      Great video!
      You mean you left things out like Elusive Mist's change? - It sounds like a neat one. I am curious if the statue can keep it up and if it stacks when the target receives 2 soothing mist's.
      Oh and about the falling damage when landing on the water surface with water walking active - there is a small and neat trick to avoid that from happening: Turn the camera completely vertical (as much as possible) with the right mouse button (turning your character).
      This way I avoided some cheezy team kills from DKs when they did that more often lol.

    Great overview, can't wait to see more of the changes.
    Even as someone who loves the idea of the caster Mistweaver (I love how unique Soothing Mist is and would love to see a healer built around such as spell as its core) I am really happy about them moving towards this more Melee only focused tree (with some ranged/cast tools). It opens up so much more space for interesting melee options rather than a ~75% finished caster alternative that falls short of what I want and just eats up space in the tree for the melee style. It also means that, assuming this melee version works out as well as it looks, future changes might include moving the channeled cast style off of Mistweaver and into another new healer or spec in the future so it can get the same treatment. But that would have to be 12.0 or later at the earliest realistically.
    And both hero talent options look like they'd be fun which is more than I can say for a lot of other specs. Very positive things so far.

    • @Ysidoroh

    Overall, I'm happy with the changes. We'll have to see how tuning goes. I still would prefer more of a passive heal playstyle letting me deal dmg and heal for a portion of that. Maybe similar to Disc, but I've never actually played Disc. I was surprised to see a fair amount of these talents were passives! I was starting to worry about too many keybinds.

    Can i just say that it took me some times to understand how their general class design works overall until the end of DF's S2 and now that i can clearly see how their design approach work, how it maps to the game, and then seen all these changes, i can definitely saying that i see the spec evolving into something really really nice and with a lot of things that i liked to see (lots of which i send to blizz as feedback many times).
    Overall huge W, the only thing that concerns me is how Transcendence works and that you have to put it on an ally i have we have more agency of this and be able to chose either a location or an ally actively, unless their goad with the change about it was to prevent us doing the crazy stuff we can do with it.
    The one thing which included anyone though is and i want them to scale down this top % tuning, not "remove", just make it so it's more enjoyable for people who are not in that skill level (basically change the scaling to be more forgivable for lower bracket players).
    And i really hope they finally understand that, if they don't tie up rewards on interrupts and maybe defensives, people won't have enough incentive to learn how to use them and the same problems with who gets to be abused again the healer.

    24:38 ... having a class that through its own healing spek can create two types of action, be it meelee or range healing ... is way more cool than going more into one or the other direction... is range healing as it is in dragonflight now lost? not clear from your video. Meelee healing is very cluttered and if u also have lag spikes or other technical issues, ppls die :)) ... hope range healing will be kept in parallel and not scrapped ... really love the cast to instant hots on the target type of game play - its the only healing talent currently that can pump up any dying class, almosst instantly with no pre-prep - you only need to have full mana - this I can't find in any other class, and I've searched ... so please don't be biased as I'm sure your voice and others like you matter ;)

    Do you feel as though there is a contradiction in the development thought process when it comes to PvP? You're saying that it seems as though they're moving away from the caster playstyle and weighing more toward melee healing, however, they're giving all these awesome slow and kite abilities that make it seem as though (to quote you) "it's impossible to catch a monk in a PvP setting". How do those two tendencies factor in with each other, because if you're forced to go melee healer, why would you need such a robust kiting toolkit? And vice versa, why would it be hard to catch someone, who's in melee already?
    I'm thinking of getting back into the game, but haven't played in ages, so would like to get the feel of where they're going with mistweaver before I make the decision.
    Thanks for your analysis and informative video.

    I do hate that they keep focusing mw on fistweaving. The main reason i dont off heal with my monk is because MWer has a 1.5 sec gcd. Swap the mana for energy and drop the GCD to 1 second. It would make the spec more unique, and give it a little more challenge since you cant just spam heals then ask for an inervate.

      Dampen Harm was removed but replaced with a better version of Fort Brew, we lost EF which was not pressed in raid nor keys, the raid utility loss is valid but we still bring Mystic Touch, and Bounce Back and Save Them All still exist as 1 point talents.
      Classes are facing defensive (and buttons in general) pruning and MW is currently EXTREMELY tanky and needs some reeling in. There's been numerous changes and additions that shape up to be very promising for MW on release and has so much space for iteration throughout the expansion.

    Great video, as always. Thank you!
    Chi Harmony being a talent is the one thing I wanted the most and hoped they leaned into - I’m glad they did this. It’s going to be awesome.
    I was also hoping they would increase our melee range and possibly change our mastery even further. Which, I’m glad they modified the mastery, but I had hopes to take it in a different direction.

    I recently subscribed to your channel and I’m glad I did. I’ve been playing WOW since 2007 (started right after college so, yes, I’m older) and tried Mistweaver off and on throughout the years. My main is resto druid but I recently started playing Mistweaver more and more. I think my main will be Mistweaver in the next exp. They are a blast to play! They have never felt better. Anyways, thanks for the videos and keep up the great work!

    I *cannot* believe they removed Clouded Focus, I'm so hyped. Also, mastery procs on damage abilities? I'm gonna cry (even if it's still meh)
    Great video as always, thank you
