    When I first saw mnks using meditation, I thought it'd be on it's own cooldown so you could use a skill, use meditation while waiting on the cooldown for the next skill. I was horribly wrong when I lvled mnk :/ They really could have done something better with it too, rather than "spam 5 times, use once, wait until everything is dead, spam again". They could have done something special for each stack and had it on its own cooldown so it wouldn't be a "spam, use once, done", like giving us a 2nd skill that goes with it, so we use meditation for stacks, but each stack changes the other skill etc. Could have been something like...

    1 stack - 100-200 tp restore
    2 stacks - 200? 250? potency hit, like a weaker forbidden chakra or perhaps an AoE, we all know mnk could use some, especially when tanks pull huge groups.
    3 stacks - recover 1 stack of GL (for those times your tank decides to be "clever" and drags half the mobs with him in the middle of fighting, causing GL3 to wear before he stops again >_> )
    4 stacks - hp recover, maybe on par with second wind
    5 stacks - forbidden chakra

    Of course, it'd have to be on a cooldown of say, maybe 1 min? So you couldn't abuse the hp recover / damage, but it'd still be short enough so it'd be useful a few times per fight. It'd also help bring mnk's damage up some. From leveling with a fc member's drg 50-60, dungeons all the way, both geared about the same, his damage was blowing mine away. Yes, I was doing positionals correct too, I'm not a lazy mnk like 75% of them lol There were even times we'd both be on a different mob (the tank couldn't make up his mind so no matter what we hit, he'd lose hate anyways) and his would be dead before mine even hit 50%
