You have one set of 450 Azerite armor. You want to quest, but questing as a mistweaver monk is simply horrible versus druid healers, shammy healers, and disc priest healers, for example. So you either die and struggle through and have a horrible time, you just forget about questing because it is bad enough you have to grind, but add to that a nightmare and daily headaches to boot, or you swap your azerite traits in and out every day. Well, then. Enough said.
I just swap to WW to get world quest/island stuff done. I do not swap my azerite traits. It does suck we gotta swap to WW cause I really do not enjoy that spec but it is much faster to get that kinda stuff done.
Honestly I have a whole set of passive heroic azerite gear that I got from raid/failed residuum rolls that I put towards a questing set. There are a few solid azerite traits for MWs that help with our damage. You also want to pull stats out of mastery and go with crit/vers like our raid stats, as they help put out the most damage. I think I can average like 15-18k easily on open world ST? And double that with AoE.
I have no issue questing, been doing quests solely as MW since wod. Using the mechagon trinket with cyclotronic on it is really helpful. Also focused thunder is nice for triple RSK. I also have a few heroic pieces with sunrise technique. Bottom line, get some azerite traits for dmg and the trinket and punch card from mechagon.

Thanks for your replies. It’s not the end of the world. Another thing to do is just do the bare minimum for the highest payoff for your time. Like just doing the four world quest for big rep, etc etc. A bit of a bummer though that mistweaver monks seem so fragile and their damage kind of bites. Anyhow, thanks for your solutions and food for thought.
I have around 440 gear set to MW and I can do the dailies without issue. Renewing mist and maybe jade statue on me if Inwant to take on a grouo of 5 or more. It takes awhile but spinning kick spam and my health never drops. I sometimes spec to WW, without shifting azerite traits, to make it go faster in some fights.
Turn on warmode get way of the crane. Be fine. Mw works just fine out there. Make sure you are tiger palmingĂ—3 before you black out kick and rising sun kick is on cd before you bok.
