Mon Grind Spam

    Criticisms are welcome. Thought I'd post my 11o fight spam and see what opinions other Monks have.

    1 Master's Aura is always up
    2 First two Drunken Monkey anf Fist of Wu
    3 Intimidation, Fire Walker's Synergy, Curse of the 13 fingers, Crane stance if it's up.
    4. Two Finger Wasp and Zan Fi's Whenever they are up
    5. Hoshkar's Fang, Doomwalker's precision, Firestorm of Fists.

    /autoskill Flying Kick and /autoskill Eagle Strike (I prefer eagle strike for the endure return and firestorm of fists takes care of the attack debuff.)

    This is what I spam on every fight and I save my burns for named usually.

    I'm only 108 and haven't bought the RoS discs yet, but it looks like you have everything covered pretty well.

    #1 Yes, this
    #2 Hadn't thought of popping these at the same time, but might put them on the same key since the duration's are similar.
    #3 I tend to keep Crane Stance and Five Point Palm separate from my usual spam key and pop them together, along with a disc as a mini burn, on non-boss mobs anyway.
    #4 Same here, although I find sometimes this ends up with me using Two Finger Wasp Touch right before a mob dies. That's because it's on my spam key at the moment, and I'm looking to move it.
    #5 Some of these are on my spam key, I might be missing some though.

    Pretty sure Eye Gouge does not proc off the Torrent/Firestorm of Fists line.

    Can also throw in Vigorous Shuriken and Banestrike as extra spam.

    I've parsed and Banestike actually causes a decrease in total damage done.
    Vigorous Shurken I've added to the spam. Thanks.
    I'm going to review my logs and see if eye gouge is in the spam.

    Not sure if you are trying to use Hotkeys on multiple # keys or a multi-bind on 1 key, but there's no way using Banestrike should lower DPS.

    The only thing I can think of is you are using the hotkey route and it's breaking one of them. If you just set up a Multi-Bind and use 1 key to spam those abilities it should work fine.

    Personally, I put on 1 horbar Banestrike > Vig Shuriken > 2-finger Wasp > Synergy > Fang > Fists > Curse > Prescision > Drunken Monkey > Intimidation. I put every slot on that hotbar bound to the 1 key and just spam the hell out of it and everything should fire just fine.

    Some prefer to not multi-bind 2 finger since its a longer refresh, but I'm lazy with that thing.

    I've searched my log files from recent to the 31st of Dec. Even though i group with two, sometimes three other monks who use Tiger Claw... I have no "Eye Gouge" references in my log files. Is there another name for this?
  7. Thrillho Augur


    I agree. Adding a DPS ability should do nothing but increase your DPS (assuming of course you have the endurance to maintain it... looking at you, Ton Po).

    Multi-bound keys can break when a disc is running. Banestrike is one of the ones that misfires. It depends on how many abilities are bound to that key, and in what order they're placed in your mash bar. Chances are it's misfiring a second ability which is dropping overall DPS.

    Not sure what the point of having Fist of Wu is ? I’m under the impression double attack is maxed for all nowadays , so it’s a pointless skill . DMS I only use in very specific situations , like during heel . Zanfi is far superior and only has 30seconds downtime now with max RoS aa

    Other than that I have , banestrike, shirukin , synergy , firestorm fists , dicho , tfwt , curse , Fang , precision ..
  9. HeatherPurrs Augur

    My log files say it still fires and still adds Double Attacks. My with and without parses show about a 12% increase in Double Attack with it.
  10. heruthemonk Lorekeeper


    interesting statement , id like to test this myself , but i'm a bit stumped in the methodology - how you seperate and parse double attack rate ? Gamparse doesnt appear to show double or triple attacks

    AFAIK after level 90ish monks are at 100% double attack chance - meaning we always double attack - i dont see the relevance of Fist of Wu.

    That said im sure someone with more knowledge can enlighten me if i am wrong , but i fail to see how you can double attack more than 100%

    Or provide me the tools to check this myself



    Formula for double attack

    [skill + level] * 1.x / 500

    x = percent increases = aa + worn + spell + disc


    at 110 :

    280 + 110 * 1.45/ 500 = 113% chance to double attack ..

    21 = fero xiii
    24 = burst of power

    No need for any other double attack mod

    Slightly old text Firestorm of Fists is replacing torrent obviously , and Fang replacing phantom pummelling

    HeatherPurrs this is from the aa Technique of Master Wu which allows you to preform additional combat ability attacks(Flying Kick ect), not the buff of Fists of Wu that gives 6% double attack increase.
