    Totally agree, with Sleigh, Aoe dps is not monks job, even Lucrezias monk dont spam AoTD in brayflox speed runs.

    I hate to say this, but Lucrezias is clearly using Arm of the Destroyer in that video.... A lot. Any time he/she doesn't have Perfect Balance up, he/she's using AotD/{raptor}/Rockbreaker in rotation. I saw at least 5 AotDs in the first 2 pulls (though mostly in the second since Perfect Balance was down). Though if we're talking about AotD spam you are correct. I don't think anyone is claiming AotD is a spamming move though.

    If you read what Sajikojiro said, he said to use AoTD once there are 4 enemies. Which is a total waste of TP in coils and some other fight T4 for example

    Even though my DPS job is not MNK (it's DRG), I'll agree that AoTD is way too expensive for only 50 pot. It's extremely draining with the GL boost. IIn light of DRGs getting a single target boost, it doesn't seem unreasonable to reduce the TP cost by about 25% or so for a little QoL boost to general MNK AoE (when PB is down).

    And haymaker is a pretty underwhelming skill in most circumstances. Even moreso as a cross class ability.

    One ilm punch is fine for what it is. Although it's not usable in a lot of content, it's very good when you can use it (like pvp or stripping the buffs off of S Rank hunts).

    MNK uses AotD once on the first pull and three times on the second. PB-Rockbreaker spam was used on the first and last pull.

    From what I could tell, AoE DPS was monk's job and he did spam AotD when Perfect Balance was down--mob count permitting. Absent a BRD, the only thing that balances out his TP use is the rest of the PT busting their asses just as hard.
