Machamp with Cross Chop
I have this "old" Machamp 95 IV Karate Chop/Cross Chop. Is Cross Chop better than Dynamic Punch? Shorter cooldown time and more damage?

i tmed a bullet punch/cross chop machamp
so i got counter/cross chop and well, i like its really fast spam of skills with serious good damage and i dont really see a difference between counter/dynamic punch
i have another with karate chop/cross shop an
d it feels almost the same but karate chop kinda deals less damage but gives energy so fast and cross chop is fast so is nice to keep
dont have any karate chop/dynamic punch, but shouldnt be very different than counter/dynamic punch perhaps less damage more energy gained but dp isnt as fast cast as cross shop
a big bunch of mix which in the end all of em do good
Why more damage? i guess you're talking about DPS, which is less important than DPE.
DP DPE's is better: 180 damage per 100 energy. Cross Chop hits 100 damage per 100 energy.
The cooldown is 1.5s and DP is 2.7s, worth the time for almost double damage. But CC is not THAT bad if you dodge every attack.
I have a feeling that moveset will be highly coveted when PvP comes out due to the shortest cooldown of STAB moves, I would hold off on doing anything to it until a while after both trading and PvP release.
If switching is a big component to PvP battles, KC's high energy yield and shorter cooldown will allow Machamp to quickly charge up and fire off a CC while sustaining minimal damage because of the greater probability to dodge moves while it's out
If you hold onto it, I'll trade you a SC gengar or Confusion exeggutor ;))
In all seriousness, I wouldn't touch it. As for raid bosses, yes, the dps is inferior to DP, but the 1.1s cooldown difference in charge moves allows Machamp to be more able to dodge a raid boss's attacks
