    Am I the only person that keeps switching stances mid combat when big undodgeable aoes are coming? like Primal ultimates?

    Yes because half the monk population have no idea how to actually play the class.

    you could if you can sustain the tp of all 3 stances, which you sometimes can, but usually you can't. Considering 10% is nothing because most of the damage on that level is burst damage, not sustain damage. They will get healed up before the next wave.

    If there was a fight where you were getting sustain damage, yea earth is preferred.

    Considering half the job of a mnk is chasing... or nearly all of it..Wind is on a lot. You really need to be bouncing between adds/boss/ dodging.

    Doubly worse because you need flank flank and more flank...and you really need speed on a moving target to get that.

    otherwise, get a drg, who can throw, jump, and damage automatically.
