Optimal rotation for Monk ATM?

[Exiled_Tonberry]

Playing through savage, I'm seeing Monks using Brotherhood a lot sooner than the rotation I've been following for a while has me doing.

Is there an updated Monk rotation going around yet or something? I've been searching but haven't found anything different.

Well, how have you been opening? I never seem to bump into other Monks, so I've been going off of a YT video or two and my own assumptions. I've been doing;
FSx3
Demo+PB
SP+Diversion
SP(+Strength Pot, if that's your jam)
DK+IR
TS+RoF
Demo+FC+Brotherhood

And then refreshing as needed, of course.

So far, I had try this opening of FSx3 > (ST)Demo(PB) > SP(Diversion) > SP(pot optional) > DK > TwS > SP(RoF) >FC(BH) > BS(IR+StP) > TS(HF) > Demo(EF+ (ST optional)) then pop FC whenever it is completely filled to weave in so far. As far I know after the opening and going through the normal rotations keeping the debuff, buff and dot up, I just constantly weave in buffs and OGCDs in the normal rotations whenever they are up. I don't know if that the correct thing or if ppl conserve OGCDs to pop them in duration of RoF and IR but I assume it is a bit of dps loss if they were to conserve them.

I've assumed that the damage you lose out on them not being used under the effects of RoF/IR is gained back by using them more often, but don't quote me on that.
Anywho, I think Brotherhood is best used after/as perfect balance wears off. By that point you've got things like Trick Attack going off, and people have gotten off some of their buffs and the like (Slashing Res Down, Piercing Res Doen, etc), so they'll make the most of the time.

me opener tends to be

form shift x3 > demolish > perfect balance > snap punch > diversion > snap punch > riddle of fire > dragon kick > the forbidden chakra > twin snakes >brotherhood > snap punch > internal release > bootshine > howling fist > true strike > elixir field > demolish > steel punch

at the skill speed i have(1273) i can use RoF that soon whit not losing that fifth attack on pb.... but at the same time a poor ping will be unable to do this opener

Here's the one I use :

You can adjust some few actions depending on your preferencies (I personnaly use RoF before my infusion). Also, Remember that now (since 4.0), you can use TrueStrike as your 5th skill under PB (instead of SnapPunch)
