so I have some questions what really goes into the percentage when looking at equipment... I understand level obviously and possibly rarity but since i am not aware of an armour statistic then what affects the expertise?  I have seen with weapons or at least it would make sense that if I have a high skill in one weapon type handwraps that they should be easy for me to use.. conversly a bladstaff that i might have a low skill in should require mpore percentage because I am not as familiar with its use...  just curious.. I have a couple piece of equip that I have in my inv that are much higher level and I am going to watch what happens when I level to see what happesn....

anyone else had armour issues?  my chest piece nolonger shows up tho it is equiped..not a huge deal it is doing what it should...

this happened after this latest patch... hopefully next patch will catch it...

hey someone let me know what the name of that guy in khal is again... I am already dragon but i might want to try some of the other styles out there

all I have had to go on is what he little information winodw states to me which is that dexterity is the main damage mitigator...  this is extrodianarily handy to me becuase in the duo of myself and a shaman I tank.. and if I can evade or mitigate the damage that is what I want to do... now if I have this wrong I need to know..  Do the infomration windows tell the truth or am I worshiping a false stat...??

 Hey so I would love some advice on this DPS parcer.   I have it working np..  just curious if best to log a certain series of battles stop logging and read  that file to obtain more accurate numbers.... Btw the parcer I am using is the one posted on this site...  I am curious because the when I go back and look at the log files in the folder it shows quite a few files. Some do not read and others seem to be small periods of time...   It doesn't seem to log an entire nights worth of dps in one log.. which is fine...

I guess if you whoever you are, that might be using the parcer let me know what you do to get somewhat more accurate figures..

thanks  just want to watch the figures myself..

Thanks for the post can't wait to try it..

Just a repsonce to the faction aspect.. if you are looking at your full faction rating not your dynamic faction rating and it is less than -7999 you should nolonger be kos to that faction...  I started as a goblin monk and moved to darknarg because i knew the area better and I have now increased my faction all over thestra.. it really doesn't take that much... approx 2-3 hundred faction points and then their your friend, and your able to accept quests.  It is the price you pay to play an evil race..

maybe I am missing something but what is wrong with feign death?  it works for me for the most part..  but I would expect it to not work against higher level mobs.. and just mostly with current level mobs...

Alright this may help... I am a goblin Monk so I have been subject to quite a bit of faction problems...   first  /showfactions and see what your faction is to the people you are trying to converse with.. my full faction say with the city of Khal started out at -8100  my dynamic faction was 0...  it is only required to have a full faction rating of around -7999 to nolonger be considered Kos and be able to recieve quests...  I did this in Khal by killing the ratmen buy the hundreds...   I have had to do this in four area's so far because I wanted to play on Thestra and Qalia..   exploration in a region you need to do quests in is essential to see what provides faction and what does not... forest creatures do not provide faction for the most part... it is usually some sort of humanoid creature that will provide your faction....

good luck.. oh and if and when shadowhound mounts become available someone let me know.. the video had a dark elf riding one so you may be privy before others...

I would have to agree.. I am enjoying playing a monk.. but healers and partial healers as well as tanks/rangers are much more influential for groups...  a good drunken style monk should be able to move aggression around well, and can make amazing pullers for a group..  I am only 16th and just started the dragon style.. tho wish I might have gone drunken... but thats because it's unknown to me... not difficult to solo once you get mediation to replenish jin.. but buffs are essential to truly solo...  can use medium armour which is huge...  I also have a shammy irl friend that I play with and we are hard to beat..

So Hello.. and Where are the Shadowhound mounts?..... I have a currently 16th lvl monk goblin.. and I want a different mount than a horse... as a matter of fact I hate every moment I am on that stinking beast.. so if anyone finds the shadowhound mount merchant...please let me know where... I am on Flamehammer and I go by Madness.....  I know it will be in the game you can even utube the video clip...


thanks for the help ahead of time... If any of you monks are on flame hammer and want the group action... send a tell...

So I just hit 16th and went to train... Received my call to Khal for my advanced training... went and trained in Dragon.. completed the quests and then once I received my new stances and skills.. the two chains I had  thousand fists and the dragon style kick are both gone..  Just curious if this was suppose to happen...  I couldn't play much after this happened so could not poll online monks
