Dont know what you mean (ok, didnt played new monk yet).
At last at the end of shb was he allready "brain dead". Whe haf 2 positional skills for each position. I had placed each side in on line, so, that i only needed to change position one time per rotation.
I even keeped that in EW, after whe was reduced to 1 position per side.
I dont have any experience of allways moving around. At last not more, as with other meele.
From what you say, is it keeped that way with the new monk to. And it Sound nice. I liked the shb monk, because i was able to shut down my brain and simply punched, what was begore me.
EW needed a bit more thinking with the new chakra. But in overall is the monk the second most streamlined class, only after drg. What i actually like
