  • High Lvl Monks please help

    I am a lvl 42 mnk with a lvl15 thf for sub. i was wondering what the higher lvl monks found out to be a better sub job, either thf or sam. im a mnk that goes for dmg, not defence. i have armor that is old but has + str on it because id rather have that then higher def. I was reading on here that sneak attack does not have the same damage for mnk as it does for a thf, if this is true would it be better for a mnk to sub sam if there looking to deal damage???
    Also at lvl 60, sub 30, would thf be better with trick+sneak, or would a sam with mediate be better.
    please give me ur thoughts/experinces and remeber im not looking for defence so mnk/war is out of the question.

    MNKs don't sub /WAR for defense... you sub it for Berserk, Double Attack, Warcy, and the passive Attack up. /THF Sneak attack does not have the x4 modifier that sneak does as a main. Sneak attack will offer about a 20-30% increase on your weapon skill, in my experience. If you use raging fists and have double attack kick in even 2ce out of your 5 hits, you'll do more damage than with sneak attack engaged. Also, your damage over time with berserk and the passive attack up is significantly higher.

    why double attack is really useful:

    all in all, all 3 are effective subs, but the reason to sub war is to increase your damage, not to increase your defense. though the defense bonus is nice when you do take aggro... and you /will/ take aggro :/
