Monk Changes

[Mahrze]

BLM hasn't gotten a regular GCD skill since FIV. Dragoon didn't get a new GCD this expac either. Bard got Apex Arrow but is hardly exciting atm. RDM got a new "finisher" but nothing else dramatically added to its rotation. SAM had no new GCDs added this expac either. Personally I have always really liked MNK, I just hated the feeling when you lose GL and lo and behold this expac that let me keep GL and move through the course of the fight without disrupting my rhythm.

So I will say it again: other jobs need more attention than MNK. SAM and NIN mostly, since they occupy the same role and there should be at least some justification to bring them over MNK (which there isn't right now), and then literally every ranged dps not named BLM (which despite having 3 circumstantial skills and 4 completely useless skills, I think is pretty much a perfect class atm). Fix the glaring issues with the jobs that barely anyone wants to play, and then patch up the #1 most played job in the game that does either the most or second most damage in every fight.

Prioritizing the jobs you mention and giving better thought of and planned QoL to other jobs should not be mutually exclusive. Jobs like MNK and BLM have such broken but working systems because they haven't the foggiest what to do to enable better options, so all they do to those jobs is add things to them that just make their basics seem more obvious in how "basic" they are. We can't just fall on this wheel of "what the flavor of the patch" job doting because it just makes things worse for the jobs that have to wait longer than others, I am aware that there can be jobs that don't need any or much tweaking, but that doesn't mean other jobs have to wait in line for problems to be fixed.
