Enhanced Brotherhood lets you open a chakra on every weaponskill while under the effects of Brotherhood, but instead how about Monk just opens a chakra on every weaponskill forever.

4. Riddle of Wind... I'm not sure. Maybe it could grant an effect called "Flurry Ready" or something which allows you to execute a Six Sided Star without the double GCD penalty.

I personally would really dislike to have chakra up to 10 points. It would force us to safe as much chakra as possible for our burstphase and i´m really not a fan to hold a gauge somewhere in between just to randomly unleash a skill at 9 points. We wouldn´t overcap, but overall it wouldn´t change much. 6 Points should be enough to get away with 90% of all overcaps.
On top they could add that even critical autoattacks could give us a point of chakra. It would procc more often and imo i like that bit of RNG more than static oGCD´s.

RoW should be revertet in FoW. Just give us 10% more movement speed and 10% more attack speed on top on our autohits. Combine the stance with a cool looking aura or something and i would be fine with it. Imo i don´t see the need of a 3rd active buff, which is nonsense anyway.

Otherwise if they would add chakraproccs on autoattacks, we would´ve different phases to go through. 100% burstphase with all cd´s, then the 60s RoF burstphase, then the 90s RoW chakra burstphase, and so on...
Maybe even change RoW from a 90s cd to an "active gauge - skill" like: You´ve used forbidden chakra 5 times, so you´re able to unleash RoW which grants 15s 30% faster autoattacks or just 500 skillspeed for some fast fun?! Or automatically chakra generation each second? I don´t know, i´m open for anything which is not the current button.
