Inspired 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) Would anyone mind checking my log or logs and seeing if there is somewhere I can improve? I would greatly appreciate it. This is the first expansion I am maining a monk and besides our defensive cds being a lil lackluster in pvp, I am greatly enjoying it. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/F7payqg2dLmVYx4P/#type=damage-done&source=20&fight=21 Here is my armory though I may have tank gear equipped in some slots as I mostly run around as brew outside of raids. http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/area-52/Outb%C3%A0ck/simple Edited December 10, 2014 by Inspired Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dolzzy 14 Report post Posted December 10, 2014 Just from a quick look inspired i see quite a bit of things wrong. You had 28% of up time of Tiger Power which is a big problem you need find a addon/weak aura to track it you should have 98% or higher up time on it. Also notice you only Pop'd Serenity once in a 6 min fight, assuming you only used it pull that's a huge burst damage that's going to waste you can at least use it about 4 times. Make sure your actually using Fist of Fury ON CD, It's one of our big hittas now! I know a lot of monks in mop didn't even have it on their action bars but you have to learn to bake it in our priority of abilities. Everybody learns differently I learned a lot by watching streams on twitch. Specifically http://www.twitch.tv/patt1s0nfrom Ascendance. He hasn't streamed since mop, but ill be streaming tonight if you get a chance stop by ask question and just watch. Not claiming to be the best monk in the world but i'm sure you can learn a few things. Good luck bruh! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brewmonksta 157 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 Just from a quick look inspired i see quite a bit of things wrong. You had 28% of up time of Tiger Power The log you get pointed to it looks like he was dead for the other 72% of the fight. That being said a quick glance over the other fights you arent keeping 100% uptime and your chi/energy cycling is less than optimal. Ill have another look later tonight if i find some time :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inspired 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) I thought I linked the log for the the first boss. My bad. My computer crashed almost right away into the Boss after twins. I'd appreciate any help at all from the other fights in improving. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/F7payqg2dLmVYx4P/#type=damage-done&source=20&fight=8 Edited December 11, 2014 by Inspired Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dolzzy 14 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) That make sense didn't notice. Everything looks pretty good on your Butcher Kill. Edited December 11, 2014 by Dolzzy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brewmonksta 157 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 A few quick tips i can suggest are: Your opener, you can refine this to such a way that you open exactly the same way each fight. On your butcher kill it looked like this: Chi wave > Xuen > RSK > Jab > BoK > TP > Jab > BoK > Chi Brew > BoK > Jab > TeB(6 stack) > RSK > Jab > FoF An extra Chi brew will give you more stacks of TeB. Not to reinvent the wheel https://www.icy-veins.com/forums/topic/8194-how-do-you-optimally-open-up-as-a-windwalker/ TEB and Serenity I would expect that serenity would be best used at low energy with TeB active for some mean burst. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/F7payqg2dLmVYx4P/#type=auras&source=20&fight=8&pins=0%24Main%24%23909049%24auras-gained%240%240.0.0.Any%240.0.0.Any%24true%24125535114.0.0.Monk%24false%24152173^0%24Main%24%234210e6%24auras-gained%240%240.0.0.Any%240.0.0.Any%24true%24125535114.0.0.Monk%24false%24116740 I hope that lonk works for you. It shows that your TeB is falling off during your serenity spam. During your first serenity you have: 8 BoK 1 Jab - wasted 1 chi 1 RSK 7%ish uptime on TeB I would look at optimising your serenity burst to allow for TeB uptime, no wasting chi, and finish with a free FoF cast. Hope this opens some eyes for you :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inspired 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 So.. is the opener you posted here the best way to do it or is the opener that Dolzzy posted in the other thread the best way? Or are they both the same and I'm just missing something? Thanks again for all the help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brewmonksta 157 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 I posted what you did, dolzzy's post is how you should do it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inspired 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 You are right. Sorry, I misread it. Thanks again. I tend to panic on the opener and am still working on getting it right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brewmonksta 157 Report post Posted December 11, 2014 What i did is i went to a training dummy and just practiced my keybinds over and over and over. I even tend to use a FSK to get to the boss on the pull. eg Pot > Chi wave > FSK > RSK etc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
