Just realized that freezing the stacks will come in handy when the boss leaves briefly. I didn't think of that before and it's probably the only use it has.
So essentially stay in Fists of Fire if you're building GL still, or if Riddle of Fire is up, then switch to Fists of Wind for that 4th GL. Gods I'm excited
You basically go into Fists of Fire until you reach third GL, then just before you are about to do Snap Punch, Demolish, or Rockbreaker, switch over to Fists of Wind to instantly get your GL4. And/or Perfect Balance if that is up, following the same principle I said. But I'd always use Riddle of Fire on Fists of Wind just for those 4 stacks, even though the damage is technically the same as GL 3 on Fists of Fire. Just that GL 4 would obviously be faster, so you are dishing out damage quicker.
monk was the best it had ever been after tornado kick rotation became a thing. but now it's looking worse than it's ever been instead. i can't really see any reason to play monk over any other melee now, except maybe because your group really really needs mantra for some reason.
In SB, it was really, really strong tho. Just that it had some useless stuff in there (*cough* earth tackle). But regardless of that fact, I knew some that thought the same (even though SB Monk damage was insane) just for one reason: SB Riddle of Fire. That ability is one that caused many problems with the community. Regardless though, I also like how Shadowbringers Monk is shaping to be.
@DemiGreyPup yup internal release is gone, I just started the free trial for this game, they gave me internal release, then one maintenance later. Its gone.
It’s because potency wise, monk is already where they want them to be. were as Sam, who’s only utility was their damage, weren’t preforming that role. The Sam changes are To bring them in line with black mages in terms of the pure damage role. Wether or not they will work in that capacity is an issue for launch
GrimBonez negative. Sam already was in line with black Mage. The reason black Mage does more damage than Samurai is the fact that Black mages have to move around while casting to get their dps while samurai can maintain uptime throughout the entire fight
@@ThaAlumniMusicGroup you say that. but even at the end of sb, its pretty common for people to talk about sam being a low tier job because it just doesnt bring the damage to justify not bring a different melee. maybe u can say its because melee dps is more competitive than magic dps, but thats all the more reason sam needs more power to secure its spot
also id like to clarify. the reason the second madare has 1200 potentcy is because u cant use kaiten,. so they just baked it into the skill (i think its like 100 potency more, unless madare has been changed)
@@pendragonhero4220 Kein Problem, das mit den Farben ist nur optisch, damit man weisst in welcher stance man ist. Den vierten stack kriegt man nur in der wind stance und wenn man in einer anderen stance wechselt(bspweise fire stance) verliert man den vierten wieder. Ich vermute man startet den opener in der fire stance und wenn man drei stacks hat, wechslet man in der wind stance um den vierten stack zu kriegen, da der 10% damage buff nicht so stark ist, wie mit 4 stacks buff.
@@sudama689 kann irh3nd wo privat schrieben das war drüber quatschen können also bekommt wieder mehr dps bei der Stange und Speed vlt ist das auch hilfreich mit rof zsm weil ich geshen haben das diesmal darmit nicht stance geweselt wird
@@pendragonhero4220 Ja, rof kann jetzt in jeder stance verwendet werden und durch greased lighting 4 wird skillspeed und damage erhöht deswegen ist man in der rotation immer in der wind stance.
nah, that was stormblood, back when tornado kick rotation existed. job is completely braindead now. hopefully they'll do something like in stormblood and can salvage something out of this trackwreck but i don't see that happening.
@@yotyot23 you can look for all the tooltips out right now and make a pretty good estimate of how it's going to play, and it's looking real rough. not even damage wise, it'll probably be just fine, but playstyle wise it seems like it might even be worse than old ARR monk.
@@Cizal well this is all unconfirmed just yet but what if for example, instead of Riddle of Wind you do Six sided star tornado kick, then while your GCD is charging you use anatman regaining 2 greased lightning, it'd have a similar effect and feel to using riddle of wind. again I don't know if this would work but that's why I think waiting for launch and seeing what openers or rotations people come with before fully commiting to a judgement is the good call. i'm totally with you in the sense that i'm worried though beucase current monk is the most fun it's ever been in my opinion.

Riddle of Fire works with Fist of Wind, so I'd go with Fist of Wind for Riddle, too, so you don't lose as much skill speed.
@@lenlimbo i dont think it lowers sks anymore just straight dmg up

monk is a knock off PUG-A-LIST ⋌༼ •̀ ⌂ •́ ༽⋋
Pugalist (pu-ja-list)
Bad monks will be picked on, no exceptions. That theme is literally all the monk job quests BTW.
as tradition demands
I got ff14 about 2 weeks ago and I play monk so I cant wait
Looking forward to getting ff14 in two days for my cakeday. Thanks Larry for showing me this game and making great, consistent content.
I have a copy of Base+Heavensward+Stormblood through SQEX you can have
So sweet, happy bday dude :)
YOUR STACKS!!!!!!!!!
Thanks so much, I love your videos
My jaw literally dropped at Anatman, that's going to be so useful.
Right?
Plot twist, it's useless!
So hyped for monk \o/
Me tooo!
*Bullies Larry* >:3
As a monk main or former one...LARRY YOUR STACKS
THE POSITIONALS ARE IMPORTANT!
No more stack dropping
I loved mnk in HW but disliked it in SB this seems to be more in the direction i enjoy, excited to play it.

@@LookItIsHope yeah i know SB monk was strong never said it wasnt it just wasnt fun.
I'm cosplayin' as Liu Kang the chance this gear becomes dyeable.
Love your videos! Keep them coming!
Nice. Thanks for the video.
Ooo I’m so back to monk
Honestly, what’s the name of the music at the end?🙊 the outro Music
Shadowbringers Dungeon Boss music
Sad that tornado kick still consumes stacks
@DemiGreyPup Internal release was removed thats why they raised the chakra proc chance to 70%, still a nerf to their crit rate now tho
@DemiGreyPup yup internal release is gone, I just started the free trial for this game, they gave me internal release, then one maintenance later. Its gone.
those bootshine crits doe
I love that AF Gear UwU
The music tho
I'm too ready for monk ^^
Which one is the best dps ?
Eh depends lol I say it's more skill level of the player to be honest.
so SAM gets a move with potency of 1200 monk gets a move with potency of 120 lol i dont get it, but monk looks more fun now so that great cant wait
oh and dont forget the completely unnecessary six sided star. Thanks yoshi p! I really do not like this monk changes

hi larry, I just wondering whats ur second hotbar's set up? I cant really see whats front of 12345
good vid guys
I love monk class so glad it got a upgrade 😊
And NO MORE TP ISSUES? WATTTT
Bulli Larry, does not know how to monk
In Love monk ^^ aber kann einer sagen was mit Dragon kick Aufsicht hat
Es gibt den buff "Leaden Fist" und mit dem kann man den Schaden von "Bootshine"(Schlag auf Schlag) erhöhen.
@@sudama689 Danke kannste den Rest auch vlt bischen sagen was z.b mit 4 Stack auf sich hat und warum die Stack andere Farben bekommen

"Monk got some love, I think you're going to like it."
Except Six Sided Star, you're not going to like that one.
