Thanks Jay! Love watching you PVP!
Professor Jay teaching the people! I have been clapped by some monks in PVP, I want to give it a try.
Monk was the first job I played a ton of in pvp, it’s still one of my absolute favourites playstyle wise. I’ve been wondering when you’d make a video on it, as the unofficial monk master haha. Nyooming around the arena to allies and low mp targets feels great, and the ability to oneshot anyone below a certain health threshold is quite valuable if you prioritize targets. The idea is similar to machinist’s lb, though with added risk factor for us and the benefit of team support in the action. In my experience it’s also one of the few jobs that can consistently survive being the one to engage first, along with samurai and tanks. Plus, we get one of the best makai gear sets.
Epic man! Thank you so much for putting this out!
Just a note to take in: The reason you aren't seeing the 24k on LB in the visual is because for enlightment passive to activate, the knockback is required. You can't knockback the training dummy haha so it will only show the buff in the actual match
I've been playing monk exclusively in ranked. One of the funniest things I do is LB someone before turbulence goes off and they don't have time to guard or if they're in an explosion aoe. It does sacrifice half your health if you get damaged too so you gotta make sure you are healthy beforehand and won't get jumped afterwards but it's so satisfying making the environment part of your combo.
Also something good no one talks about is Enlightenment into phantom rush for strong single target dmg. If LB isn't ready for a while, that does some good dps too. It will add 12k to phantom rush on that pushed back target for 22k instead of rising phoenix's 50% bonus into phantom rush for 15k
Had no idea I could thunderclap to Allies XD, I knew I was missing something but I couldnt figure it out x: lol
I tend to play like a Brawler, then flippin the switch to an Aggresser so much fun
Is there anyway I can put what part of my combo I'm uptoo ?so I don't need to look down
Any dash macros ?
Lmao duuuuude literally just tried pvp today and was looking for guides lol thankyouxxx
wait wait … WAIT!!!!!! you mean you aint supposed to TC, then unload your 7-step combo, then TC again because they running away now, then SSS, Enlightenment, then LB?????…..
You need strats????
Real talk: When I read the tool tips for PvP i was like… wtf is all this, PvP monk is an entirely diff beast. Then 6.1 CC drops and i'm like.. .oh damn, this s*** is real.
My struggle has been trying to figure out how to play PvP CC Monk and now I truly see that I cannot just unload. My weakness has been trying to be a frontliner but you do make sense…
A monk needs to survive…. dammit.. this gonna be hard.. but now this is a CHALLENGE!
Great guide!
Great guide. You covered all the essentials of this job. If anyone is wondering how accurate this video is, this is a third party endorsement.
great guide bro
Hey bro, great guide, thank you! love the way you laugh, the same way I laugh when I pull off the one shot combo!
I'm noticing alot of top tier crystal players are monk so its definitely good, I feel like pvp monk is a situation where the sum is greater than the parts that make it up
Should an unguarded limit break, with enlightenment do 36k? Since the tooltip says that the LB against a target without guard does a total of 24k, doesn't the enlightenment buff stack with it?
If you still are active you should do more content man. I literally was horrible at my PvP monk until this video. Explaining playstyle and rotations was very helpful. Even though patches have changed some things the core is the same. Do you have any thoughts on frontline monk tips
