Monk Needs a Complete Rework

[Sora_Oathkeeper]

So it seems, it feels kind of like NIN rework... To be honest at this point i will take almost anything, short of a actual nerf. MNK is in apretty rough spot even a potency increase would be good. NO it would not fix the fundamental issues that the class has nor would it make it any different BUT it will, at the very least, make it relevant, and that is a win i guess and we take those with glee.

Yeah, they specificially mentioned how NIN was reworked before leading into how MNK will be changed in the same aspect- adjustments in the immediate patch, followed by a rework in the next patch.

As for how they will choose to rework Greased Lightning I'm thinking they'll scrap the damage and speed buffs from it and put them as traits and turn GL into a resource which could fundamentally work like polyglot.

^ i like that, basically you use certain skill to generate GL and spend it on certain skill, maybe tornado kick and six sided star? (both become OGCD with cooldown)

though in my mind i was thinking the damage and speed buff is still there, but you just need 1 stack of GL now instead of 3 or 4, so the play is to keep at 1 GL at minimum

edit: well currently form shift will restore GL duration to max after 3rd form (after ceourl) so maybe we just need to go until raptor?
