How could GGG make Monk's early levels (1-14) feel better to play?

It's been talked about how Monk's lv1-14 doesn't feel good to play until you get Ice Strike or even until lv22 for Storm wave. Usually when people make Monk league start guides, they recommend using a Bow & Quiver until lv14 or lv22.

What could GGG do to make Monk's league start feel better to play? And why didn't the current lv1-14 skills hit the mark?

I have started like 3 Monks in POE 2 now. Just started one yesterday. I'm 3/4 through Act 3.

I see nothing wrong with Monk. For me, it's by far the easiest class to get through the campaign. Starts strong, then not only gets OP with Ice Strike, but starts moving so fast. I complete the campaign in about half the time compared to other classes when I use Monk.

I think monk start is good the way it is tbh. You don’t need to wait for ice strike, glacial cascade is good enough at killing everything if you get the sweet spot.

I’ve pretty much always mained monk in leagues and never noticed tbh but like I said, I haven’t played with other classes.

It’s challenging but in a good way. I never thought it to be too difficult.

Edit: Warrior was the class that seemed ass to me but I never gave it a legit shot.
