So based on the [dev 1024] I have come to an idea for a MNK stance that should help with guard skill. Since there is going to be job abilities that increase the activation rate of shielding and parrying how about one for increasing guarding rate. Also keep it in the mind of stances and make it like its brother counterstance.

-Guarding Stance (Lv. 95)
Increases activation of guarding but lowers evasion.

Make it a 5min recast with a 5min duration. Also make it so you get a 30%-50% activation rate of guard, BUT makes your evasion halved of not lower.

Not only will it make skilling up much much easier, but it will be a fun and dangerous little ability.
