Ninja and Monk - Weapon Morphing Skills

[reyre]

I can only speak for me as a MNK but i am not convinced. While it sounds interesting as concept im not too fond of the idea, it just seems off, somehow the nunchaku doenst fit (for me) with ff14 Monk, it actually feels out of place. I mean why would it even be there?(lore wise). Besides as a mechanical idea its just a copy of DRG move set... kind of. So it would be the new FoF and a weird one at that, why would a single target DPS would want aoe? One of the complains of MNK is that it is skill bloated (im sure most clases are in a similar position)an example is Arm of the destroyer (an aoe GCD) being kind of useless, so why would any monk want an aoe skill if its trying to get rid of one? Hope fully they remove stances as well, there is simply no point in them. So why would they add yet another one?

most martial arts movies nunchuku martial artists uses like bruce-lee he has a-lot famous scenes where he pull out single or double pair of nunchuku. take out large group of enemies . however still uses martial arts. mechanically what could happen is that turn your normal single target rotation into aoe one sort duration while its active watch wouldn't button bloat but it would give monk better aoe opinions. idea is out their. nunchukes apart of final fantasy history maybe not so much. also have thing about how hard it would to animation more acrobatic approuch to dps constantly whipping twirling rapid pace of dps.

why think it fits with monk cause in reallife nunchuku are like extentation of self. energy can flow throw them at very end of nunchukes tip where ki is released.so can see the monk using their energy throw them channeling whatever energy they use. master of nunchukes uses such speed what makes them deadly weapon. only class see using them if ever did add them to ff14 is monk. that being said a bo staff is just as effective however idea one weapon per job. dont really agree with. would like see more weapons added to current jobs. even if it has to be a skill and a limited duration

if ever seen bruce-lee do its nunchukes what i wouldn't give see lalafel do something like that pair mogchuks
