Monk is the only job that's damage is so heavily dependent on your group composition, and I feel like going forward this is really going to hurt the job.

I even consider locking 2 DPS slots to physical attacks when playing Monk just to ensure I have a decent chance at dealing damage, and that just feels ridiculous to do.

I'm not really asking for buffs, I think Monk is fine where it is. But Brotherhood definitely needs to be reworked so that they're not so dependant on a specific comp for their damage.
This is the usual group comp, though. 2 Melees, 1 caster and 1 range should always land you with 2 other physical dps.
