    I don't think Monk suffers from boring design (this is obviously subjective) the sped up GCD adds a lot (1.94 is the sweet spot right now) and I feel that chakra builds fast enough that you feel busy most of the time, the Blitz skills also feel impactful, especially at 90, I've been playing around with it and I'm enjoying it a lot. Personally I would have preferred it if they kept the positionals for bootshine/dragon kick like in the media tour build, but I feel the job has built a stronger foundation to stand on than just having lots of positional requirements.

    Not to mention my monkey brain hasn't adjusted at all and I still hit all the old spots like I used to, so it doesn't feel like much has changed in that aspect.
    - Yes i expect it. Monks playerbase didn´t increased so far, if anything it has become even lower especially for a complete rework. Overall old MNK mains seem to think the same.

    - We had faster MNK´s than 1,94 before. This GCD is nothing new.

    - MNK has nothing to do out of PB windows and even chakra seem to happen overall less with brotherhood on 120s and less DK/BS spam. Imo the burstphase feels even to the same before with less to do thx to 0 oGCD´s.

    - Positional give us something to do. In and out of burstphases and they´re far better than pressing more buttons called oGCD´s. They bring something to the gameplay and do even help to perform your rotation better.

    - Blitz would´ve been a nice addition if we still would´ve ALL positionals left, but instead we got Blitz without anything, wuhu...

    Using 10s TN for that 1 time Demo or SP every 3 minutes feels like a trashplay anyway... RoE ftw!
