MNK 4.0 Changes . . . I'm not a fan tbh

Are they really planning to leave the job as it is now ? and even tell us to "calm down a little bit ?"

Why can't they just admit how bad they fucked up the job and fix it ? If we're mad there is a reason, we know the job since we played for years.

I'm really mad right now <_<

Did they really say that? Where? Because I really hope they did, so they give me a reason to rage quit this job as soon as I'm done with MSQ. I have been maining it ever since I started playing over 3 years ago and I am, as basically everyone, just.... not happy.

Yoshi said in the E3 conference a couple days ago. He said everyone needs to "calm down a bit" and play the jobs for themselves before coming to conclusions. I had hope, but I really feel like they dropped the ball on a lot of jobs.

Yep. That's exactly from the translation of the most recent (E3) interview when talking about WHM and especially Monk players.

Exactly what anyone exasperated over incompetence and a poor track record for timely and satisfying balance corrections needs, right?

After browsing through the job's list of skills and abilities, I frankly am satisfied with them. And that's coming from someone who has been maining monk since November(-ish) 2014, with some white mage maining at the very beginning of Heavensward.

Weaponskill potencies have been reduces by 10, but Twin Snakes increases your damage by 10% instead of 5%, and Internal Release gives +30% critical chance, which easily makes up for it.
TP costs have been reduced, giving monk players some relief in drawn-out battles, and less reliance on Purification and Invigorate.

Frankly, losing the stun on Steel Peak is my biggest complaint. That will be quite the adaptation process.

we had enhanced twin snake which was already a 10 % increase and im pretty sure enhanced internal release was a 30% buff too

man just read the patch notes and omg i can feel the dev team was drinking haterade when they were working on monk like seriously wtf...first time im triggered enough to complain in a forum geez

It was 5% base, but increased to 10% with the trait, which is the part that escaped me. So that's my bad.

Twin Snakes has always been 10%
Internal Release has always been 30% (Cross skill classes it was 10%)
Lowering potencies by 10 isn't that big of a deal, sure, but I guess it more than makes up for it seeing as those two buffs didn't change.

And if you're upset about losing steel peak stun fret not. One Ilm Punch always stuns on raptor form, which easily makes up for it.

So the #deletemonk was taken to heart by the dev team it seems. Welp time to jump on the sam bandwagon, I guess that's why we share gear with them.
