Let's Talk About Monk "Problems"

[NovaLevossida]

You're talking about a complete change of how the job functions, not just a slowdown of .30seconds per GCD for 20 seconds. MNK can still utilize the same potential it's had since launch aside from the Riddle of Fire exception.

Or, in short, how the job feels to play.

Or, in short, how the job feels to play.

How the job is played does not equate to how the job feels to play. You basically had to keep that ability up on BRD full-time. Here, we've been told, MNK is basically at the speed cap we want for DPS jobs and can't go any further. So for 20 seconds, we punch slightly faster than base GCD without GL. It is not require full-time to reach optimal potential for the job.
