Id add one detail to help beginners. Fortifying Brew increases your Maximum Health. Using that in conjunction with your Touch of Death increases its damage significantly.
Great Video! I recently started playing WoW for the first time and WW Monk was the class I chose. I love the variety of spells and the big aoe’s! Your video helped a lot thanks :)
Dude um Back after 8 years and start playing monk. And this is exactly what i need for! Ty so much cant wait for a detailed guide. You won one subscriber. Simple and humble guide. Gj
I love this! Thank you for leaving the comment - means a lot! If ya have any other questions, don't hesitate to swing by the stream - twitch.tv/Heartbreaker_TV
Just got back into wow haven’t played sense I was a teenager decided to try out monk I’ve been loving it. Thanks for this guide I didn’t know a lot of this.
Thanks for the basics break down. Some great tips and questions answered. I have watch several videos and this is by far the best WW Monk video. Monk is fun!
I swear I was the enhancement shaman you played with lolol. Great video watched it to decide if I should start a monk. Trying new classes this expansion and really liking them all!
I would recommend to always run "Dif Magic" and "Dampen Harm". Just drop "Escape from Reality" for it. I haven´t heard a single solid argument why you would ever not take another %dmg reduction instead of a self heal increase. xD
Most people would probably select one of the popular weakauras for monks, I, however, choose to forgo one for now. I don't use anything SPECIFICALLY for the Monk currently. That may change once the season starts.
Hello, congratulations for the videos, very useful, but I have a question, can you recommend a class where I don't have to press too many keys to make a good dps? ty ^^
Thanks for watching! Beastmaster Hunter, Havoc Demon Hunter, and Demonology Warlock are all options that are a little simpler mechanically. Also worth checking out the Devastation Evoker perhaps.
The build on icyveins uses bonedust brew. Any reasoning behind you not taking it? Trying to get into my monk and just sorting through all the different builds I see
I've actually been using BDB a lot lately! Builds will change depending on the content...so in M+ I run it more now, in some heavier AoE fights I use it more, but in single target I most likely remove it.
@@jeffrafen it’s a big cool down, so it’s normally part of the opener. And then used on cool down with the caveat that you want to try to sync it up with your other big hitters best you can
I'm also squishy. I've talented into all 4 defensive cooldowns (dampen harm, touch of karma, diffuse magic, and fortifying brew) and it just is the way it is.
I struggled with surviving too, a friend of mine told me just to be more proactive with my defensives. As such that they are not reactive, you activate them to the best of your ability before dmg comes in.
Hi Level Up, I still cant decide between ww monk and balance druid. Which class you would say is easier to play and a better pick for raid and M+? Also higher keys. Would you say melee is generally more difficult to play in both scenarios than a range dps? Would love a helpful advice so I can finally start focussing on only one main :/ Greetings.
Melee is DEFINITELY more difficult. I find it more fun / interactive as there's less downtime playing a Monk (lots of APM - actions per minute) and very fast paced. Ranged, however, don't have to worry about getting smacked as much or standing in all the bad stuff haha. I'm a big fan of super engaging gameplay which is why I enjoy the WW Monk so much.
Hi, I'm quiete new windwalker and I have one question, so many times when I'm trying to not lose a combo stack I don't have any button to push 😂 Tiger Palm without energy, CDs on harm also, then what I have to use, Spinning crane kick even he is out of the proc?
Yep, just use what’s available. Mastery also makes you do more damage if it’s not the same. So for me it totals about 30% more damage. I use spinning crane kick unproc’d plenty if I need to.
Don't press any attacks if it has to be the same thing twice your better of pressing expel harm to build combo points so do you have enough to keep combo strikes going. I also run chi burst and if expels on cd and I'm risking losing como strikes and wasting globals waiting I just press chi burst but 99% of time expel harm is rdy when those moments come
Hey! Great video! Do you have any videos that go over how to stay alive? I can burst hard but die instantly, even at I'll 380. I'm missing some sort of survival mechanic. I'm talking even on basic mobs.
We're definitely squishy! You need to use your defensive cooldowns proactively vs. reactively a lot of the time. If you know something is coming or there's a lot of mobs cleaving your way, pop touch of karma or fortifying brew or dampen harm, etc. A lot of my builds run all 4 defensives (the 3 I mentioned + diffuse magic) just to be safe. It helps a lot. Then you just have to do your absolute best to avoid any puddles, etc.
I'm using ElvUI - I'd need to give you a pretty lengthy profile code though. If you swing by my stream or discord and let me know I can DM/whisper you that once you download ElvUI.
Because mastery only increase the monk abilitys dmg, while versa increase your dmg and it also decreases your dmg taken while also increasing the dmg you deal with most trinkets
WA for what? All my UI and stuff is using ElvUI and the combat text is Nameplater SCT (scrolling combat text) that does that. I also used Flame's (from @MarcelianOnline ) plater and followed his instructions on making the combat text the way I have it. The link to his plater is here: jpst.it/31Adj - the video is here: ua-cam.com/video/QK0RYBGAMwc/v-deo.html
wooow wait dude what is the addon that is causing the damage numbers to have the ability next to it? Looks so much sleaker than wow's floating combat text. The plater is insane too. I'm using Naowh's plater but yours might be nicer

Sorry you feel that way. Over 77,000 people have viewed this video and many have found it helpful as can be seen by the comments. You should also realize it very specifically states "Winderwalker Monk for dummies" in the thumbnail and I state I'm sharing the basics.
Sorry you feel that way. It's "Windwalker Monk for Dummies" - Just look at the thumbnail. It's a starting point that covers some of the basics. Multiple people in these comments have thanked me because they're now doing better in their dungeon runs.

