It would be nice if every 2s comp I played against wasn’t ww hpal at some point in SL. Please nerf ww it is absurdly overtuned. Who thought it would be balanced to give them a no cd fist of fury with op dmg & 100% parry lol. The only true nobrain class in SL.

My main is a Monk. But I’m not competitive enough to give you any meaningful information.
I will say two things: Monks scale horrifically, so they will likely be naturally “nerfed” as SL goes on, and; Monks are the least played class in the game.
You wouldn’t slap starving little Johnny because he got an extra serving of mashed potatoes for one meal, would you?

You woulda loved oldschool tigereye brew and chi torpedoes into a fist of fury that re stunned every hit.
Can you explain how fist of fury currently has no cooldown?
Or do you just mean how WoO makes it reset faster?

I knew this was a PVP thread. lel
WW monks get nerfed with every patch that introduces higher ilvl gear with more secondary stats so don’t worry they’ll be crap again eventually.
A class being played the least doesn’t mean representation isn’t good and that the capabilites of it are somehow irrelevant. The OP is discussing 2’s, so we’ll use that bracket.
Above 2k+, windwalker monks make up 8% of the top represented 15 specs, totaling 796 participants and making them the 4th top represented spec above 2k+. That’s pretty damn good.
It’s not about slapping Johnny because he got one extra serving of mashed potatoes. It’s about Johnny beating the crap out of everyone on the line for months and months and being unstoppable for his chicken pot pie. Windwalker doesn’t need to have a bat brought to the kneecaps, but it should be reigned in to be less in outer space within arena. Blizzard constantly makes adjustments to PvP only. They should do that here.
Holy paladin is in the same vein, and has been nerfed here and there. Windwalker just needs to have some aspects of its kit addressed to make it feel less oppressive.

Good points, Shadina!
Windwalkers are generally good at the beginning of the expansion then fall off a cliff later on.
Let them have this time in the sun.

I swear every time I see a nerf WW post there is no doubt a disc priest made it
WW monks just smash disc priests and their are like one of the two classes that actually put our pressure with out stacking cooldowns
WW monks just have the joy of cooldown stacking, actual pressure outside of cooldowns and an MS, thus making them the bane of healers
WW is probably the most boring, redundant spec in the entire game. Leave it alone lol.
If anyone wants to play a monk and have loads of fun. Play a KT or MT. Lots of fun. Stop with the nerfs.
Think large man flying through the air with dragon kick.
I’d say we should let them have their time in the sun.

Ret Paladins would like a word with you.
WW is pretty easy to shut down if you know what you are doing.
is that a threat? > : (
Because pvp doesn’t matter
Explain instead of the generic, “if you know what you are doing” argument
