/sigh

Since you specify nothing with regards to situation: level 1 RSE, bare fists, and a White Belt.

that response sure beats out "it depends on the situation" or read the entire ipunch thread!

well, the top DPS sets haven't changed much in a while, the iPunch OP is pretty up to date. The only consideration, really, is survivability, there are some iLvl sidegrades if you prefer to go that route.

1) Tinhaspa with acc;
2) This new body, seems amazing, dont know if there is one better (for acc):
http://www.ffxiah.com/item/27861/karmesin-vest

3) Your legs dont have acc
4) Qaaxo leggings with acc for feet.
5) Letalis will beat your current with double attack, or anchorete mantle will beat your cape with more acc (has 20, youre have 16)

This is awesome. Thank you for this. Question what are the best alternatives for when you have bad luck with herc aug?

?? Vague question
The link posted shows very limited sets using Herculean, so I’m not sure what luck you’re referring to. You can arguably skip a good bit of Herculean gear for most of monk.

It's pretty much only the feet. Ryuo+1 or Kend+1

AF hands have WSD 10 and while herc with WSD 10 is better (TA+2) it's extremely minor.

I think Eiryl answered it, but let me fix my sorry *** question lol.

VS imp up for feet you have herc. What's secondary best in that place incase of horrible luck getting a good aug on it.

RF what's the reasoning for hesy legs? Is it due high Str and Att from it? As well the Crit rate bonus it gives?

TK now with the herc gloves same question as VS. Also I thought it has been established by everyone that MA would be the way to go, was just confuse seeing mantle with WSD insted of DA aug. Also same with hesy head.

HF would be the same question similar to the above about a good alternative besides Herc.


SS I have those set but what about that escha byakko haidate, cant remember the name. It looks like a huge boost to DeX vs kenda 5 dex.

Sorry for the question. I dont do any test, just wanna understand the logic behind those gear choices.

Kendatsuba+1 is also a perfectly valid alternative on the feet slot, for Vsmite.

If you wanna play it cheap there's also Mummu+2 feet which are are decent enough, even more so if you're already using Mummu+2 hands (which, surprisingly enough, are a pretty competitive option for hands, considering it's completely free)


How did we end up talking about WS set when the topic was about TP gear btw? lol

Are we sure that a for tp cape, the DA aug beats stp now? Also It is probably preference but I am thinking counter+ on cape since there is so much -dt hybrid gear now we normally are not having issues in that department.

I use a separate counter cape for counter sets. As for tp capes, to some extent it may depend on weapon and gear setup but for the majority of situations DA should win. Also, it makes more sense for monk to get tp via multi-attacking for less tp/hit vs attacking less for more tp/hit because of their huge damage/delay ratio and access to a ton of excellent multi attack gear. Should also get you better tp overflow.

I see what you mean, would just make sense to me that most mnks are probably using full Kenda+1. That leaves you at 36TA 3QA in an avg set, greatly devaluing the effect of DA. Using Herc feet pushed the gap even more to TA side.

The sets posted above even give lead to using Telos over Brutal earring, a trade of 4 da for 4 stp, the same ratio would apply on back, so I am missing why you would not make that swap, or if acc isnt an issue why not use dedition earring. Obviously it is all gear dependant, but I am sure there is a use this "90%" of the time if you have access to it set.

Now for inv issues it does make sense for a dex/da cape because it doubles as a cape for Shijin and other dex based ws.

Anyone smarter than me could maybe look into this on a spreadsheet or something, I havent touched one in to long, mine is way outdated.

In an extremely MA-heavy set (TA=41 DA=35), the 10 DA should be adding 6 effective DA. This has a moderate upward effect on the distribution of number of hits per round. Switching to 10 store tp, there is also a moderate shift in the distribution of number of rounds to a given tp threshold. Neither is game-changing. It's a question of what style you're after, and a lot of that is going to come from what weapons and gear you have available. I err on side of hitting more on mnk in those situations.

Also, in a full kenda+1 set with stp ears and ammo and niqmaddu, the DA+10 comes out to DA+7, so it's not that bad of a reduction. In such a set, I think the white damage gains outweigh the slightly faster average tp gain. Personally, I don't use the sets posted here based on spreadsheets because I don't entirely trust the spreadsheets and prefer a less "flattened" metric.

Looking at the tp sets suggested in the community guide, I don't understand why the AF3 feet are so good? I have herc feet with ta +4 and 29 acc and 30attk.
Would the AF3 feet still be better than my herc feet? I have godhands for weapon.
