    Yeah pretty sure I'm dropping my 41 Dragoon to roll a Monk, the classes play pretty similar but I feeling the Monk a lot more. They bring utility to a group and have a nice combo system that doesn't prevent you from doing other things.

    The weird thing is I think Dragoon require more position movements than a Monk. While Monks need them to maximize their dmg, Dragoons need them to get their full buffs/debuffs up. Whoever designed melee did an amazing job, the jobs play similar but are fairly diferent.

    Fist also have their own GCD which will set great Monks a part from OK ones. Altering your Fists for each boss mechanic can be pretty insane.

    Fists of Earth for unavoidable damage parts

    Fists of Wind when you have to avoid stuff

    Fist of Fire for pure damage which will be up most of the time.

    One thing I hate is no ranged move.

    Pretty much same way I feel. Overall love monk but I thought monks would at least get chi blast or something.

    Indeed, Monks DID have Wave Fist in FFTactics, it should be normal to expect similar skill here.
