Monk Greased Lightning III time extension as equipment stat

no thanks, just make the duration longer or the boss mechanics different...
If you disagree, make a video of your fight with any of the primals let's see how you keep up your GL.

gl duration 15 sec. <<< make it happen

This is how broken mnk is right now. Its complicated enough to constantly watch your rotation and position yourself and to avoid AoE. Thats why alot of people think that mnk sucks or consider us a liability in end game boss fights.

And posting about 300 dps a second doesnt help either. A fight against a wooden dummy is not the same as end game content.

1. completely agree, it's okay if you can sit on the boss, but with mechanics and needing to move around and stuff it really should be extended.
2. Yeah twinsnakes buff needs like an 8 second extension. that way people can actually use true strike and go back and forth between twinsnakes and true strike just like demolish/snappunch
3. Haymaker right now is completely useless, you mind as well just borrow feint from LNC instead. Feint you get the same effect and you don't have the dodge requirement. the dodge requirement should be removed, or it should do something different from feint if they want that requirement.
4. Howling fist needs to be reworked completely.
5. One inch punch is fine. it's supposed to be used to rip a buff of an enemy, nothing more.
6. Fists of Earth is fine, fists of wind though can use some love. the speed bonus should be a bit faster imo, and it says it makes the gcd shorter in the tooltip but i don't think its working properly.
7. yeah, should be brought down to like 30 seconds. also the minimum range should be shorter, theres been dozens of time i couldn't use it cause i was 'too close' even though it was still a ways away.
8. arm of the destroyer is okay,its a fast aoe animation, use it to tag stuff in fates. i just wish there was a raptor form aoe. then we could have an aoe rotation of arm> x>rockbreaker. maybe rework howling fist to be the raptor form thing instead.

I would like to see the back attack changed to be any position and reworked the effects. The attacking from behind makes leveling a lot slower and gives the class/job fell more like a thief then a monk. Even the dueling they talk about in the story describe the class more like a frontal attacking class then a rear attacking class. Martial arts is revolved around keep you enemy in front of you then trying to surprise them from the rear.

First of Earth is fine, its just a flat -10% DMG which is great for unavoidable damage. I normally switch between Fist and Fire doing end game content. Wind needs a bit increased movement or something else added to it.

One Inch Punch is fairly bad, I have yet to find a important moment to use it besides removing the buff from the big guys in AK or just being silly farming stuff.

I remember using 1 Ilm Punch on Tonberry King's rancour stacks and going... what the hell, why won't you drop buff. WHY WON'T YOU LET ME MAKE YOU TRIVIAL.

So far, only use of 1 Ilm is on the big guys in AK and they die so fast its just pointless.
