As a Monk main I can honestly say these changes are absolutely INSANE
This is so damn dope! You love to see it. Monk mains rise up!
3:25 the answer for people who really liked that style of gameplay from EW Monk is playing Viper lol
Monke MADNESS
MNK rotation vid guide please
since there's pretty much nothing around yet atm
So what's the actual rotation look like now, for someone who is complete garbage at figuring that kind of thing out D:? I just enjoy doing content and raids but would love to …contribute haha
So… we're back to the mind numbing endwalker rotation…
idk it feels worse to me. even with the increased potency
I was a little bit excited for the seemingly massive damage buffs but ill settle for the same dps with more rear targetting
I got my muscle memory set up for the 7.0 change… Now I have to adjust my muscle memory once again
I honestly really loved the 7.0 rotation. It felt really good to optimize how many Bootshines you could get out and Fires reply worked wonderfully to cater to that playstyle. I guess we’re back to normal now though.
Honestly I really didn’t like EW Monk it’s so plain, but oh well
Personally, I hate the change. Makes the change from buffs to balls feel completely arbitrary rather than intentional.
Plus we get to see the fancy new skills (especially Rising Raptor) less.
Perfectly Balanced
only thing i dont like about monk are the upgraded ability vfx lol
first rotation change to monk in 4 fucking expansions and were going back.
monk is actually awful and this proves it always will be.
I’ve really liked monk since the EW rework and I think the slight adjustments made with the introduction of riddle replies and removal of boring DoT management makes for what I feel like is a more free flowing combo class. Just feels good man. No hate if you preferred different iterations on the class, but I personally feel it’s in a really good place for my tastes.
Which is the melding priority now? Will skill require skill speed?
have been using lunar solar opener and rotation for years, guess it’s back to usual with little reply here and there.
Is it ever worth refreshing gems before odd minute burst (double lunar) so that you go in with your buffed PB solar gcds? I figured maybe not but im definitely not good at figuring stuff like that out.
I mean you'll be using the buffed gcds during odd RoF at some point anyway but i feel like i could be wrong in just playing the rotation straight
