I am under the impression that there is a max damage reduction for non monk primes. How many +items can i use as a monk tert? Any idea?
No one has responded, but I’d like to bring the question back up.
With Monk as my secondary class, by roughly how much can I increase my damage reduction, or is it pretty much maxed out?
Also, has anyone managed to figure a progression table of base open hand damage for monks? The Imms have put some nice +hand dam eq out there, and I ’d like to see what it’s adding to.
Thanks for taking the time to read and consider this :D

You have +4 tp hit and +19 on damage.
I have about everythign there is to get for hand-damage
and am a monk prime, AND I run at 18/100 str
vs junky ac gear. . just like a thief prime
as far as damage reduction goes
afaik 1 point is 1% and you get a couple freebies
just for being a monk. Damage reduction isn’t quite
as gamebreaking as it used to be. I would say now it
is basically a “perk”, not something I’m going to spend
on until the very end, why bother when you can do so much
more with your eq. The real shit for tanks I think is fluidity.
That makes a difference, and you don’t have to sacrifice eq for it,
just a fucking class :)

1% eh? I was under the impression that damage reduction (when it works) would take a certain amount of damage off each attack. So, something hits you for 25 damage then DR is 5 so you’d take 20 damage.
We need to do some testing :)

It would have made more sense if a Monk prime would
get a little bit more natural dam reduce then a Wa/Mo.
But I was also under ur impression about the dam being
taken off. However at higher dam red eq, it might be
better. Getting hit for 200hp and having 5% compared
to just 5hp taken off :)
A monk/warrior has more innate damage reduction than a warrior/monk.

The bottom Guest was me actually. Also not from what I could tell and noticed.
A mo/wa has the same dam reduce as a wa/mo. The only difference is that
a Monk prime has the ability to wear more dam reduce eq then a Wa/mo.
So thats y it’s best to have monk in a quad cause u get the same dam reduce
if it was in third, second, or first. However I could be wrong, but to me to
would have made sense if Monk Prime gets like 20%, Second receives 15%
Third 10% and Forth 5%. Then again it would mess up all the wa/mo tanks
out there so I guess they wouldn’t really do that. :)
Yes, Leaf is incorrect.
A mo/wa has more innate DR than a wa/mo. And it continues to work its way down the classo.
As well, the DR caps get lower as monk is moved down in a players classo.
Enjoy,
