MNK needs a minor buffs

[AsahinaMyLove]

Better remove the annoying "Stay behind of the enemy" or "Stand at the side of the enemy" stuff o_O
I never ever do this!

Oh and I also never use this very small 5% dmg buff(Ninja has 20%!) from this Fire-Aura (my game isnt in english, no clue the english name :P)
I always has this Aura on that increase movement speed to dodge atks, or running to next target(s)

Don't play MNK.

Stop with removing
They should add a "stand in front of the enemy" skill, like it was during 1.x ^^

Play Dragoon or Ninja instead.

Part of the challenges unique to monk is the heavy positioning reliance. If you're not willing to you're massively handicapping yourself and should play something else.

Pls no.

It's bad enough watching Ninjas explode trying to do Trick Attacks on bosses and then getting eaten by a cleave.

I would tend to agree with you there.

You call that bad? I grab popcorn for it. :3

Uh...Trick Attack is a rear-facing attack. You mean Sneak Attack (which at 50 you should use almost never use)?

Except for trick Attack you need to hit the enemy from behind, not the front, the one that requires frontal positioning in Sneak Attack, which you shouldn't be using on a boss except when you can't reach the back.

Thank you. I couldn't remember which was which (Haven't really levelled it); I just know they had one and I've watched several people explode trying.

Make GL drop to the next lower tier instead of falling off entirely, rebalance damage slightly to compensate. There I fixed it.

Look. If you think MNK needs a buff, you need to take a step back and ask yourself if you're playing the right class.

MNK isn't easy.
1) You need to time your actions right just like any other DPS class.
2) You need to understand the timing of AOEs and when it is safe to take the risk to throw in that positional action.
3) You always, and I mean always want to keep moving. If you see a monk that just sits behind a enemy and spams skills like they're a DRG, they're doing it wrong.

There was a time when I wouldn't even use True Strike because honestly, I was lazy and it seemed like too much work... However now I don't even have to think about it. I try and go play tank and my friends has to tell me to stop moving. It's such a fun class and I would be bored af playing a ranged DPS.


If you think DK and Mantra are overrated and you consider them useless.............................. Uh, do you know what they do?

Dragon Kick - Reduces target INT and BLUNT resistance by 10%.
Blunt?? Guess what? Monk uses blunt attacks..
INT? Intelligence. If its a magic attack the target uses, its damage is now reduced by 10% or so.
And you can keep this buff up ALL THE DAMN TIME!

Mantra - Grants a 20% boost in healing magic. Radius: 5(?) yalms.
You know what healers love? Healing more.



Also we don't need a boost in GL duration. Some fights just flat out suck and if you keep comparing different DPS classes to each other then you'll only disappoint yourself because each class is different and best in certain situations, which is the whole point of having different classes.
