I completely forgot to talk about Greased Lightning! And why it also makes me a bad monk! After each completed combo you get an additional stack of the Greased Lightning buff, up to three stacks. Each one increases your damage, so it's not until three full combos that I will be outputting full damage. Takes me a while to gear up. Internal Release will also let me kick up to three pretty darn quickly, just three attacks instead of three combos, but again, I don't use it because I'm bad.

Monk is one of two melee DPS jobs in FFXIV, and my preferred class. It tends to focus on single target, low-but-constant damage with little in the way of spike, ranged, or area damage. But if you set me on one dude with a lot of HP I can really shine.
