    I feel haymaker is somewhat intended to give a little dps boost from the front when soloing, its just not very good unfortunately.
    Keep in mind that the number of skills is limited and i am sure most monks would rather have new skills that benefit them for playing in a group rather than "wasting" three slots for a front combo.

    They don't have to add any new skills for a front combo, just make a front combo through the skills we already have.

    Example:
    Bootshine (back) 150 potency with Critical chance > Truestrike (back) 190 potency > Snap Punch (flank) 180 potency

    Bootshine - If used in front of a mob lower chance of critical then from behind
    Truestrike - If used in front of a mob 170 potency
    SnapPunch - If used in front of a mob 160 potency

    So the incentive to attack the "regular way" is still there, you'll have more damage by attacking from the back and sides, so that will keep anyone from wanting to attack from the front, but at the same time make it an option for situational purposes.
