New Dance of the Wind for PVP?

Classes Monk

Was wondering on thoughts about this talent update with 10.2.5, for PVP.

  • Dance of the Wind has been redesigned – Your dodge chance is increased by 10% and an additional 10% every 4 seconds until you dodge an attack.

Does this help with things like rogue openers? Wasn’t sure if you can dodge things like sap, blind, sap, or kidney.

I don’t think it will help too much. Cheap shot cannot be dodged. So if the healer is CC’d and the rogue opens on you, you’re going to be getting cooked still. Plus you also lose dampen harm.

originally i thought this talent was pretty bad for mw. the idea that something like an auto attack would proc it rending it useless, came to mind.

but since then i’ve played around with the talent, testing n such, and found that it can dodge things like bash, leg sweep, and kidney shot. actually as i am typing this i just got done dueling a hunter for fun and he popped trueshot etc, lined up an aimed shot, and i just dodged it. so at first glance, it didn’t seem that good, but i had a match earlier where a druid tried to bash cyclone me, i dodged the bash, and kicked the cyclone. the more i see it get value the more impressed i am by the talent, without it feeling overpowered because its essentially just rng and/or the enemy not ensuring that they proc it prior to attempting an important physical attack; similar to a totem/banner.

obviously its not reliable, but to say that in the short time i’ve had it there has been no massive value; would be to minimize its contribution.

i think its a good talent. i will continue to play it! make more fun talents like this!
