Hey brother, just wanted to say that i started playing DF 2 weeks ago since i was a classic enjoyer and you are the reason i picked WW monk. Im having a blast! Cheers my guy.
I've been GRINDING trying to get numbers like you! Thankyou so much, these videos are making me alot better. After like 5 hours, I finally beat you 90 second number (only once) Thankyou!
In my old guide there is a section on my single target rotation. I can make a new one but dont have time to release it very soon! But if it is appreciated i will put some time for a single target aswell!
Hey mate so outside of serenity in standard AOE - is it preferable to send a tiger punch during the spinning crane channel then a blackout once the spin has stopped? I've noticed catching myself sending blackout while I'm spinning and then tiger punch once the spin has stopped. Is there a right or wrong answer here? Thanks for any feedback you might give and thankyou for the videos!
Hi mate! During Spinning Crane Kick Channel you can attack without cancelling the channel. So perferably you using Tiger Palm or something during the channel. Because ScK costs chi, i mostly use a Tiger Palm during my ScK! Hope this helps!
thanks for the video i am returned player i was playing monk with sef all the time sereneity feels weird to adjust, i have a question so tiger is 2min cd serenity 1.5 do u use serenity on cd or wait for tiger to come up and use them both ?
Ideally you want to use them at the same time. Since Tiger is based on how much dmg you deal, so a really good time to have serenity up. So in raids you always want to wait for tiger to come off cd and use it together. In m+ this rule is not always applied, since there could be certain packs that are pulled where youcreally need to use a cd while tiger is still on cd. So in m+ you can use it without tiger!
@@TheloniousWoW your description does not say anything about what "Font" your using. You are linking to how to change, and what plater profile your using. However what i am looking for is your "Font" on plater and chat/general UI information. It's a very specific font and i can't seem to locate it through any of your videos. A name for the font, would be truly appreciated. Thanks in advance :)
ilvl is key in m+ situation. If you have 2 489 1handers, they will probably be better than the fryrakk 2h. In raiding the 2h from Fyrakk sim's really well due to the dot it has on it.
Hello, I've been watching your videos for a while now and I would appreciate some clarification if possible. I've started playing monk two weeks now and the abilities and overall feel of the class is incredibly fun, however I found that Outside of Serenity it's quite annoying to try and aoe dps. It starts with fishing for the dance of chi-ji 300% dmg buff, but soon you run out of energy and have to full cast fist of fury because spamming out of serenity means you will sit for a few seconds energy starved otherwise. Is this normal? I mean, my dps overall is pretty good, but I still feel like im screwing stuff up constantly especially if I don't get lucky with the dance procs. Much appreciated
Hi! If you feel energy starved alot this might havr to do with your energy management. Outside of Serenity you prioritize not getting energy capped at all times. So a tiger palm or expel harm has higher prio than anything if you are about to cap on energy. Also, outside of serenity you always fully channel your FoF. Hope this helps. Else you can always send me a video i can review!
@@HSHAO64 Goodluck, let me know if i can help in any way! Oh p.s maybe your haste is a bit too high? This could impact your energy management a bit always.
@@TheloniousWoW sitting at around 44% crit, 24% mastery and verse. My haste is quite low as I focused mainly on crit verse, but I'm slowly starting to increase mastery to 30%ish to see how it goes while trying to maintain verse and crit.
@Thelonious Considering maining Monk now and into next patch. Is the lack of stat scaling with monk going into next patch a big deal as some make it out to be?
if you are looking to play the most meta dps melee class, you'll most likely be disappointed with monk. As of now I am not expecting Monk to become the new meta. scaling is one of the problems that is holding it back. But as of now rogues and DH will be a more likely pick to be meta.
@TheloniousWoW don't care about meta but still want to be relevant enough to get in some higher keys. I think monk stigma of scaling might be worse than actuality. Appreciate the response!
hello i have been watching a lots of videos looking for an answer and didnt foundt it. How do you manage to line up your 3 offensivs CDs in M+. I mean Bdb is 1min serenity is 1.5 and xuen is 2min when all 3 are available no problemo but after 1min you got your BdB up, and still 30sec on serenity and 1 min on xuen. Should we just use BdB "naked" and wait until serenity get lined up with xuen ? or use serenity on cd and get xuen with BdB every 2min no matter of serenity cd ?
Hi, thats a very tough question since there isn't a easy answer. You preferable want to make sure you use Xuen with another CD or trinket. In raids you want to wait with Serenity untill you have Xuen up, to make sure you can pair them up together. In m+ this is a bit different though, depending on your tank and what he pulls, you'll have to decide what cd you are going to use. And for which packs you want your CD to line up. This is the core of doing high dmg in m+. Understanding at what packs you can use your CD's. In general in M+, you don't necesarry have to wait for any CD to get back up, you can use them on CD. but again... it's kinda depends sometimes.. Hope this helps, T
hey bro. the stats weights are blowing my mind at the moment. everywhere they say, go Vers-> Crit , since then i'll go on Mastery->Vers but i'm under 35% Crit which feels a bit weird. Any suggestions?
Yo! Since Dragonflight Blizzard introduced diminishing returns on secondary stats. This means that after you have ALOT of a certain stat, it because less valuable. So it's good to balance out some mastery in your gear after you have a large amount of Crit/Vers. For raiding Vers/Crit is still the main 2 stats you want to go for. M+ situations, mastery is a alot better since the recent buffs. So depending if you play M+ or Raid it differs a but what you should go for. If you want to go for a nice combination of both. Go for crit/vers and have a healthy amount of mastery as a good third secondary stat!
Oh ofcourse sorry! You clip your FoF during serenity only. The reason for Single Target is that you want to use as many RSK as possbile during serenity and you only want to use FoF for the crit buff. In AoE situations you also clip your FoF during serenity because you want to increase your serenity uptime by casting as many spi-spenders as possbile (check talent: Drinking Horn Cover). Fulling channeling your FoF will be a DPS decrease!
No you shouldnt use any chi-generating abilities during serenity. My first ability after I use my serenity (and other cooldowns) is Strike of the Windlord.
Very important. Not only do you get a dps increase from hit combo, also your mastery requires you to cast a different ability! So try to never cast the same ability twice!
Can you make a written monk's guide please? I speak Spanish and it is very difficult for me to understand what you say even when translating it :(((((((((((((
You do not need many macro's. I use a few mouse-over macro's on detox, paralysis, interrupt and tiger's lust. And I have 1 macro with all my cooldowns (serenity, tiger & trinket)
@@stonerkebab9498 in perfect single target opener youd like to use your tiger first, than you tiger palm and than use serenity. However in most m+ situation you've already used your skyreach on the target to get mark of the crane stacks so the macro doesnt matter that much!
@@TheloniousWoW Last time I was playing wow was in season 1. Can I assume that rotation did not change much from then? Maybe for serenity but not with SEF 🤔
@@TheloniousWoWyeah I'm already looking forward to the hero talent trees👍🏼 it's been a while since we got to look at some of them and Alpha should start in 1-2 months so I'm curious when they're gonna release all of them finally😅
