Monk Needs a Complete Rework

[ItMe]

Because they didn't say anything during the live letter, I almost wonder how much was actually in stone at that point...

So from the patch notes that I understand is this:

Perfect Balance = Bunshin and monks are not in the ping burst window category per say. We have 15 seconds to use 6 charges... very doable.

Anatman = Extend Twin to 30secs and reset your current form timer and halt it. I will test this prior to Perfect Balance to see how it carries through the 6 charges and keep your form after the last charge. Tight window for the form, but that's where the fun is. This is kind of acting like inner release extending the Strom timer to give you more flexibility during your burst phase. I'll test this out further on Tuesday.

Tornado Kick = monks rotation now and begs the question when to use it. Should be used after twin is up, and can now be weaved much better. I just don't know when.... since it's 2 every 90seconds. So it's outside of Brotherhood and RoF buffs, so should I still prioritize Twin, Brotherhood, RoF right before demolish goes up, and once demolish is up pop TK into Anatman -> Perfect Balance for high DPS weaving my Forbiddens/Enlightenments.

Brotherhood = a good and bad. The good a true double raid buff, Raid's get a flat bonus, and monk get's the added magic and melee opening a chackra chance. Over capping on chackra.

Chacka(meditation) = Good and Bad. Like the above, chackra seems like it will over cap now like crazy and weaving it needs to happen constantly. With out GL uptime being an issue this might be perfectly fine

This seems to be exactly what yoshi p did in the live letter footage with out the anatman....only twin wore off with the last Perfect Balance charge with a double dragon to start the next GCD combo into Dragon > Twin > Demolish

Form shift > Wind tackle > Twin > Brotherhood > Riddle of Fire > Demolish > Forbidden > Dragon > Elixir > Tornado> > Perfect Balance > Bootshine > Dragon > Bootshine > Dragon > Bootshine > Dragon > Dragon > Twin > Forbidden > Demolish > SSS

I'm not sure why you would use a anatman at all when not in forced downtime ESPECIALLY after PB

Anat is likely going to work the same way so you'll still likely be standing for 1-3 seconds waiting on a server tick. It's not the primarily situational skill in our kit
