I wasn't actually trolling honestly. Druids were so versatile back in the day it was so much fun to play.

I'll chime in as I play a monk. Unless you enjoy being Bruce Lee, don't play a monk. Their damage is pretty average compared to others. Being an awesome puller as a monk doesn't mean a lot since it seems like everyone can pull/mes/mem blur these which is a shame. SK's also get a better FD i've heard though I haven't looked into it to confirm it. Soloing, you don't have any fancy tools to gain AA fast except a riposte burn. No swarm kiting, quadding, HSing, Assassinate etc. Also monk raid weapons are getting nerfed for some odd reason. Anything with a delay 18 is getting changed. Not overly sure why since we are on the lower scale of DPS from all accounts. It possibly could be due to the monk buff that is in the works (supposedly). Onto the good stuff... I enjoy my monk. Maxed FD is great and Imitate Death is sexy as gently caress once you dump AA into it to make it a 2 minute cool down. It also hides you so hit and run free through the zone (not undead, carry pots). It also mem wipes on cast if you have aggro.. You have some fun tools, disc's and poo poo to play around with and you rarely die. We are talking about heavy red con mobs who one round you to die. Only cookie cutter groups and guilds aren't likely to want you but gently caress those pubbies anyway. Monks are fun aslong as you don't mind being low among the DPS classes. Also monkly business (the main class site) is poo poo and they rarely help out new people asking questions. Level to 60 and get a few AA's in the essential ones like run speed, rapid FD, ambidex etc. Like 100 maybe tops. Level to 70/71 (upgrade gear to next defiant level) and rape and pillage the Hole for insane. Riposte disc on the hour. Get power leveled to 80 because holy gently caress 70-80 is painful to grind regular levels in. Upgrade gear to T1 HoT gear sold on the Bazaar. The damage and HP/AC increase is a gently caress load. Go to Splitpaw/Infected paw (still at level 80) and rape and pillage. You'll be doing 40 AA an hour before lessons. Get everything you can buy except poo poo like pack rat, innate strength etc etc. Riposte disc on the hour. Now group with anyone and rape exp in HoT, UQ etc etc.

I'll expand a bit on the leveling as its not overly clear. 1-60 tank merc on red cons. 60-70 I think I tank merced it in the Hole (temple). Cant remember honestly. 70 with new gear, solo in the hole(temple) but pop a healer merc now and then to top you up HP wise. AA's like critical mend give you less down time. 70-80 get PLed in Mech or somewhere that someone can swarm kite etc. 80 Splitpaw solo. Pop merc for buffs/heal now and then. Buy haste pots always. AA's vital to riposte burning: Double riposte 3/3 Destructive Force Delay Death Zan Fi's whistle Return Kick Big Defensive AA's such as combat agility/stability etc. Start small and work up while you learn pathing and your limitations. Pull (lesson if its up before pull as it has a long cast time)> Pop Zan Fi > Pop Whirl Wind > Delay Death before WW fades > Destructive Force just before WW fades > Speed Disc once WW fades > Finish off anything left (which shouldn't be much if you did it right) > profit. A pull in paw with lesson has given me 30 AA before. Later levels you can lower the reuse time of DF so you riposte burn every 30mins I think. Use hand to hand. Your offhand may have a 1HB from time to time. Only use 2HB for riposte burning and always buy the stick with the biggest base damage. Delay means nothing. Buy weapon Augs from a vendor in Erudin. They aren't anything special but its better having something then nothing till you can get Augs with +base damage.

Is this all for Epic 1.0? If you are doing this to get epic 2.0, you don't need to (well you don't with monk 2.0). Monk one is just hail a dude and go kill two NPC's

Since we have a few high level monks, tell me about swarming without using whirlwind that some monks seem to do. Mend is at 2 mins (cant level it more yet) Leveling staffblock atm Got all the riposte AA's etc. I heard you just pop immpenetrable and some DPS abilities like Zan Fi and staffblock blocks a lot of damage while mobs die on ripostes. I know you cant do huge packs but good for 10 mobs at a time once stone stance is up. Also im level 85 so whats a good level for this? CA/CS is maxed for my level at rank 33. Also what disc's dont stack and whats a good combo of discs to use? Heard IF/speed is a good one. Is calanins supposed to put phantom app line on cool down? Seems werid that

Anyone in the know regarding monk weapon dmg/delay help me out choosing a weapon as i've forgotten whats what with all the changes over the years. 95/19 or 82/18 for main hand? Always thought 18 delay was the sweet spot but heard something about its been changed or removed or something. Monkly business isn't overly helpful. Is main hand dmg divided by delay and then pick the best ratio still?

Are monks still meh in DPS and other classes have similar tools for pulling? Re subbed the other day for shits and giggles. Wondering whether my 94 monk is still a bit ''grey and dull'' in terms of what it can offer a group.

Screw monks, stick to a caster or SK. I would probably give up by now on my 95 monk if it wasn't for his 6k AA and the dream at 100 he might actually be even close to other DPS classes.

Midnight City posted:If it's just going to be a cleric box then no, there are far better things to use as a box (shaman/bard). Cleric mercs aren't bad if you block off the Promise line and elixir lines. Say what? You block DoT heals and it forces the merc to just use direct heals? Is it actually better healing to do that?

What is the current state of monks? I think I'm level 94 or so and have a t5 healer merc and 5 or 6k AA. Moloed a lot in the valley till I stopped about 9 months ago. Any new poo poo I need to get ASAP or fancy quests etc? I'm guessing there's little point to buying the current expansion from all the comments saying that it blows.

Is there any prolonged double experience with the 16th birthday stuff? I'm guessing there is so might sub for it if it's a decent length of time i.e. a week.

Honestly, Paypal is the less complicated of any of the payments. Plus, if you decide to go abroad for business w/e, it will still work without having to gently caress around with a VPN to set up a sub or one off payment(s).

What's the chances of this being a 2 week wonder in terms of goon population and 4-6 weeks for pubbies? Might give it a whirl if there's potential for it being 4-6 months.
