So in Endwalker, Perfect Balance has charges on a 40s charge time, and AST still has 30s Draw (but with 2 charges). That's not super ideal for openers when you can't refresh the charges before a pull. It makes the pre-pull time excessively long.

MNK and AST don't have skills to refresh those charges out-of-combat, but strangely Ninja does and has had one for a long time with Hide. They specifically let Hide refresh Ninjutsu so NIN can Huton pre-pull and still have all their Ninjutsu at pull time, so why not do the same for AST and MNK?

A couple options:
  • Reduce charge time for both skills to something like 5s when out of combat.
  • Add Hide-like refresh skills to both MNK and AST.
First option is nice and bloat-free, but it runs into weirdness if the charge time is already ticking? Second option bloats a bit, but has the opportunity to reuse old skill icons/animations. Purification for MNK and Sleeve Draw (removed in EW) for AST. Give them 20s CDs and just restores 2 charges to the respective skills while out of combat. Woo.
