It looks like the Brewmaster spec is going to be like a mix between prot and fury warrior. Aoe slow, targeted slow, good at taking damage, and an aoe cone damage ability. May have to reroll if that's the sort of thing you are looking for ;p

Monks are gonna be dk's 2.0 at lowbie levels like beginning of wrath.

Not like pallys were 3.0 though :)

Hmm that's a good idea... I may do just that. And I'll be one of many, I think.
 
im not sure how tanky monks will be at 19.


but i will say that my 19 monk does a shit ton of damage and i dont even have any gear other than boas


heres the stats of my boa brew master

in case everyone missed it, tank monks get 30% HP instead of 30%(or whatever druids gets) STAMINA. so they will have a lot of hp x)

Very interesting. On the first day of MoP release we will be able to locate all the awful tinks in the bracket using battle.net real ID.
 
It's a shame for druids, Wild Charge has been changed by the looks of things. And not for the better.

Ehh that is pretty debatable.. Killing a druid EFC is going to take a LOT of coordination, think about it, the other team keeps a healing on the 2nd floor, and roof. The druid jumps down- you can either.
1. Jump down after the druid while he simply jumps back up to 2nd floor then to roof
2. Focus the healers waiting on the roof and 2nd floor while the druid makes an escape to the top of tunnel/GY
3.Have people waiting to intercept the druid in the FR, 2nd floor AND roof... Most pugs can't tie their shoes let alone kill a flying druid
 
Of course Monks will be op like Dks were. They want you to buy the expansion. How do you get children to buy something? Make them think they are more powerful than God himself. Or cover yourself in candy. Whichever floats your boat.
 
on DKs blizz did comment somewhere into wotlk that they listened to player inputs too much on the class and sorta admitted it was a mistake. wotlk beta was a closed beta, but when the wotlk PTR started people started in with DK's need this, that, etc, and changes/buffs along players with ret-pals did some extensive whining too about being tired of being lol-ret spec and got insane buffs. people on live servers who also played on wotlk PTR gave huge warnings 1-2 months prior to the wotlk prepatch. beggers out did the complainers and all of it went thru and it took patches and hotfixes over 6-12 months to bring those classes slightly down.

appears blizz history is repeating again, cause alot of players started qq'ing about monks feeling weak at low levels, have to wait to long to get certain spells, and of course blizzard is caving in again. monks at low level now have a fleet of movement/casting slows, gap closers, speed boosts. one of the gap closers actually sorta works like a DKs death grip...provoke.

monks are the new DKs from what i have seen

like this entire post makes no sense

wotlk beta was a closed beta

so was/is tbc and mop. so whats your point?


the wotlk PTR started people started in with DK's need this, that, etc, and changes/buffs

what? PTR didnt have dks. ptr isnt the same as beta. why would people on ptr be saying what dks need or dont need at level 70, when they arent even available?

and of course blizzard is caving in again. monks at low level now have a fleet of movement/casting slows, gap closers, speed boosts


what? what do you mean by "now? their abilities havent really changed much since beta was released.
and a "fleet" ?

this is what monks get at 19;
brewmaster(tank); 1 slow, 2 gap closers with 1 being a 35 second cd and they have to pick between an extra roll or a sprint
mistweaver(healer); no slows 1 gap closer and again they have to choose between sprint or a roll...
windwalker(dps); no slows, 2 gap closers and again they have to pick..

and monks dont have a single casting slow ability. but i guess 0 = a fleet now

also you probably dont even realize but roll isnt much of a gap closer.. you move in a straight line. same with flying tiger kick(windwalkers 2nd gap closer) they simply fly in a straight line for 40 yards or until canceled.

one of the gap closers actually sorta works like a DKs death grip...provoke.



thats their taunt: youre thinking of clash which will cause you and your target to charge at each other and you meet halfway. and only tanks get that so its whatever


u also might be forgetting that monks dont have any stuns, interrupts, heals(unless specd for it), cc(other than tank slow) an actual gap closer unless youre a tank, low armor, no cds like bubble and evasion and other abilities at 19. their offensive cds are their defensive cds(being able to roll/fly away etc)

but w/e man



the only thing thats over the top for monks at 19 is their retarded damage. they buffed monk damage because it sucked at 90 but i guess they didnt scale it down right.

Blue, since you seem to be on beta, does the dps spec's frontal cone aoe have a stun component? I have seen it worded both with and without a 4sec stun.
