Different honey buns I guess. I hated it cause I'd clip my OGCDs and I'd run out of TP faster which makes monk useless when you can't attack cause your weapon skills are eatting more TP then normal cause you've been sped up. I didn't think it was fun, I'm shocked you did... learn something new everyday. Thanks for that bit of feedback.

I... don't think I've ever had a TP issue with MNK that I haven't had with any other DPS. Generally things die before TP ever becomes an issue, and Invigorate is a pretty good backup if a fight is stretching on for too long; TP has only really been an issue with AoEs when the other DPS isn't using Goad/Tactician. Most MNKs I've met in dungeons are pretty chill with an Arrow, especially sub-60. I know I do dungeon runs with other MNKs who enjoy it, and I myself like getting a well-timed Arrow during my RoF phase, or after I use a TK to make up for losing a stack of Greased Lightning.

Then again, I don't really take MNK into Savage content, either; I prefer SAM for that, if I'm going to play DPS. I keep my non-AST/PLD/SAM classes to the regular dungeons, 24-man raids, and Ex primals because there's less focus on optimisation and I can take it easy.

I wish I had your exp. Every dungeon I go in as monk I'm out of TP, mainly cause I aoe and I'm either paired with range/mage so no goad... OR my fav. I got another monk or sam who refuses to use goad. So I'm dead in in the TP water cause I'm the only one aoeing while I see a full TP bar on the other monk or sam sitting there doing single target. And I'm just like " Seriously.... now I can't attack cause you're being lazy and bad T.T " And then I get hit with the arrow card and I want to die lol.
