    Perfect Balance only exists right now as a burst phase and could do with a more engaging replacement and Form Shift could revert back to cycling through the various forms. Neither source of "Formless Fist" is a serious barrier to compressing the Monk's weaponskills.

    Form Shift QoL change be reverted back to how it was seems reductive just to for the sake of condensing, Perfect balance is a burst phase and can be reajdusted to disregard Twin demo and the aoe resetting twin at FpF, having said all this MNK is still a bad example as ur never doing the same 1-2-3 twice so itll require to either be dumbed down and have a designated debuff/buff rotation or just leave MNK be focus on other skills that are bloat like the fists or role skills or its 3 Buff skills rather than trying to simplify its current rotation

    Wrong. The Monk weapon skill cycle repeats every 18 gcds as you alternate Dragon Kick and Boot Shine every Opo-Opo Form and Twin Snakes and True Strike every Raptor while Coeurl Form has Demolish alternate with 2 Snap Punches:

    1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 6 4 5 3 1 2 6 4 5 6

    Turned into a 2 button combo this becomes:

    1 1 1 2 2 2 1 1 2 2 2 1 1 1 2 2 2 2

    The rotation is far from as free form or complex as you believe.
