    Monk openers often require out of turn combo hits hence, perfect balance. So I’d be against one button combos in PVE as well.

    Considering MNK don't do combo, this is completely different. However, what they could do is having skills change depending on your form.
    For example, Dragon Kick becomes Twin Snakes in raptor form or Snap Punch in coeurl form (Flank line), Bootshine becomes True Strike or Demolish (Rear line), etc...

    On top of that, you'd have a special "Perfect" version of each skill that applies all the bonuses of its "line" at the highest potency, available under Perfect Balance. So, "Perfect Flank" would hit for 220 flank, grant leaden fist and increase damage by 10%, while "Perfect Rear" would crit 270 from the rear (or 290 under Leaden Fist) and apply a DoT. And both would give GL.

    In the end, there are several ways to reduce button bloat without removing any skills and the tactical use attached to them.

    Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.
