Can’t believe there weren’t more MW buffs released today. The spec needs help.
The devs simply have their hands full for 9.0.5
Nothing is going to happen, PTR changes is the best we’re going to get
We have to accept we are fine as it is or reroll
More mana buffs lol, maybe if they keep it up we can die in a stun with 100% mana.
Really hope they give us some utility or change the spec a little to fix some fundamental issues it has.
Fortifying brew buff, let us cast something while stunned, soothing mist 0.5 sec gcd would all be great. Would also be great if they free up some of our PvP talents like make refreshing breeze a passive ability in PvP.
Clouded focus buff is nice for 2s but needing all those gcds to use it properly and no options in a stun still sucks.
Glad they are introducing small buffs just hope they don’t stop.

I don’t mind them not giving us the ability to cast anything while stunned…our playstyle involves predicting and using abilities beforehand…eg we can ROP/Incap/Port away when we see the enemy moving in to stun.
However because of that, they should revert Fortifying Brew back to a 1.5 min CD and buff it back to 20%/20%…this way we can ‘pre-wall’ anticipated goes more often. It’s still a high skill cap to pull off, but 3 min CD is way too punishing.
Soothing Mist should absolutely be a 0.5 sec GCD as well I agree. We’d still be susceptible to kicks but would help us get a quick Enveloping Mist off.
Thirdly, a buff to all our damaging abilities would be nice too. MW’s do next to no damage. Our abilities are weak and all are melee outside the weak Jade Lightning. It is too risky right now as a MW to do any meaningful melee damage. All other healers can do damage from range…including the other ‘melee’ healer in HPals who can Judgement/Holy Shock/Hammer of Wrath from distance and they hit hard.

meh… wall needs to be 1.5 and usable in stuns.
I agree with soothing being 0.5 gcd
I personally don’t care about damage. I like playing mw passively, utilize lightning to help my dps but staying super far away from everything.
One thing I think might be helpful is cacoon change. I haven’t gone over what the numbers would be like, but I feel the BFA change because we had such large health pools might be making it a poor CD. I’ve literally seen cocoon get erased immediately.
BruceTea is still sad.
Hopefully we will see MW monks become viable in the next season or two 
Fellow MWs, i posted a couple suggestion on PTR forums if you guys would like to chime in

We still need something changed with Soothing Mist. It’s just kick-bait and makes us super venerable. Being that we don’t have any solid defensives - especially any usable while stunned - we are too easy to kill.

I saw THREE actual mistweaver monks this week doing PvP.
I thought they got lost on the way to somewhere else.

We healers of all classes need to band together and support all other healers, instead of trying to nerf one of the only viable ones right now. They need to nerf all damage or buff all healers outside of disc/hpal.
These have been my thoughts lately, too. Hpals seem overpowered next to other healers, but they’re the only ones with solid viability lately. They still lose, right? It’s not like they’re gods that the DPS can never kill. They’re certainly hard to kill, and it’s hard to kill their teammates, but do we really want all healers brought down to a frustrating level of feeling like you can’t save your team or your self? Of being better off playing a hybrid?

Uh… bump. Still need to be able to use Fort Brew while stunned and Soothing Mist while moving (at the least).

I kinda want the spec to go full on fistweaving, that’s the only time I get any kind bang for my heals. The amount of heals and mana you gotta do to sustain same kind healing like other healers is too much.
Still waiting for blizzard to make mistweavers playable in pvp…

Being able to move while channeling soothing mist wouldn’t be good for the game.
Being able to use fort brew while stunned is a reasonable request or bringing the cd down to 1.5 mins allowing us to pre wall more often.
