Ok raided a few times.. So now have a better understanding of the raid level of the changes for drunken monk atleast..
Only a couple things that really annoy me, i'll live with ashen hands. Would still rather see it 400% damage 5 jin 20 second refreash or whatever and maybe Secrets of Transencence made useful to use that jin on. Maybe make the finisher openers alittle more useful for jin usage...maybe a 5 second auto crit added to em or something w/ em off global.
But either way i can live with Ashen hand the way it is.
 I really like the new jin surge alot. For me it became alot more viable. I have one Major problem with it though. Currently on live its going on your defencive targets group instead of you, needs to target you and your group.
 Another fix for drunken, (non dps game breaking i don't think) would be and we half the refreash on staggering punch.
Those 2 changes would add some flow, w/ out heavy targeting macro's, and add alittle more choices without raising dps really.
 (edit: oh yeah forgot the mention secrets, int based monk blah blah. Borked, broken, needs a change... i think secrets of transendence maybe being 100% proc could maybe fix it...... maybe ashen hands needs to be int based instead of str for damage?)

I am not a raid monk so i can't comment on raid damage. I usually solo or duo with either a bard or shaman.
Being ready to hang up my 50 monk and delete my account i was supprised that after GU6 i didn't need to.
Sure I lost some DPS but with the stance fix 12% mit fand the 6% damage buff i can still solo 48 4 dots.
I can live with these changes and would do it with a smile if they would do something about casters ability to solo 5 dots and in some cases 6 dots.
I hope that with the GU6 updates some casters will still be willing to join a group and not just solo the content that the rest of us need a group for.
