Monk- general discussion and feedback

[Jibs]

Monks need an AOE DoT or better AoEs or lower cooldowns on existing AOEs...just imo

[ArmorKing]

I just want Perfect Balance(PB) buffed:

• CD reduced(from 3 to 2 mins)
• Puts you in all stances until PB expires
• Removes directional requirement for bonus damage

This would mean that all attacks would have their special effects too: dragon kick would apply debuff, twin snakes would buff dmg, boot shine would auto crit, AoD would silence, etc.

This would give us great utility on the fly for those "oh sh--!" situations both in PVE and PVP.

PB > AoD for quick silence .
PB > DK for instant debuff and a great start to building GL3 in 1 rotation.

And yeah, I want chi blast, FFS!

[Draucant]

Yeah, I really wish they gave MNKs a ranged attack as well. We are the only ones without a ranged attack, Chi Blast would be awesome.

[Empressia]

just need around 5 second increase to GL's debuff duration, at least i can stack 3 dots without fearing i might lose 3 GL stacks

monk is currently the highest dps by a good margin as they are
and one ilm punch can instantly tear off stoneskins making it worth 1000s of damage in some cases. Situational does not equal useless

[Displace]

Yep,

one ilm punch has become one of most useful abilities for monk in 2.1. So many mobs cast stoneskin on themselves it's redick.

I did manor hard last night on my Monk. The final boss in the manor is not forgiving to people playing monk. The AOE areas are extra large and if you do not react the second you see a aoe pop or you have lag in a aoe, you are pretty much screwed since DD needs to be in the adds like glue or you wont kill them in enough time.

I still won the fight, but I don't think I will be doing it on my monk anymore until I am geared to ilvl 70 +.

The CT prereq Fate mobs, and the first add in the final boss of Haukke HM will cast it on the boss.
