I seen many videos of HW monk and i ahve to say HW monk was bad. I been ona nd off monk since stormblood (mostly cause i started in the 2nd to last patch of StB and i was using PLD for story since i enjoy that job and the stance dancing), but for me DT MNK is more rewarding then just "ok gotta manage GL, gauge, chakra, buffs, debuffs, dot, etc, etc." If anything to me current MNK feels mroe rewarding since you can use teh 10 chakra for double enlightment, forbidden chakra or even giving SSS a huge dmg buff for bonus movement for a mechanic. My least favorite of old monk was GL it felt so stupid to have that when it should stay as a passive so teh job feels like its ramping up on its damage
