If ShB MNK was a 3/10, then EW MNK is a 5/10 to me. Decent, but still has some major problems such as boring downtime, useless buttons (Riddle of Wind, Riddle of Earth, Anatman, etc), Blitz has no presence outside of RoF, the job still lacks a clear identity for itself and Chakra still remains as the biggest issue to the job. What we gained does not entirely make up for what was lost.

That's all I'll say on the matter unless I suddenly recall something else I may have missed.
I’d probably call them both 5/10s, but with points derived from different places. If dftc just paused gl deterioration they could easily have addressed at least one complaint.
