    Melee dps aren't even balanced among themselves atm.
    You're forgetting the fact that Monk still has GL3 in PvP, +15% Damage , then there's Demolish +10%, Then there's Riddle of Fire /Earth(Each +10% and 60s CD) then +3%(trait)

    and neither T-Kick nor F-Chakra have a CD particularly(only 10s, and it takes less time than that to rebuild GL3 meanwhile Fchakra is likely to be up after its 10s CD has expired, or around the same time.), While not recommended you could probably fire off T-kicks almost as rapidly as Raitons, maybe more often TP depending. Form shift can give you GL3 quite easily, and it only takes a a few combos + somersaults to actually have F-chakra back.

    Yeah Bhava is stronger by 500 potency, but the 40s CD hinders it in comparison to either FChakra or Tkick. The Ninki resource is also used for both Mudra(CC or burst) and Bhava. so you're making more decisions than a Monk ever has to with it's split resource.

    Ninja has +10%(SF), +10%(locked behind hide usage) and +3% DMG up trait.

    Monk has quite a bit more damage than you might think it has. It still has honestly the strongest instant burst out of the melee even after the nerf. Prior to the nerf If you used Boot (RoF/+RoE)> True (FChakra+Tkick) > Snap(somersault) With Demo up on target + offense buff, It was pretty much a guaranteed or almost guaranteed kill on most targets, even with defense buff. 100-0 solo Whilst rebuilding a single stack of chakra/GL to prep for next burst shot.

    The nerf weakened monk but its still really strong burst wise. It's just not gonna solo someone out the gate like before.
