la creme so don't be discouraged if you aren't meeting the top rows of numbers. A lot of these players got these numbers on speed kills (4Mins seems to be the record for A1?) Which means they have less down time, they optimize buffs throughout the party etc..

Something to strive for I suppose, pretty sure I'm not reaching 1.3K dps in A1S anytime soon.

Lol sometimes i even wonder if its worth updating the guide. Still see people asking for things already in OP.

Your personal DPS doesn't mean a whole lot in A2 unless you're the SMN. It's not a serious DPS check unless you're speedrunning.
