Lv.99 MNK TP Set

Is that still the best assuming you have AM3 up?

I don't see the point in using nef collar over rancor unless you're really afraid of the dmg taken getting you killed.

Edit:
Nvm, I didnt notice the rancor body.

So is tantra earring better then ghillie +1?

I would assume it is with capped attack.

DPS spreadsheet states that tantra earring is better by .9 DPS with zerk and imp up, ghillie +1 wins by 2 DPS with it down

I would think 3 dbl atk and 3 atk will beat out the 3 crit rate boost. I am not absolutely sure, but if i am wrong, and 3 crit is better, than a light earring augmented with 1 crit hit rate will be better than a tantra earring if your attack is capped.

And thew bomblet is not needed for tp, if attack isnt capped use potestas, and if it is, use a tantra tathlum.

kick attacks do not affect Mythic AM, DA does. I do not have math on any glanzfaust sets, but the defaults used for vere/spharai may not be for mythic

Yeah, I made the set trying to limit the amount of double attack in the set and not have it affect the aftermath.

Okay, been leveling up MNK as my next job, and browsed through this thread pretty briskly so sorry if these are answered questions (19 pages is quite a bit).

I see Thaumas Hat and Ganesha's Mask in TP sets a lot. As I understand it the former wins when you're not attack capped. Where does a MNK generally cap its attack? I'm too used to playing NIN and THF which pretty much attack their cap...erm, nowhere. Nowhere they'd be used, anyway.

I'm going to be getting Tenryu Tekko +1 for my NIN soon. Since that seems to be popular in the more recent page does that mean I don't have to bother with Melee Gloves +2? Well, it'll be nice for a Chakra macro but that's not exactly my top priority right now. =P

I'm currently out of WS merit slots to get Shijin Spiral. I'll probably try to get Verethragna, but wondering what's my best option until then. Ascetic's Fury inside, Asuran Fists outside?

Fury inside, don't bother outside? Kinda, sadly :P
Fury is'nt a BAD weaponskill outside either, atleast vs high def mobs, as it got a huge atk boost, x2 if I remember correct.

I was actually wondering about that, too. I know MNKs hated Fury at 75, but with all the new crit gear and such, does Fury outdo Asuran even outside now?

Well, realistically, you'd be comparing it to SSpiral, since there's no reason to use Asuran outside of procs, but at 75, I'd use AFury on thf Mamools and things with high eva/defense

You missed his first post where he said he didn't have the merit slots for Shijin.

Without getting technical, generally you're going to cap your attack when you have atk food + berserk + impetus for anything low-man. These + Minuets will generally cap your attack against 18-man targets.

I don't think there is a situation where 22 atk(give or take 2?) and 11 acc beats 2% DA and 4% crit rate.

Still, you never know when MNK/DRK is coming back!!! (hp bonus on both ganesha's and gloves).

The dbl attack from Atheling mantle should still be used since the dbl/triple atk from the aftermath can only proc on one fist.

Is Portus Collar a better TP neck than Rancor for Monk?

MNK can not use portus collar

There ya go ^_^

Why does noone have Nomkahpa mitts/Thaumas head setup posted. Everything else is the same as the 100x other postings.

Page 17:

Also on the top of this page there is a posted set (although using glaunzfaust) that uses tenryu+1.

Oo was looking at the item set boxed not writing. Well been using that combo and it owns on non stupid eva high level mobs. great for fodder and adl av zergs

Wow. I herped before I derped it looks like.

As for the neo-salv gear, for tp,

- Usukane Somen +1 (head) - DEF:41 STR+9 AGI+9 Accuracy+10 Evasion+10 "Double Attack"+4% Haste+5% Set: Enhances Haste effect

This stands out as I had put it in the spreadsheet as it wins over Gash/melee+2 combo by 6 dps with Imp down. With imp up it beats thaumas/tantra by 2.

The only one that really wins is the thaumas/nomk by 1.

New headpiece?

I'll probably use that+ tenryu tekko+1 once I get it, if only because I won't need to remember to displayhead off everytime i'm on mnk.

Usukane Hizayoroi +1 (legs) - DEF:50 STR+7 DEX+7 Attack+20 Haste+6% Set: Enhances Haste effect

Omodaka Sune-Ate (feet) - DEF:26 STR+8 Attack+10 Evasion+5 "Double Attack"+3%

How about adding these two to Ganesha's/Usu+1 head, BB and Thaumas coat?

Feet probably wont be good. Shura feet +1 had 3da, 4ka, and 5 str and my math had those worse than tantra for most things. The legs might be good depending on dDex and how much you need attack, but also most likely worse than tantra.

Feet sucked in my spreadsheet. It's almost like thaumas (which lost) with just 8 more str for dps. Lost by 4 dps

So much for "OMG MY TENRYU SOMEN IS SO COOL!!!"

Its still cool, it just isn't good :3

Hey maybe that set bonus will allow us to wear a better belt! I'm gonna go look for one. Be back in the Spring.
