    Wow, I'm sorry. I do not experience that. Whenever I help someone on HMs I will either take my SMN or MNK. No one ever complains when I take my MNK. Ever. They let me pick and we go with it, never a complaint. I'm not at the stage where I can help people farm Extremes yet, but I'm working on that.

    i understand the "bad melee" view...i really do. I went forever before someone told me that my attacks did better depending on where on the mob i was positioned. I also practiced on the dummy's in coerthas and learned which combos were best. Unloading up to 3 DoTs and then laying on the damage. My DPS increase was immediately noticeable when i put this into work in an actual instance. So those who didnt learn how to melee yet are really holding back quite a bit of power. Especially the ones that can't dodge and stay alive.

    Aah yes, some of that takes some learning. I'm always learning something new, the process never stops
