So far, I’ve been loving windwalker monk. It’s been tons of fun, and i’m looking forward to season 2 of TWW. Definitely a learning curve, but I’m trying my best. Most fun I had in a while on retail.
Just wanted to come here and say that.

Glad to hear you like. I’m still debating between my long time main Havoc DH or my WW.
Honestly, i had the same debate. I would give ww monk a try. I have been pleasantly surprised how fun it is. It has a nice rhythm to get into, but also is flexable enough to adapt to different situations. And honestly while demon hunter uses choas magic and demon powers.
Monk just strolls in notices all the other classes using powers, weapons, magics. Monk just shrugs, walks up to the dragon and punches him repeadtly in the face…
Takes a swig of his brew, kicks the dragon for good measure and walks back…
Now tell me who is really a hero class ? Lol

Monk is my new main too. The combat just feels right, not weird at all. Offensive, defensive and healing spells just flow throughout the rotation I should have rolled one a long time ago.

ive been so nervous to try monk, i think i’ll make one as the dps spec, is the rotation super hard to figure out or it just makes sense?
It’s sort of rhythmic. The mastery means each ability shouldn’t be used sequentially. They need to be alternated.
Once you figure out each of the abilities it ends up feeling like a bit of a dance. It’s a good time, not terribly difficult to understand, but there’s plenty you can do to optimize and play well.

Picked up my monk for the first time this expansion and wish I had done it sooner. absolutely love it.
Initially it seems like they have ALOT of keybinds but it actually doesn’t play like it does for some reason, I don’t really know how to explain it, your bars are full but, you use everything and don’t really notice that you are pressing alot. It’s very weird to start with.
When I first picked it up, for some reason I just couldn’t seem to remember to press Celestial Conduit or Touch of Karma, I have no idea why, they just didn’t compute in my brain. After soem practice they have and honestly, usually if I had to add 2 more buttons to my class I’d be struggling with binds etc but it’s actually fine.
Monk feels good, yet able to flex into any situation and do well with it’s CDs.
I don’t know how much help that might be, but, for me Monk is by far the best class I’ve played (I’ve played every class btw).

No disrespect to Death Knights but Monks are the real Killing Machines.
i just hope they don’t end up making conduit of the celestials mandatory.
i enjoy shadopan a lot more heh
This is my first time giving it a real go and I’m glad I did. Having a blast.
I use to too, but the CDR with wind strike is actually kind of a fun new playstyle but i am getting a little tired babysitting by bars seeing when all my abilities are ready to line up again.
I hadn’t considered the cdr … the little floating meditation is interesting and very powerful on ST. Though I don’t love interrupting my rotation … and it looks weird to stop and float mid combat … the sotwl cdr has interesting possibilities. Slicing winds on a 7.5s cooldown, rsk on a 3s cd, sotwl on 7.5 seconds … for 8s. You could pack a few whoppers in there!
Fof, Sotwl, rsk, slicing winds, WDP, rsk, sotwl … May need some tps mixed In there but still!

I thought of general grevious holding a lightsaber and saying “another for my collection,” except it’s Emporer ShaHoa adding players to his pet collection. Welcome to the best class in the game…well…don’t take that literally…no, PLEASE, COME BACK. /joke Hope you’re having fun, monk is unique if not good.
