How is monk after the rework?

If you really think they are, you never will be good as a monk and you can´t even use the positional damage bonus in many types of content, maybe from side but the bonus from the back is often not possible to do.

Btw with positionals i only mean the dmg boosts from the side/back, ofc you use all those skills for combos/build ups(this doesn´t need a specific position) but the positions themself aren´t the most important thing anymore.

You're just objectively wrong, and I dunno what you mean with '' you can't do them ''.
Are you talking about Delubrum Reginae?
You don't need to do them if the mob has a full circle beneath them but otherwise in 99.9999% of content you DO need to do them.

Mate i don´t know what type of player you´re, but in this regard you´re completely unexperienced or just a troll. I don´t know who told you such nonsense or if you found it out by yourself. Positionals are the main part of MNK and the most important stuff ever to perform as a DPS class. Especially the bonus from the back is actually the most important thing. Bootshine -> unforbidden chakra ftw. Not to mention that you´ve stuff like true north or riddle of earth to play around an amount of mechanics where you can´t hit your positionals. And like the preposter said, a fat ring means, that you don´t need to hit any positionals. It´ll always count.

So please stop spreading false informations, just because you think you´re in the right. You´re clearly not and any serious (or even non-serious) MNK player will tell you that. Just because you out-dps some casuals in content noone will ever take serious, doesn´t mean that you´re a good player or that your rotation is well played.
