6.2 SAM; Optimism

I agree with the downtime issue and some buttons feeling useless, altho I think Riddle of Earth is a pretty strong Defensive tbh.
20% less damage on a hit is quite a lot especially with big AoE damage going out in Savage it can be the difference between life and death, I've definitely had moments where I survived and the rest of the DPS didn't because of it.

I don't have a problem with MNK having personal mit, but more so that RoE is very clearly an afterthought of a skill after 4/6 of our positionals were removed and I would like to see it not be the skeleton of something it previously was. Honestly SE's insistence on sticking with the Riddle skills has always been a minor nitpick of mine especially since Riddle of Fire is really the only one that has been able to stick. I just feel like there are better ways to represent the Buddhist ascetic side of Monk.

Couldnt they just slap the original kaiten effect to Iaijutsu so it automatically adds the old 50% buff if you have the 20 guage? Could care less about kaiten as a skill i just want the old effect back rather than this wierd crit thing...

Couldn't they just put the button back
This seems like an incredibly janky way, as well as uninvolved from a player perspective, to do what is easily fixed by just not doing what they did
