Take a read to help you decide if Monk is for you. Something to keep in mind is to build for the present with the future in mind. Whatever you decide to play remember that whenever new ranks open up that you’ll have to view those choices on their own. It’s a very moot thing to argue or debate about when people bring up topics like how skills become out dated or out leveled. It’s a tragedy of most skills currently in ToS because of how most things are linear and lazily designed without coefficients or stat influences (very few skills have anything besides pure straight additives).
Instead to maximize damage potential damage type has to be brought into the equation (Striking, Slashing, Piercing etc). The other thing is if DPS is what you’re looking for you’ll most likely have to do your own homework and figure out the optimal Critical Rating to Str investment, because Crits are one of the few things that retain good scaling. Having a base 1.5x + Critical Attack Damage bonus.
