Mistweaver Monk Healing Gear and Best in Slot — Midnight Season 1
On this page, you will find the best gear and best in slot items for your Mistweaver Monk in World of Warcraft Midnight Season 1.
BiS Gear Guide for Mistweaver Monks
Because of the diverse nature of gear and the variability of item level due to things like the weekly cache, a true "best in slot" list is slippery. You should always be equipping items that will benefit you based on your stat weights. To acquire said weights, use WoW Analyzer. More on that can be found below.
Gearing up For Midnight
Upon reaching Level 90 in Midnight, you have 3 main options to start gearing your character: Dungeons and Raids, PvP such as Arena or Battlegrounds, and world systems like Renown with the four main Reputations.
Once you can get invited to Mythic dungeons, be sure to complete each one during your first week, then look to see if you can find groups for your preferred style of play, be that Mythic+ or Rated PvP.

FAQWhich Tier Set Pieces Do I Want?
Trinket Recommendations for Mistweaver Monk in Season 1
For healers like Mistweaver, trinkets that are often referred to as "stat sticks" are usually a very safe pick. Unlike DPS, where random procs are very rarely wasted, healers do not always have health bars to heal. A powerful proc can go totally unused if it does not line up with moments of extreme damage. Usually, a strong trinket for us will be an item that has static Intellect and a proc with a high uptime of either Haste or Critical Strike.

Best Crafted Items for Mistweaver Monk
Crafted items provide powerful bonus effects to gear called Embellishments. The effects can fairly radically increase the power of a particular item slot. Your character can have a maximum of two Embellishments. The cost of these Embellishments however, is that crafted gear cannot reach the same maximum item level as Myth track pieces, meaning usually you will want to put Embellishments on gear slots that has the lowest stat budget possible: wrists and cloaks. That way you get all the power of the Embellishment, while minimizing the stat loss from the items. Alternatively, you can opt use one of your Embellishments on a weapon; over the long term this is sub optimal, however it provides the most radical boost in power at the start of a season, or for new characters.
Adding Sockets to Gear
Helmets, Belts, and Bracers can all be socketed using the
Radiant Jewelbinder consumable which is acquired by skipping your Great
Vault selection. Doing so will earn you tokens, and six of those tokens can be
exchanged for the
Radiant Jewelbinder, which adds a socket to any eligible
piece of gear acquired in Season 1.
