No Monk is not a copy of Ninja now. Trick attack window is very rigid, with some extra stuff thrown in during even minute cooldowns. Monk blitz window has more variance, with the even window being a different beast than the odd window and having more variance in the burst window than many DPS classes currently in the game right now.

I can commend the rework for being an extension of one of MNK's original core design concepts, which is the form combo system. OG monks enjoy the flexibility of forms with multiple options for combo follow-ups at once? (to an extent) New PB expands on that flexibility letting you do any three GCDs without combo requirements for solar windows (yes there is an optimal order but sometimes that can change in the chaos of battle and it's the concept that matters). I think new PB is a smart extension to a historically GCD focused job. I'm surprised people are pointing criticisms at the blitz system with it's skill expression rather than what actually needs some improvement, that being elements outside of that:

I think that ROE is an unexciting mit that is left over from 5.4 when it was a second true north. It's both uninteresting but also overpowered, giving you 3 charged of 6 seconds of high mit. You have it for every almost raidwide and whatnot since it's so generous and as a result it becomes busy work that is used too frequently. Sam and RPR's mit is used less often but has more interesting effects with more flavor. Literally just copy ROE from PVP, I don't see why it couldn't work in PVE. Monk already has mantra so healing is a part of the job theme already. It would be fun to be awarded a heal for popping it on large unavoidable damage.

Also ROW being reworked into something part of the rotation could be cool. Maybe something you earn stacks and as a reward you get either higher movement speed or higher auto attack like the current version but it's not just a CD.

And chakra overflow like c'mon.

Anatman should increase chakra gauge toon and it's honestly golden. I don't think it really matters if that overlaps with gaining chakras one by one during downtime, they would both have their uses. It's just annoying trying to fill up your chakra meter and then your disciplined fist runs out before you can press anatman.
