Crit or Det for Mnk

[MythrilDuelmatrix]

Yeah, i saw that after words. Was hoping i could see some numbers for my self since i have no idea how to do the Math or how it works. Did you happen to check my link for mnk? It seems to me to be rounded out good but if i need to twek it a bit let me know.

Ariyala works for building sets only, but you'll need to manually calculate the secondary weights. Since 3.0 at least for Monk it's solver doesn't work well at all. As Whiskeybravo pointed out Valks hasn't been updated since 2013 and his damage formulas only worked correctly at the gearing level available at that time. These calculations did not work once you had higher item level gear so his formulas were incorrect in the end.

Monk stat weights by Dervy.

How recent are these stat weighs? If they are before 3.0, they don't include the buffs and nerf of the stats. If they are after, Dervy wouldn't be able to get accurate numbers at lvl 60 because we don't have gear of the same ilvl yet. It will be a month or 2 until people start getting multiple i210 pieces to test properly.

This was my thought as well Zcrash. Those stats are 3.0 and on though. I do not doubt Dervy and his math skills at all, the only thing i doubt is the proper testing when people have the gear. I am beyond great full for someone and others like Dervy that try their best to help out the community. I can not wait for more people to get higher item levels so we get a better round about number for these stats.

These stat weights are not accurate, and are to be taken with a grain of salt, they were modeled using dragoon stats and filled here and there with approximations for monk weights. With that said they're a good basis to go basing your choices off of for the time being. I dont think the weights will drastically change but Im sure there will be a bit of variance considering we generally have 20% more auto attacks more than dragoons do and an ability that has 95-100% crit rate that makes up 10% of our total damage, so det and crit weight values might be much different.

I'm sure we will know soon enough, I remember Dervy saying he would work on a monk model as soon as he found the time.

With 3.0, det does not have much of an effect on autos and crit buffs crit damage. 1% crit rate = 1% crit dmg, so crit still makes bootshine stronger.

If I plug his DRG formulas into my model, I get crit and determination to be about equal weight (.137). But the DPS contribution of auto-attacks vs. abilities is way off anyway. give monk formula plox
