Why is nobody talking about WW monks?

Seriously.

Why?

Stupid amount of damage and sustain. Crazy mobility and great defensives.

I see everyone QQing about rets (which do need some adjustment to their healing) but what about WW monks?

While I was leveling my alt through BGs in 50-59, I saw about 5-6 windwalkers in each game (10 vs 10 man format). I was also watching Cdew’s stream today, he fought 5 windwalkers in a row around 2500 rating, which I thought was funny.

Personally, I think WW needs a tone down on their sustain damage, and same with warriors. Their sustain damage is really bonkers, and largely promoting mongo playstyles which I’m not a fan of. With this case, it’s not just the top 100 they’re seeing big representation, but in all the ratings. I also highly suspect FOTM rogues are rerolling WW also.

ya they’re pretty insane. s tier mobility dmg and utility on top of an ms

feels really obnoxious when you’re playing a against a ww who’s spam cucking you with all their peels while simultaneously railing you/your partner

WW’s damage is MUCH higher than Warriors at this point.

Mobility, Damage, healing and tons of CC

Ring of Peace
Incap
Disarm
Stun

I can hardly do anything. Right now Hybrid DPS / Heals is just a giant uphill battle for any pure dps…especially as neutered specs like Sin rogue.

This is ironic. I think today alone I’ve seen at least 4 posts with similar phrasing. People are talking about WW monks.

Does rising sun kick work as the triple judgement in one ability because I was rising sun kicked for 5.6k, 5.5k, 5.6k, on the same global from a ww monk being nearly 17k damage?

that’s their cd storm earth and fire. it makes 3 clones that do 45% of the monks normal dmg each

conduit that makes your mirrors do more dmg when all on same target

disarm
rop
tigers lust
spammable triple dr root

that’s not even including incap sweep or their off healing which i didn’t include cuz if they’re sweeping or incapping defensively they’re sacrificing pressure for peeling. although you could argue that the tradeoff is pretty trivial currently with the amount of dmg they do

Less team utility and wayyyyyy less survivability.
