You don't see MA II in your trait list, because it's an upgrade to the first trait. All traits work like that.

I think the roman numeral system was used the first year of FF XI and you could actually see each upgrade, but they changed it.

Can anyone give me an accurate speed increase in attacks with each Martial Arts trait?
Martial Arts

If you look up your job traits no matter what level your monk is it will only say "Martial Arts". This is true even if u have reached the levels where you get martial arts 2, 3 etc... This is the same for hp boost, no matter what level it will only come up as Max HP Boost

The martial arts bonus is a gradually increasing ability. Pretty much, instead of there being definite gaps in between each martial arts level there is a slow increase in attack speed as the MNK gets stronger.
#REDACTED, Posted: Feb 02 2004 at 6:39 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) It's because this guide is incorrect. Over half the things in the monk section are wrong =/. Here's the actual list.

i know this is an older post but ..... hahahahahahahahaha. Brady Games -official FFXI strategy guide has so much usless crap and is wrong half the time..

"P.S. Monk subjob is worthless =)"

you should really try or at less see them before saying there worthless. I for one think war/mnk is far better then any other sub.

mnk sub not only get vit and hp but counter attack, boost, focus, chakra and if a new lvl breaker comes out you can bet there be alot more people subing it for Chi Blast.

That book is outdated. It doesnt even mention kick attack. Or the new HP boosts.

The kick attack is definetly there when reaching 51. That doesnt appear in the book.

And HP boost. Well I haven't witnessed it, but if you keep track of how much hp you get per level. you can probably notice the HP boost.

As far as MA. I haven't a clue. I never notice any difference. But I do notice a difference between my lvl 1thf/mnk than my lvl 42mnk/war when attacking speed. In the future it might be even harder to tell if I attack faster.

i use Monk as a sub for my Thief and there are plenty of upsides to it. Boost stacks with Sneak Attack, and since i don't get hit as a Thief too often, i can stack up boosts before battle, use Sneak Attack and then score big damage on my first hit. that coupled with the HP boost, and the Counter ability make it a good subjob in my opinion, at least for a thief.
Me either

I noticed that too, i looked in my passive job traits and noticed Martial Arts there, not Martial 2. If someone could clear up that I get it later on in the game or something and the info here is wrong please let me know.
Here's why...

Probably because it would be pointless to have both on there when only one is ever in effect anyway.

Why is that when I have reached level 25 on my Monk, I dont see the change? All I see is Martial Arts only, or martial art II. Why?
I dont notice it
