New MNK evasive ability please. Like BRD/DRG evasion jumps.

The point is, why would you evade with something that takes longer to evade instead of just, you know, walking out normally, where you dont even need fast reflexes to begin with. You are basically asking for more flashiness.

MNK is fine w/o an evasive leap. If we get too much of the same things the other classes get, it'll make the classes feel too much similar and it'll become more boring to play alt classes. The only think I think we really need is an enmity dump. Ideally a brand new skill off the GCD that only has the one purpose of dropping enmity.

This is not a request for a skill, it's a request of "SE I want my monk to look cool when evading". Why an evading skill.. just walk out of stuff which actually takes skill instead of pushing a button and faceroll in the air. xD

I think MNK is fine. Unfortunately it's never enough for some of us. I always fail to understand the argument: "because this class has that, and that class has this"... That's why there are different classes/jobs, they have different abilities.

The funny point : a BRD in my FC was dodging plumes with RS. Bad luck, the plumes spawned just after he launched another skill :p

Flashiness should always be something to strive for!

Utility wise mnk is lacking ranged making a repel option detrimental do damage. If anything shoulder tackle should have a shorter disable range and duration for faster position recovery after dodging scaled with gl stacks, and maybe make it reset the gl timer like bane does to dots. I don't believe it gets the speed bonus being a ocd.

Elusive sucks in comparison you have to actually aim backwards to use as a gap closer without the help of a target to guide you. Between the 3 gap closers drg has this one has the worst utility.

As stated before because of the way they calculate your position during these your better off just stepping out of the way.

Screw an evasive move, I want an enmity dump.

fist of wind saved ur monk's ass from every damn aoe OP, wish my DRG have a 15% mov spd boost like my MNK!

;; I can't dodge AoEs, is all I'm reading. Stick to a ranged class >:D!
