I just got Raging Fists tonight...and O M G
It owns...completely. Best one I've had so far during xp PT is 462 damage + 231 Impaction skillchain (forced the DRK to use spinning scythe, hehe). Of course, this was with kabob, valor minuet 2, sword madrigal, focus, and berserk, as well as having 188 ATK unbuffed, but still...ownage, complete ownage. I fail to see how any other job could possibly outdamage a properly equipped monk with a good skillchain setup between 41 and 49. And, even at 49, the only one I can really see outdamaging monk with good gear is a DRG with good gear (lots of +acc). Pentathrust, like Raging Fists, is worthless if you don't land at least 4-5 hits.
Raging Fists is the WS that will make you want to go solo WS whenever possible. It's simply unreal. Vs. a skeleton-type mob (IT, of course), I could see me breaking 600 damage with a bard in the group. Keep at it, 41 is where monks start to shine, and even though DRGs get Pentathrust at 49, we have the option to get a very nice weapon at 48 (Patas +1 I think, +15/+86), as well as lifebelt, which means you're tooling around with the equivalent of a 65 damage 426 delay 2H weapon, which is far from shabby. At 251 skill, a monk using a 19/96 weapon is essentially using a 94 damage 416 delay weapon...which, barring any obscene NM drops, is pretty much the best there is.
Keep at it...monk is a very good job.
