Monk Weapon Question!

Tasslehofp99 · #1 08-13-2012, 07:27 AM

Im interested in this conversation. Currently on my monk who is lvl 58 with Epic and around 210-245 str depending on buffs/situation I use either h2h main/SoS offhand or AC main/SoS offhand. The highest DPS i've parsed is 84 with the AC/SOS, and with that combo i average around 60-65. With the h2h main/SoS offhand it averages around 55-60 dps, but I've been told it should be better DPS then the AC/SOS. Any imput on this?

h2h at level 58 is 14/28 hum and 14/29 iksar.. so ac in main hand would be better dps

Fists are 9/16 for epic monks for any race/level.

I didn't do any parse, but I prefer using AC/SoS rather than fist/SoS because the AC has a nice stun+DD effect.
Also, h2h caps at 60 (+5 skill each level) whereas 1hblunt is capped way before. So at 58, your ATK will be lower with fist as main hand than with AC, which might explain why you have a lower DPS.
Also, keep in mind that even at 60, 1hblunt skill is higher than h2h
