Hand to Hand damage

Any hope on this? Really in terms on the the Weaponskill front. As it stands right now, hand to hand jobs are the weakest DDs in the game. Every weaponskill is very weak compared to every other weapon class.

Would also help if you allowed MNKs and PUPs to equip a grip of some sort, since even though you attack with both hands, hand to hand functions like a two handed job.

SE did raise the damage of Hand to hand about a few month back. Hand to hand weapon melee for a lot of damage per punch but weapon skill for a low dmg. So it's difficult to tell if MNK is strong or weak at this point.

There's nothing difficult about it lol. It's universally agreed that MNK is at it's lowest point ever. It is literally useless.

Not for it's higher hp. Not for it's counter-tank. Not for it's damage. Not for it's magic-damage mode. Not for it's tp inhibit chi-blast.

It's white damage is pretty decent if you fight something that you can counter. But that's about it.

Actually, the did NOT "raise the damage" of H2H, they raised the damage cap for it. It basically did nothing to help MNKs outside of GEO-backed groups since you are not going to be able to cap atk/def or fSTR ratios without one, and still falls behind everyone else in that situation. There is no logical basis to argue that MNK does not need help.
