Riddle of Wind

[BucklesTrespen]

Sorry to post here, I hope somebody here can understand and translate.

Developer never visits the English site. Only twice in ten pages have they responded to us - both times about Black Mage. Developer does not care to answer our questions and concerns.

Please have the Wind Tackle grant Monk the effect of Greased Lightning.

It does not make sense to have Riddle of Wind Grant Greased Lightning. This is because Monks will have to use an ability TWICE to refresh our stacks of Greased Lightning.

Dragoon does not have to use Blood of the Dragon twice to reset their timer.
Black Mage does not have to use Enochian twice to reset their timer.

Why do you keep making Monk needlessly complicated? Make it simple.

Monks have to press many more buttons than other classes just to keep our class mechanic active. This is unfair. You said you wanted to close the gap between Monk skill levels and make them more forgiving, but then you add too many steps to a simple process.

You have given us a way to keep Greased Lightning but it is attached to a skill we use in our rotation because it has a high potency in Fists of Fire.

Please consider something like the following:
Remove Potency from all Shoulder Tackles and apply the potency to Steel Peak.
Give Monks an actual Riddle of Wind skill just like how there is a Riddle of Fire and Riddle of Earth skill button.
Allow this new Riddle of Wind to automatically put us into Fists of Wind.
Allow this new Riddle of Wind to reset the cooldown of Shoulder Tackle.
Wind Tackle only has 1 charge and will refresh the cooldown of Greased Lightning on use.

This will solve the problem of our Greased Lightning refresh / granting skill to not be used in our DPS rotation. It will always be on cooldown when we need it.

Dragoon Elusive Jump does no damage so it is always available to them.
Black Mage Aetherial Manipulation does no damage so it is always available to them.
Monk Shoulder Tackle should do no damage so it is always available to us.

Im almost positive that it's the triggering of the Riddle of wind buff that gives a gl stack. Same way that Riddle of earth doesn't refresh gl but instead taking damage and gaining the buff earth's reply is what refreshes gl. We xan wait for confirmation but im almost sure that using wind tackle and procing Riddle of wind will grant the gl stack
