    I mean...he's not wrong. I still do it out of habit when I hop onto monk. Positionals are kind of whatever at this point anyways and are likely going to be gone come 7.0.

    They were always kind of whatever to me. Hell on Dragoon I flat out refuse to do them on a target dummy....and I STILL passed the DPS check. Now I find doing DRG's positionals hands down much easier to complete then MNK's as the job has a natural flow to it. Where MNK you actually need to know where you are in your combo, and what buff/debuff you need. For me it's such an insignificant amount of potency...unless you're one of those "parse fanatics" that only cares about a colored number.

    It's not about being lazy or down right defiant to the positionals. I just could not care less about them...I have even mentioned this to my static and other members of the FC. I'm not going to go out of my way so that I can feel a "form of identity" or put myself in harms way so that I can get that extra 20-40 potency. When I run P3S as my WAR it's ALWAYS a SAM, RPR, MNK NOT using true north and picking up a tank buster tether.....then I grab it from them...then they COME BACK in to get the flank positional....and they steal the tether away and RUN BACK to the party to nuke them....Then it's my fault? Again....the potency is NOT worth the hassle of potentially throwing a run. If you can...great....but if you can't hit postionals....SMASH the hell out of true north!

    I mean...good god.... P4S has got to be a nightmare to hit EVERY positional....so the design of savage content has just thrown postiaonls out the damn window, and P2S also...the hit box is non-positional. Thanks.

    Monk was just one of the classes that "stuck with it" for so long that nobody wanted them to go. I echo the comment that in 7.0....they just get the axe. I would pretty just go... "Huh....anyway...." and move on like it's not a big deal.

    I'm excited for the 8.0 Melee DPS rotation consisting of 123 and one oGCD every 120 seconds
