The Monk Temple

[DarkStar]

In pretty much every FF game I've played, Monk was my favorite class; Similarly, all the Monk-like characters were usually my favorite too, particularly Sabin (be awesome if a few more of his Blitzes made their way into FFXIV sometime in the future...). So, I'd say it's no real surprise that I picked Pugilist as my main class for my main character. :3

Either that or building up 3xGL straight away, either at the start of a fight or if it drops.

Simply what the title says. Lvl 40 Monk gear and where to find it.

In case you haven't noticed yet. Everything drops from places of that level and we don't have any specific gear just for us.

I have noticed, but my question is still valid. Gear for a Monk would be Disciple of War, so obviously, I am referring to that gear, and it's okay. I found the place without your condescending response. Thanks.

Hey everyone. I wasn't really digging my monk, but I just started playing it again after leveling BRD for 37 levels, and I forgot how much fun it was. So involved. Anyway, I'm curious what sort of stats we should be aiming for on our gear. Do we need to just stack ludicrous amounts of Skill Speed? Should we avoid certain pieces of armor?

For instance the Darklight Corselet of Striking gives us +13 Determination, but no Skill Speed, where as our AF Temple Cyclas gives us +16 Skill Speed. What's a good number for our Skill Speed to be at? Prior to buffs I have 404 Skill Speed, which brings me to a 2.07 GCD with 3 stacks of Greased Lightning. Just looking for some tips on final gear, jewelry too.

i came across this today and was wondering if this is a legit rotation to use, with DPS meters being not quite accurate i'm curious.

Also is the stat weights for this build STR>SPEED>CRIT>DET ??
