RIP MNK 1.x - 5.x

[ssunny2008]

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.

Why should i argue about that? I read the skill at its rework and the first thing in my mind was "ok, bye anatman". It might be useful in 1% of all content so.
But gratz that you´ve found that out by asking ppl here.

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.

You make you own points invalid by claiming controversial things and being unexperienced with classes you actually want to rework. You don´t even play the endgame much, the only thing in this game where a good performance is needed. Again, don´t play positionals on MNK?! What´s the point to ignore them in braindead content aka dungeons, bozja, everything in the daily-roulette, treasure maps, fates...

And imagine i´ve more gaming experience than the tripled age of this game. I do even like sitting on my high horse, together with my pack of skills, fast class and mechanic understanding and overall gameplay experience.
But of course, you´re right. I don´t know how to make this game better for lazy players. To create a 1 button game with rewards for free and animations kids find "super-duper-UwU-tastic" is under my dignity. I´m a real gamer, someone who learns classes and mechanics, someone who picks the challenge, someone who works for his rewards and someone who can accept, that not every class is made for everyone.
I can´t be proud to stay on dumb downed meta classes, or to show others my cool mount i´ve "achieved" with wall to wall gangbang, unsynched runs or while i got carried by other players or the content itself.

Your whole view is not grounded in reality, it is simply idealistic thinking. The REALITY is you are in no control over whether what a tank may decide to do, but what they do affects your damage. That is a designflaw for monk more than ny other as every ability is a positional. Reality says the tank doesn't care about your ideals, the tank will play how he wants to play. And don't come with this, "BuT iT IsNt SaVaGe!", cmon even in the normals people want to do some damage.

How about dancer? Are you sure your dancepartner plays well? Or bard with his songs? What about ANY other raidbuffs so far? MNK, RDM, DRG, NIN, AST?
What if a healer forgets to heal? What if your stackpartner doesn´t stack? What if you´re the bad guy, who lies at the ground and the group is wiping because of it?

Questions over questions and one simple answer... IT`S A TEAMGAME.... and shit happens. If you don´t want to rely on other players, don´t play a MMORPG. (MM means Massiv Multiplayer!!!)

Where does the "spin 2 win tank" belief even stem from? These posts bringing them up greatly exaggerate their uncommon occurrence and act like it isn't anything more than a mild inconvenience so long as they aren't griefing. Even if that was the case, that's a problem with that specific player, not a problem with a feature on an entirely unrelated role.

I´ve had one time someone in syrcus tower who did that on purpose. Spamming the ranged attack to stay high in aggro and moving in a circle. But seriously i can even understand the borderness to play such content over and over again especially since the tank dumbdowns, so who cares? Even as OT in savage i run my own circles, because you had nothing to do this tier. Man that was funny together with my old dancer... sometimes i even got dancebuddy.
And at the first SHB instance, i went afk to make a cup of tea. When i came back, i still tanked the endboss. Insane experience....

It happens once in ages to get such a guy, the most others who struggle a bit are newcomers. But if you teach them, all is fine. Ppl just exaggerating things like always, and of course it´s always the others or the games fault.
