Since arm silence can only be utilized as the fist hit of a 3 move combo, it's unreliable at best since that portion of the combo would have to align with the casters cast, or you'd have to delay the use of your abilities,, which would net a dps loss or worst a chance to drop GL3. Bottom line is arm of the destroyer is trash
    That's mostly true, but with PB you actually could spam it if you liked and it would work (until it was resisted), just like you can spam bootshine for 100% crit rate from the rear during PB or use any of MNK's regular rotation skill set to the maximum effect out of order (for 10 seconds).

    EDIT: Fists of wind is almost entirely useless. I've used it to run back to a boss after a wipe, thus saving 2-3 seconds of travel time. That's almost certainly the greatest effect it can have. I don't think I have it set to any hotbars anymore. 1 ilm punch can be great in PvP, but it has almost no use in PvE of course. It's fine I suppose. Other classes have less used or nearly useless abilities too. 1 ilm punch is a bit more annoying to me though because it could be so useful (I thought it would be when I got it) but there's just no opportunity to use it in serious content.
