Monk right now, for me, feels like being given an "ice cream cake" that turns out to be filled with mud. I leveled it to about 64 before I gave up on it to level (the soon to be nerfed) pally. Came back and leveled it to 70. Haven't touched it since.

After reading the patch notes for 4.0, with every ability taking a potency hit, it felt to me that they wanted SAM to take the top spot for melee.

The addition of riddle of fire as an ability also felt like an insult, if anything they should have temporarily increased monk's speed with an ability. This would have let you get greased lightning back faster after loosing it.

Overall they would have to change the job significantly to make me excited to play it again like in 3.0.
