Combat Expertise & Monk Finishing Moves

[Deuce]

Just as a suggestion, how about making it so that Monk finishing moves don't pull you out of combat expertise? As it stands, use of any finishing move pulls you out of CE, making it totally useless for monks.

Thoughts?

Combat Expertise has been in need of a total overhaul, and not just for Monks.

By "it" I hope you mean the finishing moves. I'd rather keep my monk in CE and not bother with any finishing moves, which are sucktastic at best. CE needs some changes, but monk finishing moves need a complete overhaul.

Source? Not that I don't believe you - I'm praying you're right - but I'm curious what they said.

I found the post I read quoting Eladrin. I'm still looking for the original post but I'm sure its back in the archive somewhere

I do not intend for them to turn off Combat Expertise either, but that may take a bit longer to work around.

Edit: This is from October or so of last year.
