    Salvage MNK Guard progression

    Just because I am curious.


    What was your Guard level when you started out Salvage and what is it today? Do you really feel any difference now?

    75 -> 96 over about 8-9 months.

    No, it's about the same.

    Re: Salvage MNK Guard progression

    I didn't realize mobs in Salvage were high enough to give Guard skill. I've never gotten any skill from anything other than a chariot. I'll go check what I'm at.

    Edit: 198 Guarding.

    I capped my H2H on my Ninja in Salvage on 1F mobs. Meaning you should be able to cap any skill on them, including defensive skills.

    80s>104. It still sucks. Doubt you would see any real difference until hitting 200 or so.

    Re: Salvage MNK Guard progression

    I started at 90 now I'm at 120, but I am rarely main monk because the other 2 monks have Black belts and get cells before me when they come. One of them was 220 when we started and is now 250, so yea stuff still skill you up till 250;

    btw I tried to aply my "parry skill up with chigoe" method to guard and it works, but counter kills them so you gotta keep pulling new ones, which sucks.. but it does work!

    Re: Salvage MNK Guard progression

    ~175-196... used to get fairly frequent skill on lower tiered mobs, but haven't lately...

    Guard isn't really anything spectacular - but it does help a lot...

    I recently got a 0.4 skill up from the 6F Chariot in Mount Zhayolm.

    I keep counterstance up from Opacus to exit, so guard doesn't come around very often.

    Not that it has come around any other time in the last five years.

    Capped guard can be related to a ripped beast with washboard abs.

    Even on un-nerfed LBC? Getting double critical'd with counterstance up is basically death.
