Best Enchants, Gems and Consumables for Windwalker Monk in Midnight
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.
Gems for Windwalker Monk in Midnight
The choice of gems is highly dependent on your gear. Each of the four secondary stats 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.
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.
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)

Consumables for Windwalker Monks
Flasks and Potions
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.
Food
You should eat the Feasts to increase your Agility;
Harandar Celebration.
Augment Runes
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.
Weapon Enhancements
For all situations, use
Thalassian Phoenix Oil.
Armor Kits
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.
