Dragoon got Fang and Claw and Wheeling Thrust. Ninja got Armor Crush. Paladin got Royal Authority and Goring Blade. Bard received visual upgrades to all three of it's primary GCD abilities. Every caster and healer class has received new or visual upgrades to it's primary GCD spam ability (the healers multiple ones). Heck even Machinist has received an entire visual overhaul to it's entire GCD line-up. The only one I can think of that may also not have received one is Warrior, but at this point Fell Cleave happens so often it basically counts.

Meanwhile all Monk has got has been situational BS. Pretty crappy overall.
Problem is not just the special effects but also the sounds, they are very lackluster. This next expansion they are working on should have one big focus, to make monk really cool even if they have to take inspiration from games like black desert online.
