Of course, this is just me griping about the one job I adore being mangled from my perspective.

Well, I like the changes. Won't main Monk, but I think I will play it more often without worrying about hurting my hands.

Where is Island Sanctuary?

Did it get cut or delayed again?

It was never going to be in 6.0 as far as I'm aware. It was always slated for 6.1

The game already appeals to the widest audience of any mmo ever. Homogenizing will just narrow that.
Positionals aren't really critical for most jobs except on the hardest content. They mostly give players a way of pushing themselves to excel for harder content while others can ignore them, or choose to practice them for their own self edification. Having jobs that have differing mechanics is how to appeal to a wider audience.

Positionals are why I will literally do everything this game has to offer before ever leveling a melee DPS job. Sorry to those that enjoy them.

They are not that important if you just want to level and have fun with the job. Staying behind the boss in most cases is just a good idea in general for everyone but the tank.

I agree I was never a fan of all the moving around but I did my best to follow. I did level my melee though and just did it on the night lol :D

They are not even critical on the hardest content. The number of clears I see in Savage content and Ultimates with mdps not caring about positionals makes such obviously clear.

Nuts nuts nuts. xD Oh well i can wait. I was truly under a rock with that one, i genuinely just assumed it was coming in 6.0 because i never saw/read any news stating otherwise. My bad.

This kind of hit me hard though; because i know Endwalker is going to be awesome, but for me personally...

Let's just say Endwalker is a very delicious, well baked cake, and it tastes great.

But Island Sanctuary is the frosting atop of that cake; thick, sweet, sugary frosting.

Sure it's not good for my health and it's probably going to kill me, but I still love frosting.

I mean Harvest Moon, I love Harvest Moon.

As far as I'm concerned, WHM is dead in EW for me. If healers are getting scraps, then WHM is getting the crumbs and I'm just done with it.

I thought I could deal with MNK but it looks like they're removing even more positionals from them as well so I'm just sad overall with these notes.
