Title: 95~99 MvPing as a Monk
Post by: Arkensark on February 12, 2009, 01:40:07 pm

What MvPs could I kill to level from 95~99 as a Monk?

Equips:
Kaho,
DL + DI,
Empty Garm Claw (+6),
IC Gear; enough to get 148 dex w/o Deviling,
Tirfing Guard (+7),
No decent armor - Roda Frog Coat is about the only thing I have that ads max SP.

=well asura  is really fast. so realistically you can do any MVP by just asura=>Fly wing=> Repeat.

u could get quad santa poring mace and kill shadow prop mvps.

any mvp is alright...but u might do weak damage without % cards. try the low hp ones first?(under 200k)

i think u can do atroce
get orc warrior for race reduction~cheap
fire armor for his magnum break~not that expensive
quad santa poring weapon~not that expensive

Another quick question.

Waghnak [4] vs. Mace [4]

The Mace has 7 more base atk but doesn't get the (minimum +15) damage bonus from Iron Fists.

On the other hand knuckles have size mods of:
Small 100% 
Medium 75% 
Large 50% 

And maces have:
Small 75% 
Medium 100% 
Large 100% 

Thinking about just that gives the mace the spotlight by far.

Was just wondering if I missed any factors that would sway it one way or the other.

Edit: Also rofl at the price of a +10 Waghnak [4] compared to a +10 Mace [4] I swear Waghnaks were never THAT extortionate (5.5m 0.o)

mace cant break. +10mace easier to obtain/cheaper
but now theres barrage[4] which is much better than waghnak. (can be overupped too ^^)

If I recall correctly, Iron Fist really didn't make a difference worth getting a Fist for with Asura.
There was a thread on it, but not here; I think the damage difference was less than 1k, maybe around there, especially since a good majority of the yummy MVPs are Medium or Large size anyway.
I might be thinking of the wrong thing, though, but I do remember looking it up in detail and finding myself going with mace after all.

if u have TTTT mace and can asura maya for 100k..it doesnt mean TTTT fist will asura at 50k.
the size modifier only effect weapon atk which mean 30 atk will be 15 atk...
as asura is not hugely calculate thru weapon atk..it's more on str, sp and % card

I suppose knuckle weapons are more suited for Combo Monks/Champs since they have less aspd delay than maces and the aforementioned Barrage Fist which increases the damage of all the Monks combo skills.

Now I've sorted that out for myself I'd better get started on this gear. =P

Thanks for all your help so far guys. I'm just concerned about my Asura being cancelled by an MvP's mob or getting raped by them before I can hit the MvP itself, as fast as the cast is with 148 dex it could still happen. What do you guys suggest about this?

Title: Re: 95~99 MvPing as a Monk

Phen accessory?
/heh
Then again, if the casting takes long enough and the mob is strong enough, it might mean pain and death unless you get away immediately after striking...
Probably takes away some of that Dex, too.
Usually to get around this I do some weird maneuvering so I get the MVP closer to me than its mob, but if it moves too fast or casts a lot of stuff while its mob runs for you, that would probably be difficult.

Annoying when the MvP and it's mob have the same walk speed.

B> Goblin Card x4
Orc Warrior Card
Pasana Card

IF you think ur cast time is an issue,
use 2dex food /ok
or a rocker armor+1dex food(only like..5k ea. grape juice with honey)
I used to do that with my wiz.

Post by: redhairweasel on February 13, 2009, 10:35:27 am

i use 135 dex + berz rosary + di+dl combo when i mvp my monk all the way to 99 with mvp
im sure 148 dex is way faster than mine

Ohhh yeah - stat food is a good idea. @,@
It wouldn't be too expensive or hard to get just a +2 item, either, so long as the MVP doesn't eat you a lot.

w/o Deviling as in, I'm using Stem Worm instead of Deviling.

Is it better to have more str than int or the other way around?

Title: Re: 95~99 MvPing as a Monk
Post by: SwiftStrike on February 13, 2009, 07:02:56 pm

ah i see.
theres a balance between the two but str has higher potential. (especially at high lvls)
