I've just finished a raid in APW where my absolutely highest hit were 10k damage.

Dont know if I'm getting old, but didnt harmonius monk have +x % in their abilities?

Anyway my hits are lower damage than my procs right now.. Something is not right..

Tried using +accuracy 2hd bladestaff and the martial staff from shadosoul. Never saw a difference in
dps.
dual wield hits for around 500  when using Archon Travix handwraps.

Hm, i raided tonight and my damage seems the same as ever.
Only possible thing i can think of is a bard song bug:
if you zone while being buffed by a bard song with the attribute increase components on, removing the song permanently decreases your attributes by the same amount until you relog.

What was your str/attack during this raid?
Did you have a bard in group?
Did you have a big variety of buffs?
Did you have classes in the raid with mit debuffs?

The APW mobs have a lot more mit than say..Temple of tehetamani crypt mobs. Which area of apw were you in?
Don't mean to sound patronising, just trying to see if there is anything you have overlooked.

Had the same setup as we normally has.

Raided Vicus (did around 5k top damage except for the epic 10k during his rallying)
Had same problem all the way through to the warehouse portal..

Buffs were bugged at times, where half the raid lost all but 10 buffs etc.
Tried with and without bard in group, did some difference with bardsong on, but nothing
near normal.

Procs where mosly higher damage than the actual attack.  uglystupid2

Went out hitting on some green 2-dot mobs after raid. Removed all buffs and then relogged
and still hits for half of normal.

The triple strike chain does around 2-3 k damage and with the "1 extra hit per strike" I get about 2k more damage..
The Exploding hearth chain does maximum 5k on last part of the chain..

Tried respeccing (in case my stats went bugged) with the same result..

No one else that has same problem?

Had same problem last week.

Closing and restarting the game fixed it.

Since no one else have the problem (Would be a riot if that would be the case) Im hoping
for this to be a one time bug.

Will try my wings tonight and if I am back to normal I will try pin pointing
whatever went wrong.

I personally couldnt reproduce it.  Sorry ;-(

Dps overall seems lower but near the level you were talking about.  I was talking about maybe 2-5% lower.

They did up the difficulty in many of the APW mobs.  Gm's already confirmed that, you'll see a reduction in dps, but i'd say your case is a little extreme.

Just an fyi, in the past, i've had battles where i seemed to never crit, or failed to counter as often as i'd like...  if you see this trend starting, turn off auto attack, and reengage.  I think there's a random factor determined at teh start of your auto attacks... it's always fixed things for me doing that.  Poof, more crits, more counters, more evermonkloving joy Smiley.   Also noticed with encounters that start with me countering before i auto, i tend to get more counters throughout the fight.  Combat seems to follow trends at times, use these increased likelyhoods to your advantage.  Happy Smackdown Cheesy
