DMF – live poll

Just as an FYI, and sorry for the new topic, but making monks c class just completely takes away strategy. Monks will now become a MUST have unit, and make formations truly 8-man + monk (it’s probably even worse right now, as in all formations are 7-man +monk/exo). True balance and improved strategy comes from balancing the monk. DMF’s are good for HG and it’s healing power.

Making monks C class just limits the options and strategies available. Reducing the power of the monk so that it is viable to choose 0, 1 or 2 is the best outcome.

leaving it as the way it is takes away strategy too. you have to either join them or lose. pick one.

the problem is that just reducing their power isn’t enough. 1 monk would still be fairly useless against most builds if their power was reduced. 0 monks would require more or less lowering the effects of many skills such as ice ridge allowing mercs to have a turn the moment freeze is over.

Stun team – Princess ****s them up. Spartan ****s them up. Cannon SBomb ****s them up. Need I go on?

DOT teams – getting major nerf in next patch b/c Musi getting double shafted from RM nerf and Hwarang intro to game. Also, Puri scrolls can hit them hard if timed right

Triple Spear – Ele FAtmos that crap or HG front + Awaken scrolls or Ridge

All of those are easy to beat if you play it right.

i’ve gone back to single monk in fl today, and roflsauce it makes you realize that double monks are OP.

by simply replacing the monk with an oracle, a lot of people who should be “easy” are a bit tougher to say the least, my fights were lossless but i could certainly tell my formation was a hell of a lot weaker.
-have to pre-emptively scroll to stop seal/freeze/atmo/etc lockdown, plus you cant even guarantee the scroll since you cant even warcry their ranged mercs they hg’d
-have to sit on your ass if a dmf awaken/hg’s mid since they basically become immune to stun pressure and skill based lockdowns

dont get me wrong, i love it, they’ve won me the last 4 weekly’s in a row on argos but honestly it’s too strong for many reasons which have been infinitely said in many topics here.

removing or rebalancing double monks will herald the return of variety, although people will favour cookie cutter builds, there will actually be alternatives available *gasp*
