Best Enchants, Gems and Consumables for Mistweaver Monk
Enchants for Mistweaver Monk in Mists of Pandaria are fairly straight forward. Most slots only have one option and for the slots that have multiple (like boots), we can just follow our Stat priority. The following are the best enchants for your Mistweaver:

Gems
Which gem you chose will depend largely on the balance of your other stats, and where you sit on certain breakpoints. QuestionablyEpic can be used to get a clearer picture of your stat weights.
Generally, your goal should be to reach the next closest (reasonable) Haste breakpoint, then swap to gemming for Crit.
Below is the list of which gem is best for each slot. Note that for your Meta gem, you should be
using Burning Primal Diamond, as it provides the highest throughput.
Gem Socket | Haste Needed | Haste Not Needed |
---|---|---|
Red | ![]() ![]() |
![]() ![]() |
Yellow | ![]() ![]() |
![]() ![]() |
Blue | ![]() ![]() |
![]() ![]() |
Consumables
The consumables listed below are recommended for maximum throughput. There are
spirit options available, but with how powerful Mana Tea is, we should
rarely, if ever need to make use of them.
Food
There are three versions of food available, each increasing in strength from the previous tier. As shown below, feasts are no longer the strongest version of the food buff, capping out at 275 (in this phase). This means to get the maximum benefit, you will need to carry around your own stacks of food.
- 300 Intellect:
Mogu Fish Stew,
Spiced Blossom Soup;
- 275 Intellect:
Braised Turtle,
Banquet of the Pot,
Great Banquet of the Pot;
- 250 Intellect:
Swirling Mist Soup.
Flasks and Potions
Flask of the Warm Sun
For potions your choices are between Intellect or Mana return. Most of the time it is a good idea to use your potion for Mana, but if you are confidant that you will not need the extra mana during the fight, then the extra throughput can be valuable when lined up with certain healing checks.
Potion of Focus — Starts a 10 second channel that will restore Mana every second until the duration is completed or you manually cancel the effect. These give significantly more Mana than an instant Mana potion at the cost of removing you from the fight for a short duration. However this also can be seen as a benefit since you "save" the Mana you regen naturally in that 10 seconds as well.
Master Mana Potion — This should only be used in emergency situations where you would not have time to channel a
Potion of Focus.
Potion of the Jade Serpent — Increases your Int by 4000 for 25 seconds. Should be used in lieu of a Mana pot if you have excess Mana.
