Is that some sort of "early access" joke ?

Monk is fine. It's a little early to be going all doom and gloom especially when you aren't even level cap.

So from the first leaked tooltips, to early access, MNK looks to be far behind the other DPS. From the beginning people've been telling us to "calm down" and "it's not the final build". Come launch, and almost nothing has changed. Now Stormblood has been released, chakra generation is super slow, Brotherhood is now the worst raid buff in the game, worse even than the media tour and E3 builds, and MNK damage is looking to be the worst out of all the dps. When lvl 70 comes and MNK is behind, will people be telling us to "wait for the 4.1 fixes"? When is it finally okay to complain about the inherent problems in our class?

? When is it finally okay to complain about the inherent problems in our class?

When you can back up those complaints with hard fact as opposed to theory crafting?

I'm just guessing though.

Is that the right answer?

Welcome to the world of the 3.x Bard.

It does get better, but probably not until SE sees actual numbers in dungeon and raid instances ... which is when such things tend to get adjusted.
