For heirloom purposes, the Dignified Headmaster's Charge is your best option.

If you're looking to get some heirlooms now to prepare, Preened leather items are best, though you can certainly get away with cloth gear at lower levels.įor weapons, monks can either dual wield fist weapons, swords, maces, and axes or use a two-handed polearm or staff. What stats and weapons should I be looking for? Similar to what restoration and balance druids wear, intellect leather is what mistweavers are designed to use. As it currently stands, DPS healing isn't required, but it provides a small additional boost to overall raid damage and raid healing - and it's also pretty fun, too. If things get tough, though, you'll want to switch to full-time healing. If you're fighting a large pack, use Spinning Crane Kick, which heals based on AoE damage. The rotations are pretty simple: Use Jab, Expel Harm, or one of your heals to generate chi, then spend it via Tiger Palm or Blackout Kick to get the Eminence healing. Eminence can currently be stacked twice if a Jade Serpent Statue is dropped, which provides enough healing for encounters with light damage. The most important of these is Eminence, which converts 50% of the monk's special ability damage into healing a nearby ally with the lowest health.

Chi can stack up to 4 (5 if talented) and powers some of the spec's stronger abilities and damage potential.ĭamage potential? What is this "melee healer" thing? While it's still heavily being tweaked, mistweavers have several passive abilities that allow them to convert damage into healing. Somewhat similar to holy paladin mechanics, however, is the addition of chi, which is generated by several different abilities. Mana works similarly to all other mana-based classes it regenerates at a constant rate, regenerates at half that rate in combat, and powers the majority of your healing abilities. How do mistweaver monks work? Mistweaver monks have two primary resources, mana and chi. What is a mistweaver monk? Monks have three role options: damage, tanking, and healing, of which mistweaver is the healing role. This goes double for mistweavers, since Ghostcrawler has already acknowledged that their healing is currently too high.

We'll have a full 101 guide that covers things like enchants, gems, and stats when Mists is released, but this will cover you until then. One caveat, though: Because this is still beta, things will likely change somewhat between now and live. We've covered windwalkers and brewmasters now we get to mistweavers.
