MP Drain - Fist

[Meleena]

Just because, say, XI's Monk had no resource management is not a proper justification to exclude it here.

In 11's case when Monk used kicks was not a buff, it was a different way of playing the class, another "stance" if you prefer.
You dont need to have a resource management to change from a Monk to Samurai (thats what kicks did in FF11).
In this case it's a buff that uses MP and its not even elemental.
Its not about immersion, I explained my reasons in the other thread, read it.

It's an everlasting buff, just like the stances. Instead of being governed by a recast timer, it is governed by an MP drain cost. Idk about you, but I rather like the idea of choosing when to have/not have a buff up instead of being bound to a recast time.

Read at the other topic and try to understand why MP is not a viable source to use for this.

lol no need to keep referring to it. I'm managing to keep up with both threads just fine.

I just want to focus on the other thread because there is no need to look on both of them for the same subject.

Featherfoot and alternating my t3 howling fist combo 2x with keen flurry then using my sucker punch combo with buffs is more than enough to manage my mp pool. you just gotta toggle fists on and off when its needed. Having amazing mages in your group that keep you topped up and buffed throughout the fight helps, you should never need to reserve mana for anything other than offensive uses.
