Monk Positionals 6.0

Good Riddance to over reliance on positionals. Finally Monk will no longer be a movement mess that it is.

Finally MNK will be SMOOTH to play....FINALLY.

Ppl like you are called "movement-cripple" in MMORPG´s. Why do you even mess with movement-depended classes? Ahhhh right... because of some visuals and to cry about the whole class design. Maybe try... i don´t know... sidescrolling mobile games? No need to move there, some of them do even play automatically. You can just sit there and watch some animations while doing nothing all the time.

Do you mean classes like DNC, BRD or MCH? Those with all freedom in the world which lasts in the fact, that they never stack, are in range for heal or die as most to any mechanic out there, because they´re so busy staying in the corner or any arena?

I mean every class just stands there since they don't have as many positionals as monk did. now every job just stands there to attack minus melee dps with their at most 2 positionals now

There are now four other melee to play. I don't suppose you understand how SE balances jobs, do you?

I have no problems with DRG positionals....because they make sense....the rotation makes sense.....the flow makes sense....

Monk positionals made sense....up to 3.0....after that...they were a burden just to add complexity to the job....nothing more

DRG or SAM aren't complex. And they still have postionals...but they don't RELY on them to make the job FUN.

In all honesty though...I do feel for those that felt the job was fine and that they liked the postionals. I really do because you worked very hard to become the best at monk. I would be incredibly naive to believe that we didn't see this coming. Of course they didn't tell us until the VERY last moment. There's no turning back now....only forward.

I know, was just sarcasm... won´t be fun to wait 30s for 1 mechanic over and over again. RIP Monk.

Losing so much of what made Monk fun is just a kick in the balls. No serious Monk main ever complained about positionals and it is these players who you should listen to feedback from, not the ones who 'feel bad' about missing positionals despite the fact they never really tried.

Would you prefer to stand still? If so Monk was never the job for you.
