Just going to "un-retire" this one time to address this silly post.
My Monk, Arkat, has Duality and I TRed him into a Fallen Aasimar and it's the best thing I've ever done in DDO.
My first damage numbers are between 600 and 700 and when I Jade Strike and whatnot those number reach between 700 and 800. Sometimes I even get over 7,000 point criticals on mobs under certain conditions...helpless usually.
They're not what Symbiont's numbers are because I don't choose to optimize my toon to the extent he has either via past lives or gear. I choose to do other things that make my life easier. One example is using Purity filigrees to get the four-piece set bonus. I hate taking negative levels which is why my Monk was either a WF or BF for so many years.
There are other reasons why I don't choose to follow Symbiont's build as well, apparently to my detriment, at least according to some min/maxers.
Anyway, Rubbinns, if I don't do 40K DPS with my Monk, it is mostly because I either value other things besides pure damage, I am too lazy to farm the shit out of Slave Lords, too impatient for Legendary Shroud groups to form, or I have ZERO interest in doing what SSG wants me to by staying on the TR hamster wheel like so many other "obedient" DDO players do.
Good luck on your future endeavors.
Strak, reduce my post count by one, if you will.
