when they first released it was cool, it was ultra ahead everyone else that had vanilla level animations, every melee attack was a repetitive pre determinated thing from the race you were playing and so on.
being ahead back then felt way cooler.
then legion happened, remakes happened, and then more remakes happened, and they still happen.
monks got nothing!
and instead of hitting people with ferocity I still feel like doing harmonius tai chi instead of hitting people to kill them!

they just need to remake the fist weapon attacks to not just use bear hand animations, but actual fist weapon animations that include the weapons in the animation.
Right now the wrists are all wack and wasn’t meant for equips.

Priest Penance used to be a Kamehameha… now it’s just a jedi hand wave.
My chief issue is that while Monks can use a variety of weapons the main attack animation is all fist, if I want to use a pair of maces or a staff the weapons stay sheathed.

I like most of them but tiger palm feels pretty weak and fists of fury is kind of silly lol
I want them to update fists of fury. That move looks ridiculous.
cries in literally no new animations for ranged weapons since 2004
I would really like it if there was a toggle or glyph or something to switch between unarmed fighting and staff fighting like Chen in the MoP cinematic.

Personally I’d love to see greyish white mists like from what we saw in the Mists of Pandaria trailer video … You know, the colour of ACTUAL mist. 
- Additionally, it’d be cool to see some races have unique animations such as trolls using Shirvallah, the tiger loa – as opposed to Xuen, or a glimpse of Pa’Ku appear when renewal is cast as opposed to Yu’lon.
Some little things like that here & there, would be fantastic. 
Rising Sun Kit needs to be much much brighter. Fists of Fury needs to look way more impactful. Everything looks so plain.

I’m cool with glyph options, but I actually like fighting with hands, and 2H polearm on back.

Ridiculously awesome
They confirmed the return of Glyph of Jab.
This time though its function is a bit different.
Now it grants weapon attack animations for Tiger Palm.
I really like my monks animations.
I think they look cool.
Id rather they didnt get changed.
New model looks alright, the head is a big disappointment. Still hoping for a glyph to maintain my character’s look like Glyph of Stars and our old glyph.
