The Monk Temple

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't monk the worst possible class to LB?

IIRC GL3 is lost if you LB (2 or higher, sometimes even on 1), even if I save a coeurl form just for LB.

While monk might be the worst class to use LB3 most setups go with just 1 melee, if that happens to be a monk it's not like there's another choice, it's still better than a BLM LB when it comes to single target damage.
I usually safe it to finish the job though so I don't just lose my stacks...

Cast time for LB3 is 4.5 seconds and the animation itself is fairly lengthy - I'm not sure at what speed skill you need to be able to LB3 without dropping GL.
That said - the damage on melee limit break is definitely worth dropping GL3, try to make sure you have perfect balance up - it's very rare to be in a party with another DRG but you'll want him to use it in that case.

Yep. Hopefully you can coincide it with a phase change or with PB being up.
I think it's possible to keep GL3 if the timing is just right.
Still probably the worst class, but you'd only really compare to dragoons since single target is its own niche.

Kinda funny isn't it? Considering LB3 is Final Heaven and all...
