I want to get back into mistweaver a bit, but the melee healer thing kinda freaks me out and causes me to fumble around on the keyboard between the melee abilites and in crisis the healing abilites. How do you recommend the bars being setup? I have the main bar with the melee attacks and on my Naga mouse I have the healing spells so I can swap between them if needed. Is there a better way? Anything super basic I should know? Also is there a build where I can JUST heal? No fighting, just purely heal. Thanks in advance.
Firstly, you need to have the fistweaving talent build.
Make sure to maintain Jafefire Storm buff or your fistweaving won’t work.
You need to use weakaura / CD manager to check the buff.
In low key M+, normally spam tiger palmx2, blackout kick, rising sun kick on CD will do the healing automatically.
In high key with 2pc (don need 4 pc):
before any big aoe damage,
cast 2 enveloping mist on 2 diff players and then just spam tiger palm will surely heal thru all aoe damage. If someone health too low, vivify / life cocoon on that person.
At any time, make sure one of the player in your group have enveloping mist and do your normal dps rotation (tiger palmx2, blackout kick and rising sun kick on CD), normally it will heal thru most damage.
When there is really big aoe damage, cast Chi Ji. Do basic dps rotation will heal thru most aoe damage. The talent Jade Bond is long time aoe damage esp for Priory of the Sacred Flame, Gift of Celestial is picked normally.
Make use of Thunder Focus Tea:
easy way:
cast Thunder focus tea with Enveloping mist (instant cast) on player.
Use Thunder focus tea, will get 1 stack of Jade Empowerment.
Use Thunder focus teax2, will get 2 stack of Jade Empowerment.
Save Jade Empowerment for big aoe damage by casting Crackling Jade Lightning on any mobs.

Currently, Mistweaver is MAINLY built for fistweaving. Cast weaving is useless in high key. the tier set is mainly for fistweaving. Midnight expansion will have distinct 2 playstyle - Cast weaving or fistweaving.
Thank you. I really appreciate your help.
It’ll be lucky to have even a single viable M+ spec at this point, 2 is laughably naive.

You can just play it more as a caster build and be fine for where the masses play mythic+ (12s and under) if you’re not a fan of melee to heal.
Caster build is better for raids too.
You can definitely play caster in m+, don’t listen to people that haven’t even tried it. I’m doing keys super casually with a couple of guildies and i’ve healed +16s and +15s without any issue.
This is the build i use, unfortunately you kinda have to take Jadefire Teachings because lightning is busted but most of the time you channel and cast to do your healing - C4QAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAghFbjlhF2mZmxGWWWmNmNLzyyyMzyCjpZmZgZYGGMbmZGmNm5BYWMBAAAAABYxyssMbzMTAAwGA
Refreshment is kinda of a meme but with conduit you can spam it and it gets a lot of value.

What’s your monks name if you don’t mind me asking. Would love to check out your rio page. Not going into melee at all but casually doing 15s and 16s is impressive so I’d love to check your character out.
