RIP MNK 1.x - 5.x

[SpeckledBurd]

Aside from the completely unnecessary axing of two positionals, there are other changes among the EW kit that concern me and I hope they're cleared up or rectified by the media tour:

- Why is Brotherhood 120 seconds on cooldown? I appreciate that it means there's less buttons to cram into a burst now, but I hope it's buffed accordingly for the longer cooldown.
- Why an Arm of the Destroyer replacement? I don't think anyone in particular ever complained about how it looked. I hope Blitz gives it some use outside of AoE at least.
- Riddle of Wind???

As long as the potency isn't massively out of place elsewhere, 120 second Brotherhood is actually an improvement. One of the issues with Brotherhood at a top end is that a 90 second burst window doesn't align with most raidbuffs since they're in 1 or 2 minute increments. This lets Monk work better with other jobs.

Riddle of Wind looks like a replacement for something at a lower level since they've gutted a decent amount of the kit at lower level to rework it. There's a possibility that the "Fists of..." still exist at lower level, but now as buffs and they get upgraded to the Riddles at later levels, however that's just speculation on my part and it could just be a replacement for something that's completely gone.

As for replacing Arm of the Destroyer with an upgrade... well they sometimes do that to throw in a trait. Since Monk seemingly has a lot more in store than the standard 80-90 3 skills and 2 traits I'm willing to look past a changed animation. Plus it's massively better than the last time they did this with Tackle Mastery which didn't even change the animation.

Overall I'm still just waiting for the liveletter. Compared to Shadowbringers/Stormblood what they've showed is really promising, there's no major red flags that I can see, and they've given us decent explanations of what's going on with nearly everything but Anatman. I'll save flipping out until then.
