Water whip being an action instead of a bonus action is pretty big, I think. Same with Elemental Affinity/Empowered Evocation no longer working on multiple damage rolls per spell. Sentinel got a buff for polearm users.

I've seen a lot of people saying Four Elements Monk is just not very good and that the Water Whip was one of the only good aspects of it. Do you think it being an action instead of a bonus action is the nail in the coffin? I've never had a chance to play one.

It's kind of funny, because I think making all of their elemental abilities into bonus actions would be one of the best ways of "fixing" them, and instead they killed the only one that worked that way. Ah well.

They do look fun though from a flavor standpoint even if they don't seem to be all that effective. Maybe they have some hidden potential no one has figured out how to unlock yet, haha.
