    Haymaker: I feel that no individual move is specifically targeted at any given aspect of gamplay - it's that certain aspects of gameplay are not designed to accommodate the move. That's simply arguing semantics so I get that part. You can't please everyone, or build for every ability in this game. Everything has a time and a place - yadda, yadda.

    It could be used in group play as it can technically activate on an AoE, but even if it did it's largely useless because you could be doing another attack that is far more effective. If they took it off GCD, it wouldn't be that bad of a weaving move - even if it were something that was super rare to pop. I've not met a single MNK that hasn't wanted this move taken oGCD, or simply doesn't care. Granted, their reasoning might differ from my own. To that end, I want it off GCD but wouldn't touch it otherwise.

    Arm of the Destroyer: I'm good with it as-is. If I were king for a day I'd definitely either give it a TP cost reduction or a pot increase. However, I understand why it is configured how it is now, and I have no issues with it. AoE isn't our bag. ST is.

    Fists of Wind: Honestly, I barely ever know it's there. That's not to say I don't use it, but if I'm in a group I either have a BRD around or my FoW is pointless because I still have to wait for my tank who has no movement buffs. In open world, I switch to BRD if I want to get around town quickly. So it's kind of a cheat.

    One Ilm Punch: A personal pet peeve that it does not work on instanced content. However, I understand why. We'd become stupid powerful if we could rip buffs off of bosses. Especially as how many endgame bosses have buffs as part of their mechanics - often resulting in DPS gates. If we could strip buffs, we could demolish (no pun intended) the gates and make the fights even easier than they are now.
