    monk priority stats?

    Is it proper to prioritize on Crit>Skilspeed>dh>Det in todays monk 4.0?
    Is a high skillspeed able to time more demolish clipping and more gcd vs an average skill speed monk?

    You need (>) 1283 ss to refresh demo perfectly and then you should go for crit > dh. Personally i don't recommend doing an full/high SS build, but thats just me

    Yeah the 1283 SkS tier is only if you want to refresh Demolish in the most efficent way (you'll have a 2s GCD under GL3). This is not a mandatory thing, you can also try to approach this value.
    In a more global way, you can go :
    - SkS at taste (if you enjoy having a 2.3s GCD under GL3, you can. You can find easily on Internet the SkS tiers to check how much you need for the GCD you want ; 1283SkS = 2s GCD under GL3 ; 1199SkS = 2.01s GCD etc etc)
    - Then Crit (the max value you can have is 2318 with food with the actual 340 ilvl gears) - I personnally aim to get around 2200.
    - Then DH over Det

    Where are you getting this info? Just curious, there doesn't seem fine much solid info out for Monk, and this is the first time I heard that we should aim for this SKS threshold.

    Well, you can check this :
    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?pli=1#gid=0
    This a GCD calculator made by one of TheTheoryjerks if I remember well. You can see your GCD depending on your personnal/party buffs and your SkS.
    But well, I don't say you HAVE TO to hit this SkS tier, I'd recommand to get to the GCD you want/like and after this going for Crit (especially if you have a strong Crit raid comp --> DRG/SCH/BRD)

    Also, if you want some solid info about MNK (and basically for every other jobs), join this discord channel (The Balance) :
    https://discord.gg/CjQkEn3
    And then ask for the MNK role
