In addition to the existing Wrist Hands enchants, Blacksmiths can apply Socket Bracer and Socket Gloves, and Engineers can apply Synapse Springs.

As a Windwalker Monk, it is essential to reach the Hit and Expertise soft caps of 7.5% each. However, at a reasonable gear level, these caps can typically be achieved through innate stats and reforging, without the need to socket pure Hit or Expertise gems. For this reason, these gems are not included in the recommendations below, except for hybrid Hit gems, which are still advised when they help meet socket bonuses or stat priorities efficiently.

Sockets	Gems
	Agile Primal Diamond or Capacitive Primal Diamond (better)
	Delicate Primordial Ruby / Perfect Delicate Pandarian Garnet or Delicate Serpent's Eye (Jewelcrafting)
	Adept Vermilion Onyx / Perfect Adept Tiger Opal or Fractured Serpent's Eye (Jewelcrafting) (until Patch 5.4) Deadly Vermilion Onyx / Perfect Deadly Tiger Opal or Smooth Serpent's Eye (Jewelcrafting) (after Patch 5.4)
	Glinting Imperial Amethyst / Perfect Glinting Roguestone or Rigid Serpent's Eye (Jewelcrafting)
	Engineering Gems: Rigid Tinker's Gear / Precise Tinker's Gear (Hit/Expertise) Fractured Tinker's Gear (Mastery) (Until Patch 5.4, then worse than Crit) Quick Tinker's Gear (Haste) Smooth Tinker's Gear (Crit)

Consumables provide temporary, but impactful bonuses to a Windwalker Monk's performance.
