It appears that there's significant population issues in both PvE and PvP with the class. I barely see any Monks at level 90, and clearly the population was low enough in PvP for Blizzard to try to buff them in 5.2. I'd also be lying if I said that I haven't run across a few Monk friends who are having issues getting into guilds as tanks, DPS, and healers because of our bad reputation.
Do you guys feel that Blizzard should have just implemented the class in an OP form and kept them OP for a few patches until the general population became used to them (ala Death Knights)?
