Gimp Setup? Monk

[Bajaratt]

invo slot -1 is one argument , but doesnt change the fact that melee gloves (+1) are inferior to O.kote or bandomusha even.

Let me know when you actually notice the 4 attack difference. I'll wait.

4 subtle blow is ridiculous when you are one of the fastest melee in the game...

Are you serious? When you're a job that generates TP very quickly, that's all the more reason why subtle blow is useful.

Man, and here I am just enjoying the shit outta the 3% HP. I like HP way too much. :\

Guess I really -should- swap that line in my macros for Okotes... >.> /just being lazy

do you use a tiphia sting? (or did you before wotg items) merman earring? would you use Shura body +1 if it was available to you? (you might have one, idk) when you combine small increases it begins to add up... would you use a sniper+1 over nq? it is *only* 2 acc. after all.

Yes, when you COMBINE small increases it becomes noticeable, but when you're looking at a single small increase, it's not noticeable.

Ya, but in order to do that, you still need single small increases to combine. Stop being so dumb. Subtle blow +4 is what, 4% less tp? You let me know when you notice that. Sheesh.

What I wanted to emphazize is that its perfectly fine to me to use af2 gloves (I used to do it), but do not say its because they are are good as Kote, cause they aren't. B.kote is the best gloves for monk in the game, even with full usu, cause they are th e best ws gloves as well.

I'd definately use Bkotes over Af2....but not Okotes.

So you play MNK naked, wearing only hand armour?

Ya by all means, the AF isdnt a DUMB choice. But even among the new secondrate mnks, its the lesser choice. And yeah, i still use my B.kote for ws.

Do you bother to think before you post? You're comparing hand armors, obviously you're going to have gear on in other slots; but there's zero reason for the gear to change based on if you're using O. kote or Melee gloves. So the only difference between the two is the 4 attack, which is a very small boost.

I'm ignoring the insult, for now, because i've always been interested in your opinion on the jobs you have leveled as they seem to be well geared and you obviously have experience. I apologise if you were insulted by my post, i'm generally a very sarcastic person which some people don't seem to understand.

I think it's important to consider what gear you have in other slots when talking about gear because depending on what you use elsewhere can effect the end result when combined with the chosen piece.

I don't really see the point in continuing this discussion, as according to the quote above we agree, Okote are (marginally) better.
