Monk Issues GU 52

[BChizzle]

<p>Crane Twirl our ae crushing proc is still critting using spell crit not sure if this is intended or not but if anything it should use melee crit as it is a crushing based attack it also is effect by + base dmg increasers, it also was never moved out of our abilities to combat. Certainly I like the idea that this proc was not touched, but I think it was just missed and if it wasn''t can you make it melee?</p><p>Five Rings - In<span > Emperor's Athenaeum this CA was going off however the reuse for it wasn't restarting unless all the 6 hits for it landed resulting in the ability to spam it over and over again with no reuse timer.  This also seemed to happen with Rising Dragon.  It isn't zone related was just able to repeat this is Seb, it also is possible this is for every missed CA I will test further.</span></p><p>Effects of Procs Nerf - On the training wall I am seeing a drop of about 1k dps due to the procs hitting for way less, in groups it is about 1.5-2k less dps.  I wish I had a training dummy to test on, however, no test copy guilds on the Qeynos side allow access to their halls, I would suggest you guys make a guild hall for both Qeynos and Freeport put all the transportation stuff in it and the creature conjurer and dummy box and make it available to everyone to make testing easier.</p>

<p>I can confirm, for monks missed CA's are acting like resisted spells and the timer is not restarting.  This might be an issue for other classes to test.</p>

<p>I heard a zerk was having the same CA issues, but cannot confirm it myself.</p>

Crane Twirl should still crit, it's only item proc's that should not be critting anymore. That being said it should be adjusted to crit based on melee crit rate not spell crit rate. Please remember that profession / aa obtained proc's should still be critting, and bug any that are not.

<p>Bump, did Crane Twirl get fixed yet?</p><p>And why do Monks have to have 2 spells that are lacking a lot...</p><p>Lightning Palm / Dragonfire and its very hard to get spell crit for these two...</p>

[Cusashorn]

<p>On Live, both of those spells work off melee crit... at least for me.</p>

<p>i was just on test and crane twirl has been moved to the 'combat arts' section, but i think its still on spell crit. act registered it at 7% crit (which is close to my spell crit) while all other combat arts were 80+ crit. jolting strike is on spell crit too, shouldnt that be changed to melee as well?</p>
