We have a few things we add to the raid: MT group: We have a buff that allows the MT to use our avoidance skills to avoid  a percentage of the attacks that would normally hit him. Since brawler avoidance is the best in the game, this seems to be the best skill of this type atm. DPS Groups: Our group buff adds quite a bit of haste to the group. And we still do pretty decent DPS. Utility: We still have a stifle that works pretty well, although duration cut down a bit. We also have numerous stuns, visions blurs, knockdowns, knockbacks. <div></div>

I'd still like to see what kind of a job we can do as the MT. Supposedly we should be able to hold our own. Any have any experience with that? Is that all we really do in the MT group? give them our avoidance and a little dps? <div></div>

Actually, I posted this question on a few different class forums to see what each class has to offer in hopes to find the easiest way to get the MT to 100% avoidance after the revamp.</DIV>

You have to realize though, we don't buff their avoidance directly. Instead we grant them a 25% chance to use our avoidance if their's fails. <div></div>

<P>Having one monk drop transcendant vision on another monk makes for nice overall avoidance, especially if you have a bard and a druid in the group <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P> </P>

dragon advance gives us the best single target taunt in the game. I would guess there is probally some way smart people could us that in concert with FD to quickly gain, then drop agro when needed. <div></div>

From my experience, dragon advance is a true AOE taunt, meaning, your threat with all encounters currently engaged is increased. The spell description is quite vague though.Oh yeah, hard numbers on our grant avoidance line:transcendental vision grants the target a 39% chance at making another avoidance roll with the monk's avoidance, which should be between 65-70% on raids.<p>Message Edited by zaboron on <span class=date_text>09-18-2005</span> <span class=time_text>07:51 AM</span>

Having multiple monks(2-4) chain cast silent fist keeping the mob perma stifled in raids is a great help to things when taking down the big boys. <div></div>
