RIP MNK 1.x - 5.x

Hello my guy...

Anatman IS pointless. Just form shift. That MINIMAL gain over a long fight IS pointless. You can argue, but it is never going to make thta much of a difference.
Also, just because you don't like what I am saying, doesn't make it an invalid point, get off your high horse yeah. A lot of you think you are some kind gods at this game, but seemingly never played anything else. You don't know how this game can be better because you don't know how these kinds of games work, YOU are in fact the inexperienced one.

minimal gain ≠ no gain

Monk has historically been the king of minimally useful, niche skills there to act as a bandaid on the mechanic that was greased lightning. The fact that you're unaware of this and are constantly on here criticizing the job because of its core identity without knowing what its skills are for really proves ssunny's point that actually you're the inexperienced one.

Yes, but that's precisely my point. Given those tools... why remove the positionals from all Raptor skills?

It might make sense, QoL-wise, to essentially turn RoE into a simple stack system as I described before, but short of that... what use do we have for a form losing positionals?

Riddle of Earth is a stack system, so I'm not sure what you're asking for... you get three stacks of it currently. I can't defend the loss of the positionals based off the blitz mechanic any better, though, since we don't know too much about how the system will operate yet, only to say that the devs stated that this was the reason they were removed from those two skills. We'll be able to weigh in more as to if they actually needed to do it once we get to play with it.
