The upcoming monk pass is no longer coming, due to the changes getting leaked here and the initial reaction from players was negative  Roll Eyes

The odds of those half assed clowns actually doing something that actually improves the player experience are so close to nil, they might as well be negative.

Well, sad that monks are still going to suck for a very long time  but how do you know this?

An half assed pass was better than nothing and let's be honest, it's not like that delaying the pass means the next is going to be any better (because ROCKSTARS). Worst thing is, monk is a PAID class, keep this in mind when you have pally in party

Wait.  That is what you meant right?

Good.. I wasn't really happy about this pass. It really did not make much sense.

Monks are an easy "fix".. Just give them more to work with defensively. More PRR, More MRR, More ways top migrate damage... Monks don't have to be the top tier DPS, but they have to have some good lockdown abilities (which they do have with Stunning fist, tomb of jade, drifting lotus) and the ability to survive in the thick of things. That's it!

Sure, killed for now.  Just means they'll circle back to it later and probably implement on the quiet with a stealth patch.

Ya that shit taking away jade would have collapsed the monk world
As is no one plays ninja or Henshin. Dead builds

They have no idea about ki, and this was their idea
Reset it all to zero
Nuke it and rebuild it
But it’s an include and transcend

That and the change of finishers

I think trance got em tho

Unfortunately you can't actually have less than a 0% chance of something happening. If you could, SSG would do it.
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

Nah its pretty straightforward: the odds of SSG doing something that actually improves the player experience is 0, because you can't have a number lower than zero.

Still, I suspect SSG will try.

I said they might as well be negative because odds are that those idiots will likely make things much, much worse instead of better.

That seems to be their MO.

Currently trying to figure out if the immunity stripper on fire savant applies to the elemental weapon dice on EK. Thinking of re-specing my now useless sorc into an inquisitive firebrand....

You need to cast a spell first iirc from my last sorc EK memery.

Damnit. So much for that plan.

I suppose I could ditch savant entirely and go T5 EK... ick. Need to stop thinking about this.

Savant's only useful if you plan to be a non-fire EK.

Otherwise just got tiefling and strip immunity that way while maxing die from EK capstone.

I can't TR again until they release the next series of TR grinds Sad (I mean I could but I refuse to TR for no value)

I'll probably just spec into some stupid firebrand cha-to-dmg melee and embrace sucking. Goodbye nuker, you were fun while you were viable...

Embrace piking!  I tend to steal a few kills, maybe 10 or so, and then just ride the wave.  I don't want to win the epeen olympics, and we both get something.  They get the big shiny kill numbers, I get the fast completions/loot.  In a pinch, I'm basically an advanced hire-ling.  But I'm mostly blitzed all the time, so I'm probably worse.

I don't usually group. Most of my time is spent multi-boxing grinding for loot that I want. Sorc was both fun(meteor swarm never gets old) and fast(I could faceroll R1s very quickly). That was how I made my fun in this stupid game.

No even then you're still better than the average hireling, and you just left klin stegan in the friggin dust.

Lyn killed the monk pass because it was fucking garbage. How can you 'design" for a game that you are not even remotely competent enough to play at even a decently mediocre level.

I was actually worried that she would break something major on the other side of the game if she touched monks and hand-wraps. She should just focus on end-game loot, augments and artifacts rather than playing with spaghetti code.
