Thread: Monk 3.0 CHAKRA UNLEASHED

i'm referring to two things.

1) you dont have to literally wait for demolish to be in que to use fracture, if you know ahead of time that it will be a rotation where demolish will be clipped. say your'e not in position for a skill but KNOW you will be using fracture in that rotation then you can go ahead and use it instead of reducing the potency of the positional skill.

2) flat out replacing tod because you know it wont run its course. ToD needs to run 27 seconds to do more damage than fracture, which is much longer than the duration of fracture.

Well 1 has nothing to do with timers lol and two should be common sense to most monks but good that you pointed it out.

To add to what others are saying, Sunny also helps with weights and formulas. Most all of our current information has been from either Dervy or Sunny. Dervy sadly has been banned from the official forums, but you can find Sunny most typically over in the Dragoon thread.

Pretty much, thats why it should only be used for demo timers.

Because the person who came up with this particular statement of the formula (me) decided that this way involves the fewest mysteries.

At levels 1-50, the 858 term matches your base crit/speed/accuracy/parry value (at level 50, it is actually 341). At levels 51-60, the displayed base value is (AFAICT) only relevant for food buffs; the actual values are not directly discernible from playing the game normally.

Code:

Level   Base stat   Formula base stat
50      341         341
51      342         393
52      344         444
53      345         496
54      346         548
55      347         600
56      349         651
57      350         703
58      351         755
59      352         806
60      354         858

I know for a fact that skill speed has the same scale factor but it's proven more difficult to get a formula this clean out of it. Point by point testing is not my bag, baby!

what you think about this BiS?

Not sure about how good it is, but its not full 210. You're using a 190 Ring over a 210 Ring FYI.

I think you will not be able to use 2 gordian rings though CMIIW

correct, you can't use 2 Gordian rings, they are unique.
