Ryyn and I could pretty much take agro off of Kinky, as he was still trying to learn new abilities he just got at 18.  I was much squishier than the ranger though, and had to feign death several times when they couldn't get agro off me fast enough.

I'm surprised at how much DPS it says I was churning out.  I'm also not sure that I trust the calculations where it lists my party members with just a first name and with their whole name.  That could easily throw off the average swing times, which throw off their DPS calculations.

I am 50 Harmonious Monk, fighting in Tiger Stance.  I fought 3 mobs then logged it.  48 - 50 3 dots. 

Siclor is a 48 Disciple healing, we are duoing.

I think you have that upside down.  It would be DPS = Total Damage / Total Time

Anyway, here's the combined data in my second post.

Note the super high damage max hit in the original post.  I did 1073938261 - 1073741760 = 196501 for his total damage in that log and decreased the hit count by one for that log to remove that attack.

These combined numbers for Kinky seem a bit low for me, but we did take agro from him pretty easily.  The number for Ryyn look more like I would have expected given our level and class differences.

Group of Meiyen (17 Dragon Monk on Targonor) grouped with Velea (14 Disciple) in Veskal's Exchange to get Velea caught up on quests.  I was mostly in Storm Dragon Stance.  Note that many of these mobs are significantly lower level for me, so my DPS will be inflated due to the level difference.

I'd beg to differ.

If you are grouped with the other classes, that is easiest for comparison, as the data can be taken to the devs without any additional work on their end.

But even solo you can contribute information that will be helpful as the devs look at what we're capable of doing.  They will just have to look at what other classes are capable of doing against those same mobs at equivalent levels.  That's why I'm including notes about my level and the level and dots of the mobs I'm fighting.

To be honest, I don't usually fight beside rangers, rogues, or bards.  However, I certainly feel I can contribute data to the overall discussion, because what I'm providing is a number for my dps at my level, that can be looked at to see if that is how they expect I should be performing, or if I'm underperforming, or overperforming, and by how much.  I've been in Quinn's position in two other MMOG's, so I'm familiar with what types of data the devs need, and what sorts of information they have at their end to compare our data too.

I love numbers... they rarely lie. Just be aware of the following.

• Level of player A vs. Level of player B
• Stats of said players
• Gear of said players.

That last one is huge. Since it skewes the results. I personally try to use weapons that are 18% / 19% EE at all times to get me the most bang for my buck.

I took several long log files while I was grinding xp in the Panthenon of the Ancients..... I think you even see me get killed by the super snake lol (Talk about a bad pull!!! lol ) I would realliy like to see where we stand vs. Ranger and Rogues.

~QTM

What style are you?  (not that it shoudl matter, a heavy fighter should never out DPS a light fighter)  Just curious.

What is your monks name?  i play on your server because i know inglor 

I think your numbers are definately proof we are far behind where we should be.  It could be your weapons that dropped you below the DK though.  I know there are a ton of good heavy fighter 2handers out there well over 40 DPS and i have seen ONE monk weapon that high (the _____, ______ of the ages martial staff).
