    Well to be fair. I think they are top preforming DPS due to the Double Phoenix Opener so that we can line up with raid buffs. If we didn't have the double phoenix opener I guess we would fall below RPR. Maybe SAM.

    The fact the jank is embraced...is exactly why it's one of the job performer. Hind sight is always 20/20 in this regard. SE just didn't predict this I'm assuming.

    UGH...I can't make up my mind if I want it fixed to prevent form using dbl nix....or just stick with it while SE just shrugs.

    I play on PS5 with controller, and I think that the amount of busy is perfect in that regard. If I was on keyboard...I would probably be pretty bored. I'm stuck in my Main tank role in my static, but I can echo from a main monk that said the old monk would have been AWFUL to run savage. He appreciates the new MNK as it's very forgiving and engaging. He is crying with P3S prog currently.

    I'm on the fence with the new MNK....but it's MUCH better then were I stood before this rework. Which was in the love hate camp. Now i'm in the "it's better, but needs the jagged edges removed" camp.

    Keep it up SE.

    That strikes me as unlikely. The difference between the openers is small enough that the MNK guide on The Balance recommends defaulting to Lunar/Solar unless you already know your kill time, and are therefore certain you won't lose a use of PR. The removal of double solar might bump up BLM to #1, but that's probably it. MNK as a whole is just overtuned.
