I'll start with my own wishlist.
Apkallu(IV) stance

no, just no. We have too many stances as it is.

[Yumi_umi]

Anything new kinda , cuz honestly it'd be taking the lazy way in an expac ppl paid for if SE were to just spam the numerals on already existing abilities.
I.e medica, medica II, medica III, medica IV etc
Stone skin, stone skin II
Cure I, cure II, cure III, cure XIV lol...
I prefer the ra, aga ,aja endings for abilities if they r gonna keep making them like that :S
Or even better just make "whole" new abilities and old ones get scaled to current expac standards.

Haste and the Melee DPS version of Foe for Bards.

That's all I can think of.

Trait - Advanced Shield Lob
Causes the shield to ricochet off its target and strike up to 2 nearby enemies before returning.

Weapon Skill - Hallowed Blade
150 potency with the effect knockback, target will only attack the caster for 10 seconds. A rescue the healer skill.

Cross-Class - Cure 2
Enough said.

This is why the devs stopped asking for player input, all I'm reading is a horde of abilities with little to no consideration to scale or balance. 4th Aetherflow? Greased Lightning IV? Try to keep in mind how the current jobs will scale and realize that some of these abilities would make content almost faceroll easy. I love monk but I know that a 4th Greased Lightning would require some significant boosts to other DPS to stay competitive. I'd rather see a return to some of the 1.0 mechanic which involved disabling parts of the mob to weaken them or increase damage, basically give you a reason to use a more varied rotation in order to more effectively battle. This would give people an opportunity to refine their skills rather than just a baseline increase in damage.

Well, that's fine, but is there anything you would like to see?

Trait - Advanced Shield Lob

This one sounds neat. Grabs aggro on a group of mobs as part of a pull from a distance, instead of just one.

I love monk but I know that a 4th Greased Lightning would require some significant boosts to other DPS to stay competitive.

I mean, several jobs receive flat 20-30%damage buffs at lv40, and received a 10% buff at lv20. I don't think they'd give one DPS class abilities that significantly increased damage without giving others the same thing. At least in the case of Increased Action Damage on BRD and Maim/Magick and Mend on BLM, WHM, SMN, SCH, since they've been given at lv20 and 40, lv60 will have one too if they continue to follow that chain of progression.

I'd like to see some more abilities that are fun to use and situational, like bounding heal from WoW. Or more stuff that relies on timing. Like imagine a manual block skill for PLD that converts 25% of the next hits damage to MP (or something). Of course, the way this game currently handles animation and buffs would need to be changed for something like that to be usable.

[Verlyn]

Also, love the bouncing shield lob suggestion. Something like that is super fun and satisfying on a visceral level. Need way more things like that.

[Slappah]

It would be great for monks to get a skill that gave them immediate GL3 (think axe kick just it would probably need a lot longer CD)
