Subs for MNK

Keep in mind, baj, that someone truly intrepid and interested in using /DRG to its fullest will also get +6 attack from Wyvern Mantle in an otherwise non-Attack slot (until the +3 from jaguar mantle at fortysomething). +16 is a solid amount.
 
True, and that's why /DRG is even in the running for those levels. I'm just saying that berserk is going to be adding a much larger amount of attack, even if it's only active 60% of the time. Those capes are usually a bitch to find though.

One last question if anyone peeks in here.

What about Chi Blast? I remember when I did sky for a short while, MNKs would be firing off some crazy dmg on those. WHM sub, MND food, and MND gear... I remember seeing 1500+ Chi Blasts. Are those pretty much a Kirin only thing? Or are they just not done anymore for efficieny reasons? I always thought I would be able to whip up a mean MND gear set. <.<

i never had whm sub and i could do 1k + with chi blast. i always used was for berserk and it capped my att a boost or 2 faster so i would have time to get into the party for chi.

Attack doesn't affect it. It's an effect from the Boost buff itself. You could have 0 attack, but as long as you have the boosts, it'll do it's normal damage.

I have one, lol. But then again I'm a career DRG, love the job, and still have amusing thoughts of using my polearm merits and wyvern earring & wyvern mantle to level SAM/DRG to 75 using a polearm. LOL
 
well it sure seemed like it affected it.
 
I find the /drg concept from 40-50 to be intresting. That haste at that level is pretty alluring I must say.
 
/DRG at those levels get you 10 attack from the job trait and 6 from the mantle, plus 5% haste from the earring, plus you occasionally get to go hippity-hoppity. In a sense of pure average attack, yeah, I think /WAR and Berserk still beats it out, but the other stuff could very well make it comparable for a while. (The higher you and thus your base attack get, of course, the more useful a percentage attack boost is, compared to a flat rate one.)
 
When I lvled Mnk I did /drg after 30. Wyvern Mantle,Wyvern Earring, Fumas, O. Kote and then I stuck to low delay weapons(what were those 100% wind h2h that dropped from the tiger in Beuc? They are great.). Did pretty fine and kept DRG sub till 73 then had to sub nin. I was able to keep up and outdo /war monk dmg the whole time lvling even without double attack and berserk. Maybe they were just bad monks?

I did Sam/Drg to 75 as well.

Hmm.. I sub DRG on everything...

Can't sub DRG on DRG main :D
 
I've always preferrred /rng on a DD job from lv 20-29 for the accuracy bonus since changing to /war nets only a loss of 1 str.
 
The first 20-25 lvls are hell. I cant seem to get past the Dunes. Been soloing in the off time, but no one... and I mean no one is lvling right now. =/ I hate soloing.
 
Come play with my lvl 27 Drk/drg. I want to get to 37 and quit it ; ;
Then at 42 I will tank for you as....

NIN/DRG!!

I was seeking as 19-22 mnk in korrolka tunnel I was able to solo even match's to toughs as mnk/whm and gain 150-200 exp a worm. That area is a great place to solo while seeking for partys. Done Dragoon solo from 18-24 there also, nice to cut out quifm there. :)
 
I'm terrible at any kind of soloing for some reason, I never have luck. But thanks for the tip, I'll give it a shot.
