Really stop talking such nonsense. You don´t like them? FINE... then don´t play them. All this bs with "getting punished for"... What if you missclick a skill? What if you stand in an aoe? What if you interupt your casting times? Do even melees have casting times? Why does RDPS classes have no casting times or positionals but 10% less damage? Why...? And and and....

Getting punished for mistakes is part of any game. If this wouldn´t be a thing, why do we even have boss mechanics or rotations? How about 1 buttonsmasher with perma-invul?!
All the mimimi about some unique game aspects and now we´re at a point, where a class... loved by thousands of players ...is getting dumbed down and homogenized once again.

SHAME ON YOU SE and SHAME ON ALL POSITIONAL-HATERS out there! You selfish and greedy .... going to make the game a no-brainer and destroy the last aspects of fun for any serious gamer out there. "I don´t want to be punished when i suck, i want to be uwu´d all day long to feel so great even if i ignore all class aspects and spam 1 button, uwu me please uwuuwuwuwuwu!!!! TY SE <33333 "
I seriously don´t have enough middlefingers to show to Yoshi.

Good Riddance to over reliance on positionals. Finally Monk will no longer be a movement mess that it is.

Finally MNK will be SMOOTH to play....FINALLY.

Ppl like you are called "movement-cripple" in MMORPG´s. Why do you even mess with movement-depended classes? Ahhhh right... because of some visuals and to cry about the whole class design. Maybe try... i don´t know... sidescrolling mobile games? No need to move there, some of them do even play automatically. You can just sit there and watch some animations while doing nothing all the time.

you mean just standing there? have you not heard of every single other class in the game that plays just like that?

Do you mean classes like DNC, BRD or MCH? Those with all freedom in the world which lasts in the fact, that they never stack, are in range for heal or die as most to any mechanic out there, because they´re so busy staying in the corner or any arena?

I have no problems with DRG positionals....because they make sense....the rotation makes sense.....the flow makes sense....

Monk positionals made sense....up to 3.0....after that...they were a burden just to add complexity to the job....nothing more

DRG or SAM aren't complex. And they still have postionals...but they don't RELY on them to make the job FUN.

In all honesty though...I do feel for those that felt the job was fine and that they liked the postionals. I really do because you worked very hard to become the best at monk. I would be incredibly naive to believe that we didn't see this coming. Of course they didn't tell us until the VERY last moment. There's no turning back now....only forward.

Would you prefer to stand still? If so Monk was never the job for you.

No....the new and improved monk job is for me! It's what I have been campaigning for YEARS! While I enjoy the new and improved monk with a WIDE smile on my face with 4 less positionals and a new attack system I may remember the time that I had fun on MNK in 2.0 and 3.0.

MNK already was smooth that wasn't a problem minus the burst phase which was clunky but that was a skill speed issue...
The tempo of the movement was part of the fun, if you think it was a mess then that says more about you than it does the Job.

There are now four other melee to play. I don't suppose you understand how SE balances jobs, do you?
