MNK Anatman and Perfect Balance

[kobe-sabi]

would it break monk if Anatman also grant a random Nadi' with a 10% damage increase for 10 seconds at 120s recast, while having Perfect Balance only available during combat. to me i dont see nothing wrong with it since Fist of Fire 10% is gone and Riddle is down from 25% to 15%.

this will allow burst for monks hardest hitting Phantom Rush skill but lock the monk from executing one 700 or 600 potency skill for the 2 Nadi's needed for Phantom Rush.

Make Anatman useful by putting it on 2 min CD and giving you both PB stickers for Phantom Rush and also putting your Twin Snakes buff and Leaden Fist buff to 30s without falloff so you can True Strike and Bootshine forever.

Or let Anatman let you go ham with every Blitz skill as a burst option.

As is I really see Anatman as prime remove from hotbar material outside of the occasional Boss Jump.

i guess so, i thought they would change it since, many said its an useless pretty to look at, ability

[Duskane]

personally think anantman should be turned into an emote then they just replace it with a trait that lets you get up to 10 chakra

Anatman is designed to be a downtime skill, so I get that its uses will be niche, but I do think they could have done something more in line with Improvisation with it. Like maybe if you're in range of the monk, you take less damage, and the monk generates chakras while using it.

Upgrade mantra and use anatmans animation. It doesnt directly shield or heal but buffs healing skills in a 15 yalm radius for as long as you stay still.

If Anatman has to change reduce it's time to 10 seconds or so to match pull timers and just make it grant you one free perfect balance at the start of a fight if you do the full time and make PB combat only, stop the -24 second PB opener before it even exists.

Yes, though you can keep them separate too. Mantra can then continue to be used in combat, similar to how shield samba can be used in combat, while the damage reduction would be the skill you have to stack for and the monk not move. It would be similar to the two dancer skills, just in reverse. Doesn't have to be exactly that effect, just add any party benefit while also generating chakra stacks over time would make it a viable skill.

Anatman granting stacks of Formless fist (doesn't have to be Formless fist it can be a new effect with the same or similar effect) would make Anatman amazing with the new Blitz system. Just like Sam Meditate.

Anatman imo should just decrease CD on Perfect Balance with 5-10 sec on each tick or something like that.
