Hello! I decided to give MNK a shot since you rarely see it endgame and was curious about the hate it gets. Well now I'm an i90 MNK and must say that I understand what makes them difficult: you NEED to be able to dodge a wrench if you are ever going to dodge a ball.
Hate aside though, I was wondering if anyone had any tips for successful monking that I haven't heard of already. I've been looking at macros and have been getting better at dodging but I also am curious about which cross-class skills I should rush for. I currently have invigorate and fracture and am working for mercy stroke.
I also would like some help with Turn 5 if at all possible, I have beaten Turns 1 through 4 and am functioning under the impression that having people who know what they are doing and how to work together is vital for success. I have watched videos of it several times and have personally gotten as far as the snakes but we didn't have a magic LB and died. I have been watching PF for almost a week and haven't seen any groups that would be willing to take on a learning monk... or any monk at all since MNK and DRG are excluded from PF requirements a lot >.>
My current raiding setup is:
Sphairai Zenith
Allagan Visor of Striking
Melee Cyclas
Allagan Gauntlets of Striking
Hero's Belt of Striking
Weathered Gloam Brias
Melee Boots
Allagan Choker of Striking
Hero's Earrings of Slaying
Hero's Bracelet of Slaying
Hero's Ring of Slaying
Allagan Ring of Striking
Stats can be found here http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/...r/7677797/
Really I'm wanting to do T5 for the Allagan Cuirass Of Striking to complete the set for RP purposes so even IF I get the top and not the weapon I would be fine and could try again at a later time for the weapon if need be.
Thank you in advance!

I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.
