Please add positionals back to Twin Snakes/True Strike on Monk! Now is the best time!

So are and have positionals.


That "doing something" is normal rotation. Since you can't bank Chakra anyways outside of Brotherhood (at which point you want to spend it inside that raid buffs' window anyways), rotation outside it would play out identically. Heck, you don't even need the Chakra Gauge shown to use it optimally, as one could just tap Forbidden/Enlightened Chakra in each GCD-gap prior to the weaponskill queuing period (the last .5s of that gap).

Thank you for giving such well thought out answers to people so I don't have to!

I want to make it clear, positionals DO add something else to think about to all jobs they are present on. They do add something else to engage with. Any claim that they don't add anything is bogus. It is fine for people to personally not enjoy them, but that is an entirely separate issue from the idea that they don't add anything that some people are adding in this thread.

In my eyes, Monk DESPERATELY needs another layer with its current iteration. With us no longer having to manage DoTs or buffs, all we need to manage is Chakra, 2 positionals, our cooldown timers, and our Formless Fist buff. Adding a couple positionals back is exactly what the job needs.

Hell, maybe even add a (shorter) version of the positional ignoring mechanic to Riddle of Earth as middle ground!
