Mistweaver Monk

Hey good! How are you doing, colleague? In this article we bring you the best talents for the Mistweaver Monk during leveling and at maximum level to unleash the potential of this specialization.

Centuries ago, when the pandaren suffered under the yoke of the mogu, it was the monks who brought hope to what seemed inevitably a bleak future.

Talents

In this section of the article I will bring you several ways to confront your enemies and different ways to develop encounters, be it massive targets or just single-target encounters. As always we advise you in all class guides, choose the ones you like the most or come close to your possibilities if a talent doesn't convince you.

-Talents in yellow: they can become the best depending on which fights, in this case, they are the best for single-objective encounters.
-Talents in blue: you can choose them in case you do not like the ones that appear in yellow, there will not be much difference in the DPS.
-Talents in green: these talents are the best to do much more damage in areas, that is, encounters with more than three objectives.

Level 15: Chi Burst
Level 30: Tiger's Wish
Level 45: Mana Tea
Level 60: OPTIONAL
Level 75: Elixir of Healing
Level 90: Summon Jade Serpent Statue
Level 100: Focused Thunder

lvl 15

wrap-in-the-mist: Increases the duration of Enveloping Mist by 1 sec and its healing bonus by 10%.
wave-of-chi: A wave of chi energy cuts through friend and foe alike. Deals (86.7% of ability power) p. Nature damage or heals (150% ability power). of health. Bounce up to 7 times off targets within 25 yards.
chi-blast: Launches a stream of chi energy forward with a range of 40 yds, dealing (412.5% ability power) damage. Nature damage to all enemies and heals (412.5% ability power). the monk and all the allies in his path.

chi-blast it is the best talent for this first branch since you can damage and heal at the same time but it requires good positioning.

wave-of-chi it is not a recommended talent.

wrap-in-the-mist It is a good option if we want to increase and maintain our healing over time.

lvl 30

haste: Reduces the cooldown of Roll by 5 sec and increases its maximum number of charges by 1.
chi-torpedo: Charge forward a long distance like a torpedo and increase your movement speed by 30% for 10 sec. Stacks up to 2 times.
tiger-wish: Increases the movement speed of a friendly target by 70% for 6 sec and removes all root and snare effects.

This branch of talents will have no major impact in combat. The choice will be determined by the match.

tiger-wish It can be a good option if we want to help our companions rooted or with reductions of the same effect.

chi-torpedo y haste they improve our mobility in different ways.

lvl 45

lifecycles: Enveloping Mist reduces the mana cost of your next Vivify by 25%, and Vivify reduces the mana cost of your next Enveloping Mist by 25%.
spirit-of-the-crane: Teachings of the Monastery causes each additional Dark Kick to restore 0.65% mana.
Mana tea: Reduces the mana cost of your spells by 50% for 12 sec.

I recommend Mana tea, as it helps you heal your allies considerably without noticing the large mana expenditure.

If, on the other hand, more direct healings are needed, you can opt for lifecyclesWhat it really does is the same in a different way, take care of your mana.

spirit-of-the-crane This talent can be useful in encounters where you have to bursar your healing and, later, you can have a short period of time in which no healings are needed.

lvl 60

Tiger Tail Sweep: Increases the range of Leg Sweep by 2 m and reduces its cooldown by 10 sec.
song-of-chi-ji: Creates a hypnotic fog cloud that moves slowly. Enemies touched by the mist fall asleep and are disoriented for 20 sec.
peace-ring: Forms a Ring of Peace at the target location for 8 sec. Enemies that enter will be kicked out of the ring.

This choice will not have great significance in combat.

Tiger Tail Sweep y peace-ring It can help us in tricky situations where we need the main target not to receive damage for a short period of time.

song-of-chi-ji It is a very effective talent in certain situations in which we need to jump a certain group of mobs.

lvl 75

Elixir of Healing: You drink a healing elixir, healing you for 15% of your maximum health.
blur-magic: Reduces magic damage you take by 60% for 6 sec and transfers all damaging magic effects currently active to their original caster, if possible.
Mitigate damage: Reduces all damage you take by 20% to 50% for 10 sec. The reduction increases the greater the attack.

Similar to the Windwalker Monk specialization, Elixir of Healing it would be a good option if, in this case, we did not have good healing in the group. However, it is not the most recommended option for this branch.

Blur magic He is a talent for PVP although he can serve us in some situations in PVE.

Mitigate damage It is, for me, the recommended talent for this branch since it will allow us to reduce the damage we receive in mechanics with devastating abilities in most bosses. Since we are going to eat the areas because we are made of cones ... why not reduce their damage?

lvl 90

summon-jade-dragon-statue: Summons a Jade Serpent statue at the targeted location. When you channel Comforting Mist, the statue will also begin to channel Comforting Mist onto your target, healing them for 16% ability power. every 0.8 s.
wind-of-jade-refreshing: Summons a tornado that swirls around you, healing for [(8.25% ability power) * 13]. health for 9 sec to up to 6 allies within 10 yards.
invoke-chi-ji-the-red-crane: Summons an effigy of Chi-Ji, the Red Crane, for 25 sec. Chi-Ji uses Crane Healing to heal (45% attack power) for damage. to close allies.

