This game dont need monks ... useless job

[Fellesarah]

This is the conclusion I took on the monk, nobody needs it, the entire content of the game can be done without the monk, and a Dragoon and Bard are the best options for a serious coil group.
Square Enix needs to rethink the role of the monk in the game.

Monks cons

Low melee dps compared to Dragoon
Has no evasive action as the Bard and the Dragoon
One Ilm puch is garbage
Mantra is garbage
horrible weapons (monk weapon design department needs to resign)


Monk pros

none

Monk is a great class, you're just playing wrong.

Monks are one of the best single target DPS.

Sorry for a bit of OOT, but...

what anime does your siggy come from? Looks hillarious! XD

And back to topic:

It is really wrong that MNK is weak. I saw with my own eyes how geared MNK can dish out nasty damage, mobs HP dropping as if their life got sucked out by dracula.

EDIT:

haha... 2 ppl now asking your siggy. You must tell! XD

I'll take a monk over a third ranged on Ultima HM any day. Past two times me(DRG) and a monk were paired we didn't even have a second Ifrit charge with plumes phase the DPS was so good. By the way, I can actually admit that monk has the highest average DPS over dragoons but they are more position based.
