    I don’t think what they had in mind was intentionally delaying our strongest attack so it can line up with raid buffs. I’m going to take a guess this was unintentional result that they didn’t test for.

    I guessing that they wanted monk to not rely on raid buffs. Which I think is kind of unique as we can just do our own thing without worrying about lining up with a raid.

    But obviously we have embraced the jank. Kinda wish they would just give us a answer that mnk should be so damn strong and that’s correctly working.

    Obviously they overlooked (or underestimated the community) the whole double phoenix thing, but either way the intentional design was you just did all 3 blitzes in order and phantom rush was supposed to occur outside of raid buff windows.

    The wording on my previous post wasn't the best, but that's what I meant by intentional design and I was referring to the double phoenix as "jank" because players are not supposed to be doing that.

    I agree. I agree even more that they underestimated what the community would have ultimately come up with the double phoenix opener. MNK's dps is in the stratosphere it seems and it's stupid good in raids with a double phoenix opener.

    If anything leads me to believe they will fix anything jank...i.e. BLU mage coils farming. That they won't change anything here.

    Still just wish they would come out and say..."working as intended" (even though Yoshi P. said otherwise)
