At level 10, which training should I choose??

Ginnsu · 01-07-2005, 12:01 AM

AE attack, new kick, Taunt, or haste + taunt?Still trying to figure monks out. Haste + taunt seems like the best selection. Sanity check?

Cora · 01-07-2005, 12:04 AM

I got AE taunt, it doesn't stack with single taunt but I can spam it 10s recast when I got 2 wizards in my group. Probably doesn't even taunt level 40 stuff haha.

Nt · 01-07-2005, 12:14 AM

I chose Haste + Taunt at level 28 because I think It might actually see the light of day, I can usually keep aggro through damage alone and it should help some.

Musashi- · 01-07-2005, 02:39 AM

So the AE taunt is on the same timer as the single taunt? Is it on the same timer as Shout?

Nt · 01-07-2005, 02:57 AM

Just a guess but it should be on the same timer as shout.

The haste onyl lasts for 6 seconds? How long is the recast?

Nt · 01-07-2005, 03:02 AM

It's less than 6 seconds. Costs 15 power. You can keep the haste up constantly but it's a hassle.

Musashi- · 01-07-2005, 03:35 AM

I took the AE taunt and its on a different timer from the other AE taunts.. which does make it an "extra" skill!!

I wonder if we cna create a macro to keep it up perm. like make a macro for that 1 command then just loop it? Anyone know thew command or how to find the command?

Karla · 01-07-2005, 05:30 AM

Also has anyone tried the kick and how good is it?

Mattim · 01-07-2005, 05:43 AM

The AE taunt is on the same timer as Taunt and Slap so when fighting encounters you can 'taunt' all enemies in the counter with Taunt every 8 seconds (not 10) and use Shout / Clap every 30~ seconds. This has made keeping >3 monster encounters MUCH easier for me to keep entertained. It's almost like a monk version of Hold The Line.

In EQ1 I was a macro addict. I did extensive research on macro's in EQ2 and unless they changed something with the patch, there is no way to loop the macro. If it was a long lasting haste without the hassle, it would probably be seen as unbalancing. I'm sticking with the AE taunt myself for those fun multi-mob encounters! :smileywink:

*edit* I'm not sure how well the new macro's work with the 3 lines they are supposed to have now (I'm stuck at work for a while). BUT, patch notes say that they will use each line in order. Soooo...you could do something like this:

1. /useability taunt-hast (whatever it's called)

2. /useability flying kick

3. /useability taunt-haste (whatever it's called.

this might do the trick so you have to use the button only half as often if it works like they say it should.

haste + single target taunt has been awesome for soloing

Larath · 01-08-2005, 12:40 AM

I went with the single taunt + haste and am happy with my choice so far.

Dr · 01-09-2005, 08:15 PM

is taunt the only good training skill for lvl 10?

Kwonryu_DragonFi · 01-09-2005, 08:49 PM

I chose the single taunt + haste.

It has a very fast refresh, not only can you keep the haste going, it is also good to use with HO-combos due to its speed! SMILEY

Phr · 01-09-2005, 11:23 PM

I took the AE taunt...and it rules. I never use taunt anymore, and only use Shout in emergencies....

Dr · 01-10-2005, 02:12 AM

i picked the flying kick, well rather my brother picked the flying kick without my permission, will this screw me on later selections i will get as i progress to the next training part?

Dr · 01-10-2005, 02:26 AM

any1 know?

Dr · 01-10-2005, 02:42 AM