In this case, all three talents are quite viable. The recommendation for this talent branch is summon-jade-dragon-statue since it is a very prolonged extra healing in time.

For other types of activities such as dungeons or gangs, wind-of-jade-refreshing heal 6 allies around your location and invoke-chi-ji-the-red-crane heal the most injured allies.

lvl 100

thunder-focused: Thunder Focus Tea now empowers your next 2 spells.
fountain-well: For every 6 seconds that Essence Source is not on cooldown, you can channel your next Essence Source for an additional 1 second. Essence Fountain's healing over time duration is increased by 4 sec.
Rising mist: Rising Sun Kick Heals (15% Ability Power). all allies with your Renewing Mist, Enveloping Mist, or Essence Fountain, increasing the duration of those effects by 2 sec.

For this latest talent pick, thunder-focused It is the talent that I would choose since it enhances our next two spells and in a fight in which we need to bursar a healing, this talent can be our salvation. This rhyme is cool cantidubi.

Fountain well it is a good talent if we need to prolong the healing over time with good results.

Rising mist It is an offensive talent that will allow us to heal our allies while attacking the target. The usefulness of this talent is found in bosses where we have a break to attack the target. It can also be a good choice if we see that in an encounter we are persevering attacking the target for obvious reasons such as dead lives, without active mechanics ...

Practical tips, cd's and rotations

There is no specific way to play with a fog weaver monk, in general there is no rotation with the healers, as they are adapted to the battle. However I am going to give some general advice on skills and some special functions.

Renewing Mist: Main Spam Skill, always use when available.
- Tip: First of all, what we should do before starting the battle is to always keep Renewing Mist in the tank (preferably), so that the Inspiring Trance passive appears.
Effuse: Second spam ability, without cooldown and with one of the best passives, use it when our help is hardly needed, and preferably in combination with Thunder Focus Tea.
- Tip: With the new traits, it is necessary to use every possible one to create Sheilun Mists more often.
Vivify: Great small group heal, strengthened with Inspiring Trance passive.
- Tip: If we use it with Thunder Focus Tea and the legendary Eithas, Lunar Gliders of Eramas, each passive appears we will have a great free cure which will help maintain mana during long battles.
Enveloping Mist: Great personal heal, causes heals to increase by 40% to the target and leaves a HoT to heal them over time, in addition to a great initial heal.
- Tip: Main skill, its great mana cost means that several do not use it, however, having a short cast added to the benefits it brings, it is advisable to use it always. Used with Thunder Focus Tea, it becomes instantaneous, which is great for boosting a lot of health in a few seconds, in addition to the Mist Sheath talent.
Essence Source: Excellent AoE heal, somewhat low cooldown, can be used while on the move and benefits from Thunder Focus Tea, plus it doubled the Mastery: Mist Burst buff.
- Tip: If it is possible to use it when available, let's take advantage of the fact that it can be used on the move so that the tics hit the majority of colleagues. Can be used with Thunder Focus Tea to make the cast duration twice as fast.
Thunder Focus Tea: Ability that stimulates certain abilities, giving unique benefits.
- Tip: You have to know which skill to use at the right time. Let's remember that with the focused Thunder talent, we can use this ability twice before it goes into cooldown. If we need to save mana, we can spam with Vivify, in case we need more healing, with Enveloping Mist, although now it would be beneficial to use it with Effuse for the new traits.
Crisálida Vital: One of the best personal CD's of this specialization. Creates a large shield, activates Mist Wrap, and increases all HoT applied to it by 50%.
- Tip: Can be used as a damage mitigator or as a saving method after heavy damage. Try not to break the comforting mist to increase life progressively in this way.
Reanimation: Giant heal to the entire raid, it has two types of healings, first a huge initial heal, then a good heal over time.
- Tip: Huge heal that has a high cooldown. It must be used at key moments of the raid or when the Guild Master tells us. We can take advantage of the overhealing it generates to be able to use skills such as Essence of life or vivify and thus increase the effectiveness of healing.

Now let's talk about other abilities that may not be as essential as a healer but that are part of our show:

Transcendence and Transcendence: Transfer: It reduces the speed of nearby enemies and allows us to move from one point to another immediately, in addition to leaving that copy at the last point, it has a low cooldown and it is highly recommended to use it (dodge specific mechanics or in encounters PvP).
Spinning Crane Kick, Rising Sun Kick, Tiger Palm and Dark Kick: It will help us do a pretty decent dps, added to the passive ability Monastery Teachings and some talents such as Spirit of the Crane, Rising Thunder and Refreshing Jade Wind. They will help us in this gameplay format. It allows us to heal and do damage at the same time.
Fortifying Brew: Grants a large amount of mitigation, increasing if we choose to Blur Magic or Mitigate Damage.
