Monk Role needs Changes

[Silver-Strider]

Even with what you are saying being true... anatman is still out classed by form shift. Why would a monk choose to stay still it whatever position they are in and just hold form and gl instead of being mobile and be able to shift to raptorinorder to catch the boss asap to refresh twin snakes. All while still able to maintain gl without being locked in place. If ur argueing about just using it for a second then there is no reason not to use form shift. As for ur idea with sss, sure why not, if its the very last thing u could possibly do...and why not u could tornado kick aswell right after sss, and if ur in a intermission then u could theoretically do a anatman... but by this point in time your perfect balance should be off cd and it allows u to get gl4 without loss of dps.

But all this being said is if the fight doesnt have any adds coming out, if it does u effectivly cut urself off at the knee.

Because Form Shift and Anatman work in tandem with each other. Take Eden Prime for example. During phase transition into add phase, I can get SSS and Tornado Kick in before the boss disappears and there's enough time in between to get into position for adds to spawn that Anatman will build up 4 GL stacks again. Not doing so would mean that I would lose out on a huge chuck of damage from Tornado Kick on the boss as I Form Shift myself over and over again just to maintain something that Anatman would build back up in time for the adds anyway. Then immediately after Eden uses her Ultimate, I can Anatman to regain 2 stacks of GL before she becomes targettable to attack at all since I can't form shift to maintain GL during the long animation of that attack and have to build it up anyway.

Anatman has a very valid use in that fight because of that and form shift cannot replace that.
