This however will depend on what they do to monk in 7.01. They indirectly mentioned looking at this interaction because it's likely an oversight, so we'll see. If BootDK dies then DK rotation dies with it, as it's not a gain anymore to use 4 DK's + SSStar before the boss disappears for a trio/dies.
I gotta admit, when 7.0 landed I played about 15 minutes of my level 90 monk… then set it aside and said “Let’s come back to this in a couple patches.”
@@dolan2783 Imagine having a better job that works fluidly and obviously instead of doing literally the same exact thing through some obscure bullshit due to buff/debuff timers.
@@user-vo5fd9cr7s Dragoon is super busy during its burst window. Which is funny because they got rid of some things in DT to make it less busy, but it's a little more busy than it used to be, if anything.
Just an FYI there isn't a guarantee that BootDK is going to survive into 7.01/7.05 as it's likely an oversight and they've already mentioned it indirectly. So enjoy it for a couple of days I guess lol.
How the hell did any tester or dev think that this rework would keep the same flow as before? Hell, why did they think it wasn't even worth mentioning that it'd be a rework?
I miss the days of hand cramps where Astrologians were certified sadists for looping Arrow on us as MNKs. But the Bootshining rotations always puts a smile onto my face.
Actually this is just the new Double Lunar opener right? Because once you're done with the second PB you'll go back to having Raptor form after DK so DKBoot won't work again. ...right?
That's never going to happen. They're slowly removing timers or time based effects from all jobs and moving to stacks and meter management. That's just the direction the game is going because that makes it easier for them to job balance around having bigger time consuming set pieces in fights. Edit: It also means they can afford to interrupt you with more mechanics. I dont want to go back to the times when some jobs were *less than desirable* in PF due to mechanics screwing up their rotation too much.
You know I've mained WAR since shb, the highest alt job I've had has been my 70 MNK and I was thinking with this xpac ide finally try a DPS and push MNK to max...guess I'm sticking to good ol reliable WAR 🙃
This is mostly a meme video, it's normal rotation feels really good to play currently. Dragon Kick has an issue where it's currently the most optimal thing to throw in but they're already aware of that and are changing it pretty soon.
I’m currently leveling monk from 90-100 and have no idea what the fuck I’m doing so I’m just going to use this rotation regardless if it’s optimal or not cause it’s funny af.
can somebody good at monk tell me if this is actually technically like... good dps or not? because i'm really a horrible mnk player and i need some easy mode to get this job to 100? like will i be letting my party down doing this i'm genuinely curious bc i understand none of the theory behind it
@@xL0stKIlah Like I said, just quit if you’re going to have such a negative mindset, nobody is stopping you. Personally I don’t main monk but the main reason I like it is for being able to flow between different combos, not so much for managing buffs and debuffs. I have faith they’ll still make the job fun despite getting rid of them.
@@NekkoBlue the got outright got rid of the ability to flow through combos. I see how someone as delusional as you is so content . Literally no good came from the changes. Cleary the devs are clueless
I don't play the game, can someone explain why he's dragging the abilities in to slots even though they're repeating abilities? Is there a reason to do it more than once?
I'mma be real and maybe it's cuz I'm a casual. But I really prefer how monk is now compared to then tbh lol. If someone can explain why so many ppl have a problem with it I'm all for it but I'm very much of the opinion that what we got now is fine. I bet when 8.0 comes, Monk will be changed again, people will complain all over and it'll just be a repetitious cycle lol.
They're patching the raw dragonkick in the very first balance patch. 7.0 feels like they finished the rework they started in Endwalker. I would rather they commit to a new setup than half-ass it like they did through all of EW. Dragonkick rotation is not back. Oporot rotation (Raw dragonkick after bootshine\Opo Leap) is temporary and not a huge deal. Yes, the class has a critical strike positive feedback loop and always has, so maximizing your auto-crits will always, always be a priority. Do we really prefer maintaining three separate timers over this? Dungeons are way less frustrating. Trials\Bosses are way more interesting since you get to make micro judgement calls constantly, and the only hard timer is ensuring your buffs don't drift by.. pressing them. Also massive boss cutscenes and jumps don't completely f**k us over anymore. This is better.

playing with balls has never been this exciting
listening to this on loop while coping that mnk will have any sauce left tomorrow DRAGON KICK BAYBEE I LOVE MOONKK WOOOO
SO what im hearing is that every time we kick... WE BALL
haha this is hilarious clintonius

Didn't know Monk has a healer rotation
I love Monk with the new animations its fucking badass.
Dragon Kick, the only rotation that matters.
I'm gonna be honest. I see nothing wrong here.
Welcome back Endwalker Monk
Is this actually work in real gameplay? Dungeon/Ex (no savage)? I am considering to play mnk then… (I can’t understand the real mnk )rotation
THAL'S BALLS ? NO OPPO BALLS BROTHER.
is this actually a viable rotation i really confused with monk just got it to 96 and never really understood what im supposed to be doing
The video is a meme but as of 7.0 it's also optimal
and as of 7.01 it's dead :-:
i really like this video
this is gold
hmm yes balls
I LOVE MONK
oh damn the monk got hit with the summoner treatment :D bye enjoyable hard to master class and welcome faceroll "i look cool" trash xD

it was a slight DPS increase in 7.0 but it got immediately patched as of today with Arcadion's release because it was not part of yoship's vision.

can i play this with 4ms ping or am i fuvked

He’s laying his opener out in order so you can see what moves to do in order without the hassle
to make it easier for the viewer to see his rotation ( sequence of skill buttons pressed).
To replace all the abilities and minor complexity of this job they stripped with the rework
does this actually work lol
