I just hope that the current state in which Monk is, is just a temporary one since it looks to me like a new piece of paper that's about to be written on, with no actual flavour or anything interesting.

Monk should be getting in my opinion, something like a berserk state (no square enix, not another inner release or aetherflow), that makes Monk, if certain circumstances and requirements have been made, like, not having been hit at all for 30 seconds or so (or having been the main focus of a enemy for that long) faster in both movement and attack speed, granted increased evasion aganist melee attacks (like a 25-35% chance or so during its duration)as well as oGCD being reduced, every following 30 seconds until being hit.

But what more likely is going to happen, is that they keep him that way and remove any remaining traces of mechanics until it just becomes a auto attack machine that needs sometimes some buttons to be pressed, i guess having original Jobs is way overrated in 2020+1
