The entire Idea behind monk makes no sense

[tosuik]

Real life parallels will never, ever work out.

For what it's worth, fighting monks are popular in fantasy fiction, and they aren't always religious ascetics.

If you want to compare pop culture ninja to historical ninja, nothing will make sense. This is in large part because spies and assassins who are subtle and never seen tend to make for boring elements in an action setting.

Finally, the reason for the comparative lack of front-facing actions among DPS jobs is explained by game mechanics: unless you are the tank, facing mobs in party situations is intended to be dangerous and mostly undesirable.

I dont know if you read my second message or not, but I did state that I dont expect, nor want the PvE to change. I mentioned how standing behind mobs in PvE is better for positioning and it makes sense to keep it that way. other than that, I appreciate your input mate!
