19 Monk Twinks

[danny glover]

i'll be done gearing mine this weekend, then i'll start queing wsg. i'll be playing windwalker, just because it's the spec i enjoy the most. i don't find damage to be that bad, i just use tiger swipe or whatever it's called every 20 secs to keep up the armor pen debuff. After that I just stack combo points and use the kick. I imagine the fists of fury will be pretty good for healer interrupts and landing kills. ToT will also be good with a 30 second cd trinket/sprint, roll and the flying serpent kick.

Brewmaster is really the only thing worth using at 19, mistweaver is good but really doesn't do anything a different healer can't do better. Wind walker flat out is just missing to many things to take over other dps until it gets in the 20s.

This is pretty much spot on with what I feel. The sad thing about the Windwalker is that the DPS isn't much better than the mistweaver. The mistweaver can stay alive 1v1 vs most classes (feral druids and rogues offer some challenge). The Brewmaster will be good for CCing and Flag Carrying, but DPS is weak.

As for playing a 19 Monk, I won't be playing mine much after my tests. I am very disappointed. Whether someone else figures out some better way to use them than what I planned for, good on them. Like I said, Brewmaster is cool for CC but I would rather play a lock, priest, or druid than Monk right now.

we wont know if monks are really viable or not until dorigon says so.

It's not that, it's the fact that he has some unhealthy obsession with me and the website I contribute to. To me, it's whatever.

Monks may be buffed. Blizzard kept a close eye on Death Knights when they were launched and tweaked for a few months.

Ahh..that's why dk's were so balanced is s5 and part s6. Only took them 1½ season to realize

i guess i'm kind of glad they're not that great. they're still really fun to play and now i can do so without being called a fotm reroller.

Forgive me for taking the word of a guy who complained about MoP locks being bad with a grain of salt ;p

ww definately isn't a strong 1v1 spec. it takes too long to get three stacks of the armor pen buff up. also, getting fof to land is a pain in the ass with even a small bit of latency.

i think in longer wsg fights, where you can keep up three stacks and drop a fof on healers midcast it'll be alright. the mobility is awesome.

Vianco I didn't say it might be fixed SOON, Just that its definetly going to be looked at :i

bm monk is viable

I feel like a BM monk with a kiting D would be pretty sick.

 

[Nickolas]

I feel like you put the ass in assassin.

Thankz weenie <3

Bm is fun and perfect for D if not FC, WW is very mobile, I'm still playing around with my 19 in WW and having fun with it. I wouldn't call it OP. but it can even feel bursty at times especially if you can get FoF to hit anything.
