Everyone that played during wod is fine with monks being below average for a year or ten imo. Especially 29 brrewmaster which is a serious contender for most broken twink spec ever imo
Monks got butchered so dramatically with changes made for legion that its hard to believe whoever designed the changes wasnt a victim of some kind of traumatic monk related incident irl . They have the most godawful level 15 talent choices in wow history imo which hillariously are identical for both the tank and dps melee specs

I disagree.

Roll is dope, energy off heals are dope, disable is one of the most underrated and op spells in the bracket for supporting your dps, you do mid tier dps and can survive a lot of 1v1 situations
Your damage might not be as retarded as fury warrior or something but you fit nice and snug into any grp and are a melees best friend because of roll / disable combos
Speaking from a veteran stand point ofc, @Donor can speak from a pure f2p perspective if that's what you're looking for he probs has the most f2p ww experience out of anyone

Disable is the most annoying ability in the bracket and for this reason alone, WW is good
Just don't ask him for monk xmog advice...

Also @ OP monks get bis food from zen pilgrimage vendor for dirt ass cheap +6 primary stat in bgs
A ww monk can get like 17 extra agi from food and flask alone

Alarm bells ring when your 'ww is good' campaign involves alchemy and pandarian racial as selling points lol. I tihnk food got nerfed to 3 primary as well.
Anyway as is tradition in this meta, everything is viable with the right amount of druids and shammies in your group. WW is fine.
BTW does MW still have stronger burst @20?

Obviously you didnt read my initial post AT ALL but okay
Yes MW still has more burst. Let me guess in your brain that makes ww not viable?
Also I found this bit of hypocrisy funny considering the only toon I've ever seen you on is a fury warrior x))

WW is a cool class to play. It’s not one I would want to main, but from time to time I like to switch my Monk to WW and just punch and kick some heads in.
I seem to find resource management a bit lacking in longer fights, but their ability to slow and even healing debuff makes them quite handy in bg’s.
For a side project they are great.
Btw @ohti thats a damn fine WW u have there!

I admit the sentence above is far more exciting then 'Monks have access to a vendor that sells monk only food which gives +3 primary stats' but you have to admit to the healthy amount of spin your phrasing implies, 14/17 is not exclusive to monks lol
Honestly? In a bracket dominated by god tier healing specs Burst is by far the strongest form of damage and for monks the strongest burst by far is from the healing spec. I dont know how anyone can suggest this is a good thing for the monk class 20 pvp, call me old fashioned but id prefer the dps spec to have the strongest output in all forms of damage, not only but also particularly burst.
Im fine with current MW damage btw, the problem is WW having severely undertuned damage at low level in BFA, they actually did absurd damage in duels/world during legion but got screwed massively by the template numbers inside bgs, the dfference inside and outside a bg was hilariously massive, think rogue template v duel but worse. Then when BFA turfed the templates somehow WW got further fucked and ended up closer to the shit template numbers instead of how they were in duel/world
Im merely sharing the view that WW is in a worse state then the general consensus in this thread is suggesting. I did indeed play 29 fury before the bracket seperation happened. After 8.2 ive exclusively played 59s Not sure how that makes me a hypotcrite though? I just found it humurous for someone to say MW is fine.good while themselves playing

Yeah i find it really fun to play as well. I thkink part of that is being completely free from any FOTM guilt which always seems to pop up regardless of how deep you bury it. Its liberating... until your tolerance quota for unwinnable 1v1 situations get filled and you bench it for another month or two

they're +3 outside yes but I said they scale to 6 in bgs
ah yes, you prefer massive retard fotm damage. thats cool and all
damage isn't the only thing that makes twinks fun, actually imo the more damage you do the more boring a game will be. damage was one of the least emphasized points in my original post because i'm aware that WW doesn't do amazing damage (although as someone whos had the chance to play once recently I believe it is better than most people are lead on to believe.) but god damn they are utility monsters, seriously, disable is fucking king
yeah actually before I posted anything the general consensus in this thread was that it was basically dogshit so idk what you're on ab (you could argue that you hadn't posted yet I guess but like your post was made before mine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
you were all like "lmao windwalker is good says the dude with a warrior in his sig" when you're literally the dude who played a 29 fury warrior whos saying its bad, same shit cept you're saying its bad and chops was saying it was good. maybe hypocrite was the wrong word to use here but I just found that funny
