Does it get easier to keep the Twin Snakes buff going at high levels when I'm able to get more Greased Lightning stacks as well as more skillspeed? In phase 4 it felt much easier to just skip True Strike altogether in favor of keeping Twin Snakes going.

Yes. When you're able to stack 3 GLs your skill speed will get really close to 2s with some skill speed on gear as well (nothing too fancy) and then you can alternate Twin Snakes with True Strike without ever dropping the Twin Snakes buff.

I can't wait to get back in game. PUG has been so much fun to play. Can't wait to get my hands on those lvl 50 block looking fist.

Is it possible to dye af gear

Correction of correction of THE correction; Monk is best until you start to chase a moving monster and try to dps it down while it's moving.

What grand company do you think I should join as a Pugilist/Monk? It seems Gridania's gear sets focus more on Crit with a set bonus whereas Limsa's focuses more on Accuracy. Which do you think is better? I like Limsa as a city a lot more, but if the gear is worthwhile, I want to make sure I join whichever GC will be most beneficial for me. What'd you guys do?

Odds are, you won't be wearing Grand Company gear very often unless you just feel like it (like I did during Phase 3).

In any case, I believe you should just join which ever Grand Company you like the theme of most. You seem to enjoy the ports and beaches of Limsa Lominsa more, so I'd say just go with that.

However, if you really do want to take gear into account, then I think Crit would benefit us more since we dish out attacks faster than other classes. Meaning that we'd have a higher rate/chance of landing crits.

Hey everyone! I'm enjoying the pug class and having a lot of fun with it. I'm wondering what your recommendations are for point allotment for this class?

Thank you in advance. ^_^

Dots are crap, but you will use them, because they are considered "Fine Play" and thus charges the Limit Break bar.

So Dots do not have a place in your rotation due how a mnk's major goal in their rotation is hit 3 grease. But for the sake of Team Play, Dot it whenever possible because omnislash will be much more worth it.
