Well popping my cherry with this post, sweet! But what the hell is the deal with the 7th effect on monk set gear? What is sony trying to say about monks when our new fabled set gear has increased defence and mitigation of our OFFENSIVE stance??? I havent seen any post on how the offensive compares to defensive stance with a full set, BUT I HIGHLEY doubt that it even comes near to the mitigation and defence of coiling serpent. I will be the first to tell you that I am in offensive stance for 95 percent of the mobs i kill with guildies, but when i am a designated tank X mob, I am always in defensive and ready to go. Now I have looked at threads with people saying shit like Oh I have to be in offensive stance or else i have trouble with aggro... well FUCK THAT. When I am designated a tank i always have a aggro transfer, and even if it is just one type, I tank in defensive and never loose aggro. When i play this game i play my character to its fullest. If Im tanking I am in FULLY defensive gear, and if I am dpsing i am in top end dps gear. So what do i think sony needs to do with the 7th piece effect?
Choice a) Applies focus :coling serpent: Increase mitigation by X , Increase defence parry by X, (insert nifty tank ability here)
Choice b) Applies focus :Quiescent blessing Increase attack speed, ranged, dps, (insert nifty dps ability here)
And not try and fucking merge the 2 stances together. Besides the 15 deflect all the focus effects for monks are just shit imho.. O and for the (insert nifty tank ability) Caster will deflect 5 percent of incoming attacks, and for the (insert nighty dps ability) Caster will double attack 5 % of attacks) please.. !!!!!!!!

Actually the EoF set gear is so shitty anyhow you are better with non set gear.

So full set raid gear so you can solo better?

Yah and this is why i think monk set gear needs to be upgraded. I wont say it is difficult to get , besides the rarety of monk set gear for our guild. And i agree with you miroh its an awesome set effect for soloing. But give us fucking raid quality gear from mobs we spend weeks-months to get. For fuck sakes, we have been killing tarniax for almost a year, and one damn Membranous spine sheath?! GAAAAAA

Want monks in every raid, make Tranquil Vision go raidwide.

Beyond that only some new great buff or more dps would make a difference.

I don't mean for the whole raid, just that you can hit the MT of OT with it if not in the group. You think overpowered?

Miroh

Not overpowered...just...something I don't want SoE to spend all their time trying to break...I mean make raid wide.

Would love to see Focal Serenity be changed so it gives a more beneficial stat because wis is just stupid when Bruisers get Str and Agi? I think anyways.

With EoF, SoE basically is trying to move us more into a scout position but without the dps...De-threat buff, Hate xfer etc etc etc. We're labeled as a fighter and we get shit like that? Gimmie some aa's for my stances, for my FD success chance. Give me something that defines a monk for fuck sake.

And another thing, why the fuck did they nerf all our abilities then put the nerfed parts in the aa trees? Give me my shit back and put some useful stuff in the aa's.

Edit: This thread is so derailed.
