Alright: ADded info I had to cut because 1000 character limit:

1.) I have GLd, Arc, Lancer, and BLM at 20, mostly previous attempts from not feeling useful as a monk. None felt right so I went back.
2.) I generally can't do casters, ASthetically they just don't feel right to me, and cast bars really really bother me for some reason.
3.) My FC is gearing for coil, and as far as I can tell, very tank heavy, so i'll probably just grind monk up for coil, if I even get a spot, anyhow.. This'll mostly befor learning HM and going 32-50 (After I grind u pto 32 as a warrior)

Mostly, just.. read lots of bad things (and yoshi p kind of brushing off the issue) and looking for some insight from the people actually on teh ground playing warriors as to whether or not I should just give up the ghost and stay monk.
