WW nerf predictions

Pretty sure WW monk beat all those classes you mentioned in PvE. Not sure about PvP but in PvE, WW monks are currently beating a lot of DPS. Quite well I might add.

Fist will get nerfed, channeling a stun with strong burst that can’t be interrupted is going to get smacked. Or blizzard is going to cave and make physical skills being affected by interrupts in pvp.

Are you sure we’re playing the same xpac? Also, this is hilarious coming from a shaman for several different reasons.

Fist of fury is actually weaker than our other moves atm, it also does not stun.

Dude there is a huge problem with The Walking Dead.

My entire power budget is relegated to the fact that the only thing WW brings to the table is damage.
We both suffer.
I do absolutely no damage because it’s all relegated to you, and you have no utility because you’re so synergistic with chains of ice and death grip.

Turbo Fists needs re-thought. It’s a high uptime on 100% parry. Given its use against multiple targets, either the parry chance needs reduced to 50% or the effect should be redesigned as an absorb.

Outside of that, the spec seems ok and other classes/specs should be looked at for PvP talent buffs to bring them up to snuff in arena.

Not enough monk players for monks to get nerfed.

WW is the sqishiest of all melee dps specs. No need for a nerf.

Also one of the most mobile, especially on closed or z-axis maps.

Aye. Monks will most likely receive nerfs on more then just WW. The amount of hps a mist weaver can put out is staggering along with the WW component and when the tank specs are the dominant spec for all mythic and raiding it puts the monk at the top of the meta pack. With monks being the fotm along with rogues it is the largest target at the moment.

careful you dont get crucified. Your calling a spec people are quitting the game over too strong lmfao

MW is the worst healing spec in the game right now. Where are you getting this information?

How is Monk a FOTM? It’s the the number one most unplayed class in the game. Monk has such a skill gap (with a side of lure) that players tend to stray away from.

Is this supposed to be meaningful? WW is only in 1st place when you parse by 90th percentile. They aren’t in 1st in a single other percentile. Lol

WW is the 5th highest represented dps spec in pvp 2400+.

Top 100 US right now 8:49am 12/30
21 priests
15 paladins
12 druid
11 mage
11 shaman
10 warrior
7 rogue
6 monk
3 hunters
2 warlocks
1dk
1dh

But yeah nerf monks I guess.

tbf the priests paladins and shamans are likely healers

The monks are likely all WW. Which, in 8.3, most were MW because that’s what the pros were doing (and many other players were trying to emulate).

If anything, that should be the conversation–spec-by-spec performance discrepancy within the same class. E.g. why is Frost Mage so far underperforming fire and arcane when they aren’t really even well represented in Arena current version? Is it a lack of discussion within Blizzard?

There’s more shadow priests over 2400 than ww and theres more disc than both

Blizz will be blizz when it comes to WW monks. throw them a small flat % damage buff instead of fixing core issues with the spec or bugs that have been around for years.

and then hotfix bugs that give them some amazing quality of life changes in 20 minutes and then nerf them for good measure.
