I'm new to 50 monk and I've been reading here to find out about rotation. I'm happy to know that I'm mostly on the right track, but I have 2 questions. Sorry to bombard you, I want to be the best monk I can be! I have Marauder and lancer leveled for all possible sub skills and I love Invigorate for aoeing in big fights and FATEs.
1. I hadn't considered using the Marauder DoT. Is it worth working into the rotation? I love using the other 2 dots on large mobs, is it worth throwing in a third?

if your buff goes off replace True Strike with Twin. i am also not sure about ToD. i use Frature now with demolish and my dps goes up

about how much DPS are you MNKs doing on primals or Boss, just and average fight with not too many disconnects

[kukurumei]

Mnks are very manual, there are pro mnks, there are journeyman mnks, and there are bad mnks.

I tend to always be in FoW in primal fights because, I don't want to be a burden to the pt and I don't have the timing down yet. Moving twice as fast as everyone else, I almost never loose GL out side of mechanics, have minimal damage for the healers, and pretty much be where I should be doing what I should be doing, without struggle.

I would take that 5% lost hit, for the sake of having a smooth run.

I say this again and again, winning is more important then being top e-pee. And people should be realizing that the fight only starts mattering at 50%. So the only time you have to get a dps check is at the end.

hmm well im doing like 230 dps on most encounters in AK and CM

[Akumara]

Are these parsers working, im skeptical that they are from before and how easily people are throwing out numbers. Has the lack of dot tracking been fixed?

[JokingCat]

i would not trust parse now until it reads dots well, some ppl say even monk gain other dots from other players like SMN. You can try your dps on dummys with dots but parse reads dot dmg in 1 seond it dont tick so..

[Almalexia]

Should really make a sticky in this forum about log parsers. This shit is getting out of hand.

Hi, I have a question regarding Demo:
I notice that most people refresh it ever other rotation. However, when i refresh it, Demo usually has around 3s left which mean at least 1 tick of DOt is wasted
Potency of Demo is 240 with full and 200 with 1 tick wasted and it is not benefited from 10% from DK. Thus, Snap punch is very close to Demo Potency (with 1 tick wasted) and cost half the TP.
Should I refresh Demo every third rotation or still stick with every other rotation in case bad thing happen?

Thank you

Fracture has an initial upfront dmg which makes up for its low DoT

Btw, can someone help me with this?
