Brotherhood. Why is it so weak?

[Powercow]

No, monk got 10 potency nerfs to their gcds, lost two of its 3 highest potency attacks(ToD and fracture) and forbidden chakra lost 70 potency to balance that it'd be used more often(I would say demolish was also nerfed, but its duration change is fine since there's no more ToD). The damage buffs you might be thinking of were just the old traits being rolled into the skills themselves, not actual buffs

They were referencing the Brotherhood damage buff, which Monks do not get. They weren't talking about the potency nerfs or overall damage.

But yeah, Brotherhood sucks. If it was 5% to all damage for everyone, including the Monk, it'd be half as good as Trick Attack. I don't think it's unreasonable for our one utility to be half as good as one skill from our closest competition's kit.
