Sorta, at least in my Burst rotation, my procs are all set up, and I just throw up GB to release that BtE+CS+GR+Rico+SS+CS combo, and spread the Feint till I can switch GB off again. The change, imo, just gives us MCH less to think about while we Burst(damn so busy pressing buttons and checking their HP bar, I didn't check my distance x/ ) and doesn't really change the way the class is played. A good change imo.

The damage penalty for BRDs and MCHs are only lifted while under WM and GB AND are within 15 yalms of the target. What if they get further outside of that 15 yalms while we're stuck casting? Dmg penalty is applied again? Then there's also LoS. What was the point? Who is gonna even turn on WM/GB and stat within 15 yalms anyways? I'm obviously not gonna stand within 10 yalms and start casting just to have a melee walk up to me to have a chance at killing me. Somebody enlighten me.

Idk and im a MCH player myself. Plus standing still to proc, that's suicide to get ko'd when they come after you.

At this point I'm not sure if they play their own game before making these decisions. It's like they'll nerf stuffs that got complained about the most.

Please expand on why you think smn didn't need nerfs. Or if you think they nerfed the wrong part. Elaborate and add something to the discussion

I think taking a direct hatchet to SMN while ignoring the problems other classes have (drg auto-crit burst; ONE PUNCH MAN; scholar being hot garbage; drk being ???) is kind of strange.

I don't even think SMN was the most overpowered class in Feast (I think that's either MNK, WHM or PLD), so it's strange that they were targeted first.

How is monk overpowered? Cause they have the ability to remove a buff from a healer job that would still fall far behind the other 2 heals even if that buff was not removable?

I get it that they made changes to WM/GB to get more BRD/MCHs to use it more, but it's too much of a risk if they want ppl to get in close. It just going to make them a easier target imo, plus the latest changes for healer/caster it feels more of a waste if it's more difficult to interrupt w/o doing burst dmg. Even using it if a healer recovers, it felt worthless to use it against so it makes it want to go after a melee DPS more often on some matches i've played. Im just at a loss a bit playing as MCH cause I im not sure if I want to use GB throughout the match/s w/o taking a risk.
