Thing is i actually like current MNK, let me be specific. I like the core of the class, doing positionals, having a priority system in the combo (having the option of a branching combo even if it is A or B path), building up to somenthing meaningful i.e GL.
That makes the class actually fun for me, it keeps you on your toes unlike NIN or DRG hell even SAM and their very static, boring rotations, that provide almost no enjoyment or skill celing (FOR ME!!) so after a week playing those classes i just cant care enough. (Perhaps i am a bit salty because of SAM taking the place of the selfish DPS after yoshi said that making a selfish DPS was very hard)
Unlike sqwall, (or what it seems that his point is leading to) i dont want MNK to play like any of those 3 melee in an attempt to make it "flow" it will kill the game for me honestly. (And it would seem that sqwall likes the aesthetics of MNK not the gameplay at is core. Like liking BLM for the cool explosions and then saying he hates the shifting from umbral to astral or the 15 sec timer as an example. But i digress)
However it would be disingenuous to say that the class is okay. Its pretty far from it. I would like postionals to feel meaningful, not just "LOL if its not leadenfist who cares if i miss it". That alone would provide a high skill celing. Remove stances. To this date SE has not figured a way to do stances properly in this game, just make them a trait.
Kill Brotherhood, this is the single most cancerous skill for MNK. It forces MNK into very specific party compositions and it affects the rotation not based on the player actions but based on OTHER PLAYERS RNG (What the hell SE?). Allow for chakra control and overflow, this is highly linked to the previous one.
Make SsS/TK part of the rotation, how? I have no clue. Could be like xenoglosy? Could be like sharpfang? Who knows, i do know however that the current iteration of SsS and TK is pointless. Put more oGCDs.
Outside of that (and only because i have high ping) make PB be 11 seconds, that simple change would almost certantly kill 90% of high ping complains. (I mean if the gameplay remains somewhat similar to what it is now. If it changes this is a absurd request)
GL never bothered me and i am kind of surprised that people have so many issues keeping it up or are so annoyed because button spamming, but hey you do you guys.
If i have to say, i would love if the fast paced combat remained, i love that about MNK and the flexibility it has with is forms/combo system.
PS. Bring back ToD and Howling fist.... Oh! and remove Enlightment from chakra.
