Monk Discussion Script
Added 2018-08-02 22:41:51 +0000 UTCHey everyone! I've finally been working on a project I can share with all of you here. The usual vids don't allow too much in terms of sneak-peaks aside from the director's cuts and there isn't really anything I can talk about creatively in that regard either. The content is there, we run it, we react, I edit. But this time I've been working on something a bit more original that may not be all that entertaining, but it's important to me as a FFXIV player: the Monk discussion!
While the video portion of this will be pretty one-sided (you can't talk back to me through the screen), I wanted to post the script I have here to get preliminary feedback from you all before I start recording later this week. This is a subject near and dear to my heart and I've finally gotten things together in a way that I'm happy to present. So whether you agree, disagree, or think I missed something, feel free to contribute to the discussion in the comments here.
That being said, enjoy!

First when I started out FFXIV, my main was a monk . I mean , who doesn't love punching your enemies to dearh 😂? Though it did quite feel slow with the charka stuff from 50-60. Like outside from phase transition, I was kinda sad I couldnt use the forbidden charka as much as I could 😂. I tried out samurai when it came out , and I enjoyed lots more since the job isn't as punishing as monk (missing positionals, etc) . Though I'll also agree with the drg thing mentioned, I tried it out from lvl 50-60, and I absolutely love it so much !

2018-08-04 06:42:05 +0000 UTCI loved MNK until I finished the lvl 60 Job Quest. All that buildup of unlocking the chakra, seeing other MNKs getting the aura around them, I just KNEW I would get it too. Then I finished the quest, did not get the aura, and honestly felt kind of cheated. I'm a DRG main, and you hit the nail on the head as to why DRG is so cool in XIV. The story, the animations and the abilities themselves all tie together to make it what it is. I love the way MNK's look, and the story was good, despite my one major complaint, but it just doesn't all tie together the way DRG does, and that's unfortunate. I like the script, didn't really see any errors, and the ideas are interesting, though at this point, overhauling the Chakra and Greased Lightning systems will not be easy! Also, I do think the Longsword variant of a meter would work for MNK.
