I don't have any reason to believe that Dawntrail will be any different.
This is somehow more depressing than the worst case scenario I had in my head. Only time will tell, but the thought of losing the things I like about MNK over a rework that no one will end up playing is actually infuriating. But I guess that's just the reality of being a MNK main. If this is how I feel now, I wonder how it felt back then for MNK mains to lose the legendary Tornado Kick rotation. That must be even more tragic in hindsight considering everything that came after.
