Windwalker Monk DPS Best Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — 12.0.5

This section specifically covers the optimal gems, enchants, food, and flasks to use for your character. To get a more detailed rundown of the different stats for Windwalker Monk, please visit our dedicated Stats page.

Many consumables, like enchants, gems, or potions, are available at multiple different ranks. If you are unable to afford the highest rank for any of them, you can safely choose a lower rank one instead, at the cost of some DPS.

You should use Indecipherable Eversong Diamond in one socket. Then, the rest of the sockets can be filled in based on what your character needs the most. I.e. if you already have a lot of Mastery and Crit on your Gear, you'll want more Haste, and vice versa. This will likely be some mix of:

• Haste/Critical Strike ( Flawless Deadly Peridot)
• Haste/Mastery ( Flawless Masterful Peridot)
• Mastery/Critical Strike ( Flawless Deadly Amethyst)
• Mastery/Haste ( Flawless Quick Amethyst)
• Critical Strike/Haste ( Flawless Quick Garnet)
• Critical Strike/Mastery ( Flawless Masterful Garnet)

The choice of gems is highly dependent on your gear. Haste, Critical Strike, or Mastery can easily be your highest simming stat depending on the current gear you are wearing, and as a result, the choice of gems and ring enchants can vary a lot. We highly recommend simming yourself to find out the best set of gems for your character specifically via Raidbots.

Consumables substantially increase the power of your character for a limited time. Any time you are challenging yourself with difficult content, it is advisable that you buff yourself with Flasks, Food, Potions, and Weapon Oils.

Flask of the Blood Knights should be a good choice for all content.

For all situations use Potion of Recklessness.

Silvermoon Health Potion should be used to heal yourself.

You should eat the Feasts to increase your Agility; Harandar Celebration.

While expensive, Void-Touched Augment Runes can also be used for a small amount of extra Agility. Consider keeping a few on hand for times when you need to eke out every bit of possible damage.

For all situations, use Thalassian Phoenix Oil.

Due to the Stamina scaling of Touch of Death and Touch of Karma, Forest Hunter's Armor Kit does provides the best DPS boost when added to your Legs.
