Even with support? I have GEO BRD and COR with me most everywhere I go or is that still a stretch?

Why so much focus on Asuran Fists for weapons other than Karambit though?
Multistep?

Just as a side point, for any up and coming MNKs out there who don't have Karambit/REMA yet, Emeici +1 (aug) looks pretty sweet for a full spread of useful stats for MNK:

177 dmg
+40-50acc
ta+3%
stp+5
pdt-4%
crit hit rate +10%

Oh no, like I said, it’s not that serious. But yes, Multistep; I’m just trying to get a somewhat nice number out of Asuran is all so I was curious.

If you Geo frailty with BOG, Dia II and Chaos/Honor then you are probably capped in most old 119 content, but what exactly you want to multistep in old content? Kei? I wouldnt use GEO on Kei personally.

That being said, I would probably use the same, not for PDL tho, but for store TP like you mentioned. Even that 50TP you can get on Asuran will probably transfer to more damage on Raging Fists+SC, than you could ever get on Asuran using different gear.

I would probably change Regal ring to Chirich tho. Even more store TP and closer to subtle blow cap.

The only problem is that scales to make it are worth probably like 60M now. Big investment for something that will be replaced pretty fast and you can't really get even part of the gils back.

Simonses, Llewelyn, tagging you two as well like I did with Mr. Thorny.
I've been gathering some data on the duration of Boost.
In theory it should be your current delay x 4 / 60, but I'm getting slightly different numbers.
Brackets values are what we would expect with the calculation method I just described, the rest are the values I'm actually getting.

Tested this as /BLM with no form of buffs whatsoever, completely naked or with 17% Slow.

I wonder: where does this 4x value for Boost duration come from?
I looked into the original data from Fwahm on BG but I couldn't find anything about the 4x Duration.
I think this number could be wrong, or there's a more complex formula at play here.

Some observations:

* If there is an error in the delay calculation formula, it's not an exclusive error to the H2H part, because it involves the Staff numbers too
* Numbers with 3.5x multiplier instead of 4.0x seem to be in line with what I'm getting without slow for all of the weapons I tested...
* ...except Relic Knuckles numbers. But that could mean there's a high cap above which adding more delay won't produce longer duration? /shrug

Ahh Chirich.. good call.

Also, why no GEO for Kei? It’s fantastic imo.
Indi-Haste to help spikes as well as Frailty. Unless you’re referring to Fullers because I run out of range anyway so bubble won’t bother me (I know MNK can eat fillers but I did it on SAM first so the reflex is now engrained)

Otherwise cool, I just Multistep everything that has enough HP to do it. “Insta-kill all the things” is my motto.

Yeah I'm referring to that. I have 300 ping in FFXI, but even with better ping I simply wouldn't risk it. It takes time too. You need to stop around threshold and try to time next SC right, instead of simply down him from 100% to 0%. With just COR + BRD buffs I kill Kei in like 6 minutes or something like that, assuming it benediction around 50%.

EDIT: I also don't use Ja0wait.

Yes, but never seen any monk actually use them.

You won't find anyone's TP set with mache earring. I dont know the math, but it does affect TP return because you're losing your delay.

Then again, I dont ever touch the bear claws.

Alright, quick question:
I just completed Godhands and have my lua setup to swap back and forth between Godhands and Verethragna based on if I have Impetus up or not. I also have a rule in place to prevent swapping if I have TP that I dont want wasted.

What would be a good number for said TP threshold?

Like if I only had 50 TP, pfft, no harm but losing 700 and only being one Melee round from WS? That's a problem.

I'm thinking 500+? right now I have it set for 700 but what would you guys think?

Edit: I use Mache Earring +1 for Godhands, I thought that was optimal for Delay Cap/DPS?

You'll take AM3 off from Verethragna when Impetus is down or up then? Honestly wondering why anyone would swap at all.

Normally I’d never touch Aftermath but H2H OTD effects still activate on ONLY the first hit? so losing Aftermath shouldn’t impact you very much at all.

Like this isn’t even new information, it was discussed in great detail several pages ago that having both is best if possible.

On top of it being more dps optimal there is also huge factor that it can be way more fun. Switching weapons, WSs and maybe also skillchains is just more interesting than limiting yourself to vsmite spam.

It is optimal and I use them too. Just remember guys that empy body have 6 martial arts, so if you fulltime Godhands its probably not optimal to keep Mache also for Impetus with Bhikku.

That shitty h2h am mechanic is the reason why WAR with Ukon is stronger white damage dps, while without am3 MNK is significantly ahead.

Code
function customize_melee_set(meleeSet)
    if player.tp > 700 then
        disable('main')
	else
        enable('main')
    end
    return meleeSet
end


Pretty crude really, but it's working pretty well. I place this in the back after sets. It's its own item and not tied to any other functions.

As for TP sets, I keep it simple. All things swap as normal but when Impetus is up, Vereth, Brutal/Cessance/Telos Earrings and Bhikku are swapped (Acc Stages, and honestly I hardly ever need anything more than normal Acc)

Or did you want the whole thing?

Also, disregard the STP mod on the Segomo, was about to needle it to DA.

This isn't the first time that idiot has championed the use of a function that isn't reliable. He's just a malcontent; look at his post history.
