Greetings Everyone,
If it’s getting use to the removal of expel harm and chi wave until i get hero talents but the class for myself feels like it’s missing those 2 abilities when it comes to the rotation. I’m now having issues with maintaining hit combo and end up in a situation where i have no chi and hardly any energy and get stuck with having to use tiger palm twice or i have down time until i have enough energy to cast jade lightning to maintain hit combo.
pruning/passives made ww much worse feeling. they took a very unique playstyle and made it less skillful and less fun.
I do miss TP, EH, TP in the opener. But now you can TP into SEF because it gives two chi and you start with two chi.
Yeah Expel Harm for sure helped to keep your hit combo going and getting 1-chi in a pinch…
Ascension and Innear Peace feel kind of mandatory to get a decent flow going, other than I think things should smooth out more with higher levels of Haste… Remember we are Hastewalkers now.
Make sure you are using most of the recommended talents and have swapped over to as much haste as you can. Once you do that the rotation should feel a lot smoother.
When other abilities are on cooldown, you should alternate between tiger palm and blackout kick.
My monk isn’t gear (4th alt) but I hit the target dummy a bit and I wish I had much more haste.
An entire expansion of avoiding haste like the plague and now i need to stack it… I picked monk because it had so many buttons to press and it made it unique compared to other classes
I do that but because my haste is so low, alternating between those 2 abilities still leaves me with a significant down time, especially during long fights where the down time of slow energy regen and no chi.
I notice it more when i want to use WDP but don’t have enough chi to spend on fist and black out kick which leads to lost dps.
Unfortunately my issues with WW monk now is a stat that i don’t enough of right now and my muscle memory of what i use to do no longer applies to the current state of WW monk. My only ripe is having to cast Chi Burst, it wrecks my immersion but something i can get over
Druid forums are having a similar discussion. Seems Energy regen has been effected and it’s causing the classes that use it to feel weird.