This is good! I wonder if fortifying Brew is off gcd. If it is then it’d be a badass macro!
Great call!
this right here is a good tip.

I doubled my damage just watching the first two minutes of your video. I can't wait to watch the rest, thanks!

@@LevelUpmmo honestly don’t remember but I think it was a M0. Have Fun!!
@@prestononeil8767 Was Academy haha. But thank you!
This was the best video! Thanks so much for the explanation.
I have not played since Legion and needed this video! Subbed!
Thanks so much! Happy to hear it :) Feel free to pop any questions you have here or on my stream twitch.tv/HeartBreaker_TV
How many targets before you should start prioritising the use of a spinning crane kick?
I'd say 3+ SCK. 4-5 for sure.
Your graphics look awesome! Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching! Do you mean the in-game graphics? haha. Is that not what they normally look like? :p
I would recommend to always run "Dif Magic" and "Dampen Harm". Just drop "Escape from Reality" for it.
I haven´t heard a single solid argument why you would ever not take another %dmg reduction instead of a self heal increase. xD
Solid point! Will have to test that idea
how do you only have 3k subs? your'e content is good keep up the good work sir!
Thanks so much! Really started pushing the MMO content at the end of September and I’m up about 850 subs since. Will hopefully keep goin’!
Thank you brother!
My pleasure!
This was great information, thank you!
No problem! :) glad it was helpful!
Everywhere I look says a different stat priority. Haster is always either first or last.
This is from Dragonflight Season 1.
Thx, great video !
Thank you for watching!
Enjoyed. Useful overview, would love to see a detailed guide from you 👍
Thanks! Will definitely be considering it :)
What are the best add-ons for windwalker monks? I'm new to the windwalker monk build
Most people would probably select one of the popular weakauras for monks, I, however, choose to forgo one for now. I don't use anything SPECIFICALLY for the Monk currently. That may change once the season starts.

@Level Up MMO thanks for the reply. One more question then, where does BDB fall in your rotation priority list?
@@jeffrafen it’s a big cool down, so it’s normally part of the opener. And then used on cool down with the caveat that you want to try to sync it up with your other big hitters best you can
@@LevelUpmmo thank you very much
I've never placed below #1 DPS, even when a Fury was 20 ilvls above me. I came here to understand survivability, I feel squishy
I'm also squishy. I've talented into all 4 defensive cooldowns (dampen harm, touch of karma, diffuse magic, and fortifying brew) and it just is the way it is.
I struggled with surviving too, a friend of mine told me just to be more proactive with my defensives. As such that they are not reactive, you activate them to the best of your ability before dmg comes in.
The burn is real.. "Topped every dps chart"
Gotta give the people what they want!
Just wish they'd buff chi burst. It should be reworked as a finisher/chi dump ability.

what addon do you use to get your action bar to look like that?
I'm using ElvUI
@@LevelUpmmo thx
Do you have a link that we can copy and paste into ElvUI? Looks clean!
Interesting fellow monk
Thanks!
What nameplate profile are you using? Thanks!
I believe I'm running Pixel Perfect's updated Nameplates. If that's not right I can try to figure it out for ya later :)
@@LevelUpmmo Thanks I'll take a look!

@@LevelUpmmo thanks for your reply! I’ll be sure to do that :)
When choosing the talent build, I follow it all the way through but don’t have enough points to get them all
Are you max level (70)?
Why is versatility best stat when Mastery gives more %dmg per stat point ? someone explain this to me
Because mastery only increase the monk abilitys dmg, while versa increase your dmg and it also decreases your dmg taken while also increasing the dmg you deal with most trinkets
i think u forgot the import link from wowhead
Woops! Sorry - adding it to the description right now!
@@LevelUpmmo great guide btw im now the top dps im most mythic dungeons looking forward to the in depth guide

im not a dummy
WELP
monk needs a guide?
Why wouldn’t it?
During a guide, you should slow down and show each ability.
Good feedback. I tend to talk a bit fast.
he said nothing

Monks easy. You basically have 2 punches and 2 kicks
To each their own.
dont care
uhh lol thanks for the engagement?
Sorry for hate, but this must be the most useless guide about monk I have ever seen. U been toping dmg in m0? Wow so cool...
