Monk: complete guide - tank, healing and wind

The monk appeared in Mists of Pandaria, but is also found on private servers and in builds for Legion/BfA. Its peculiarity is quick solutions and mobility.

Specializations

  • Brewmaster - a tank with “intoxication”: part of the damage is spread out over time, which you then clean off. The most interesting tanking mechanic in the game.
  • Mistweaver — healer with two modes: calm “foggy” and aggressive through attacks on enemies.
  • Windwalker — fighter: “White Tiger Fist”, “Xueli” copies, high mobility.

What's important

  • Energy and “chi” - watch your resources: the monk forgives a lot, but does not like downtime.
  • “Magic Tea” is your burst cooldown, spend it on damage pools.
  • “Damage Protection”/“Decoction” - active defense instead of passive armor.

PvP

Windwalker is one of the most mobile fighters, "Circular Strike" removes control from allies. Requires practice: a lot of cooldowns that need to be linked.

Suitable for

For those who have already played and want to try something different from the classic classes.
