IiPunch - Monk Guide

ouch ;x

that was a serious slam right there

wtf there's two??

The song choice for that video, Sylow, was perfect.

I love me some Nicki.

Re this set from the OP:
ItemSet 309865

Losers like me who will never have a tekko+1 can use this alternative at a loss of only ~0.5% DPS:
ItemSet 310308

It costs around 256mil on average to make a Tekko+1 on my server right now, so this set is probably more realistic for those who didn't get a Tekko before delve.

Ok I have not played the game as much for a while ( Like 2 hours MAYBE a week since the very beginning of SoA) and maybe my browser is acting up but what are Manibozho Gloves on your monk for? I click on them and all I see are ranger stats. That's good for monk?

I have not seen the other augment paths so I am a little confused.

Stats were updated on Monday to this:
DEF:63 HP+13 DEX+17 VIT+14 INT+1 MND+13 CHR+5 Ranged Attack+15 Evasion+12 "Mag. Def. Bonus"+1 Magic Evasion+26 Enmity-7 Enhances "Snapshot" effect Adds "Recycle" effect Haste+4%

And you can further augment them with STR+10 Att+15, Acc+10.

Okay. The page didn't show the updated stats, so I was a little confused. sorry about that.

Wouldn't Mani boots be ahead of usi+1 boots?

idk, i would say now its best to stack all the DA/TA/QA you can but i could be wrong

Think the usu feet come slightly ahead with the store TP (depending on the mob), and the DA+4% from the usu+1 head helps too.

Kinda sucks, I had nearly enough plans built up for either the head or feet, but I dunno if it's worth it anymore. Last I checked, the usu combo comes out ahead on fodder mobs (not delve) compared to hurkan cap/mani feet, which is situational. Dunno if it's worth getting still :\

With the new item level stuff, we may need to start looking beyond just the raw stats. There's level correction to consider as well.

As of right now, and this is absolutely subject to change within the next month or so, Acc Builds are probably not needed for anything.

This moment, I am using:

ItemSet 308010

...and in terms of upgrades, I'd really only like to switch in Uk'uxkaj Cap, Windbuffet and Oatixur once I obtain them.

Using Usukane Somen +1 not only lowers your iLevel (which may affect damage calculations relative to mob level), but also makes Windbuffet less of an option.

As far as I am aware, there is no level correction in Seekers of Adoulin zones.

You are the one claiming you can do a proper boost macro with wdw or spellcast and I'm still waiting.


It's ok to be racist with everypost you spit, doesn't change the fact that motenten didn't test what you claim to be right. I could care less if spellcast doesn't allow to do anything else for once second.


1) I only R15 one gear, the one that doesn't suck
2) You are mixing me with the gimp like you spamming tojil (assumption) explaining us that farming plasm makes sense (popbably to R15 more trash ?).
3) umbral marrow = 4 airlixir+2 (things to meditate)

All of this is in my "quitting thread". I adviced people to quit and come back in september;

4) So much hate because me and mdk were the best until delve ? You are just the 100th ppl to post hate post because you saw me glow on the internet

Test:

Spellcast active, but extremely limited in what it will respond to. This is the entirety of the active code:


The use of the /raw directive was to be sure that Spellcast did not attempt to process that command.

I can run the test using the command "/ma trigger44 0.1" and cause the two commands to be submitted with a delay of 0.1 seconds between them. Likewise for various other delays.

I will note whether or not Chakra fired at each delay value.


If I test inside the mog house, I get 2 "You cannot use that command here." messages, indicating that the second command is indeed being sent, even when the delays are low (all the way down to 0.1).

Note that for delays of 0.1 to 1.0, if Chakra did not fire, and Chakra's recast timer was still counting down, I didn't get the little recast timer notice either. If the delay was high enough that Chakra could have fired, I'd get the recast timer. I was able to get reliable recast notices at a delay as low as 1.02 seconds (tested in increments of 0.01, counting down from 1.1). 1.01 seconds was slightly unreliable, though better than 1.0 seconds.

Conclusion: There is a 1 second period after a JA use where no other JA (or, presumably, weaponskill, though I did not explicitly test that) can be used, and in fact that game won't respond to the attempted command at all. At a 1.00-1.02 second delay after the first command (dependent on lag, etc), the game will resume accepting additional JA usage attempts.

A.) French is not a race and b.) I'm ethnically French so I'm allowed to be ashamed of the dishonor you bring unto my proud people.

And it's not spellcast that prevents actions for one second, it's the game architecture, as shown above.

And no, you weren't the best before Delve. You were as much ***then as you are now.

I'm sorry but, that afterglow, while it may have helped you feel as if you had patched up whatever necrotic hole you have eating away at your sense of self-worth causing you to act like a total fool on the internet, did nothing else but that.

Big words.

If someone could actually send a "ctrl 1" then a "ctrl 2" with like 0.5s interval that would actually answer the question, ctrl1 being boost and ctrl2 being a ws. As of now nothing is proven.

So basically you spit hate and racist comment towards me just because, according to you, "I could not play with more than 2 ppl?". I think you are just an idiot.

I wonder how these are obtained (Skirmish II?):

Otronif Gloves
DEF:74 HP+22 STR+8 DEX+27 VIT+22 AGI+5 INT+8 MND+22 CHR+13
Accuracy+8 Evasion+15 Magic Evasion+21 "Store TP"+7 "Magic Def. Bonus"+2
Haste+4%

Might be a better choice compared to Mani gloves, due to the STP.

Sorry, your victim card appears to have expired.

Will also be augmentable!(who knows with what stats)

Can we talk DT sets for a second?

Some of the Arhat's set, specifically the head should be beaten by Uk'uxkaj Cap or Whirlpool mask now due to MDB and Magic Evasion. Yes?

No doubt Manibozho Gloves are now the best hands to use, too.

magic evasion has to be stacked to work, so it doesn't make sense to compare piece A to B.

A few pages back, Motenten did an analysis of various -PDT pieces and whether or not they stack up against the new pieces with their high DEF values. I believe Arhat's Jinpachi +1 can generally be replaced with Uk'uxkaj or Whirpool now based on the DEF alone. The MDB/Magic Evasion is a bonus.

Where'd you get that picture of pchan?

My big question is this... SE while you loving on the big numbers of stats boost and evasion/accuracy so much to pummel previous gear into the ground... Where the *** is all my xhit gear? All other gear still rapes SoA gear in xhit... Why?

Anybody got an updated impetus up set?

There is 4 impetus sets in this guide, was updated a few days ago.

No one's saying you're an idiot because you're French. You're an idiot because you're an idiot. Also, you are French.

It's like a 6'7" thief being upset someone called him tall, but is fine with being called a thief.
