Best Gems, Enchants, Food, and Flasks for Mistweaver Monk in The War Within
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 Mistweaver Monk, please visit our dedicated Stats page.
Best Corruption Enchants for Mistweaver Monk in The War Within
On May 20th, Horrific Vision scenarios will become available, which reward gear and Corruption Enchants, which can be used on helms. We recommend the following enchants:
- Raiding:
Greater Rune of the Void Ritual
- M+:
Greater Rune of the Void Ritual
The only one of these enchants that increases our healing is the Rune of the Void Ritual,
and as such it is recommended for most content. For Mythic+ you may find you want more
damage, in which case you can try Greater Rune of Twilight Devastation, but keep in
mind it has a -33% modifier to its damage for non-DPS specs like Mistweaver.
For more details on the Horrific Vision scenarios, please check out detailed guide:
Best Gems for Mistweaver Monk in The War Within
We highly recommend using QuestionablyEpic to sim your character's ideal gems and enchants, as they might differ from our general recommendations.
Raiding
The best stats for Raiding Mistweaver Monks are Haste and Crit, so that is what we will be gemming for.
You should use Elusive Blasphemite in one socket. Then, you
should ensure you have one gem of each type in other sockets to max out the gem's effect, ideally
Quick Ruby/
Quick Onyx/
Quick Sapphire/
Deadly Emerald. Fill in remaining sockets with
Deadly Emerald.
Mythic+
The best stats for Mythic+ Mistweaver Monks are still likely Haste and Crit but can change depending on your goals. Haste will always be ideal to stack until you hit diminishing returns, but depending on your playstyle, you can opt to choose Crit, Mastery, or Vers as your second stat to stack.
You should use Elusive Blasphemite in one socket. Then, you
should ensure you have one gem of each type in other sockets to max out the gem's effect, ideally
Quick Ruby/
Quick Onyx/
Quick Sapphire/
and your preferred Emerald of choice from the list below, depending on which secondary stat you want to focus, filling
your remaining sockets with that gem as well.
Each of the Emerald types are:
Deadly Emerald;
Masterful Emerald;
Versatile Emerald;
Quick Emerald.

Best Flask for Mistweaver Monk in The War Within
You should be drinking the Flask of Tempered Swiftness at all times.
Best Weapon Oil for Mistweaver Monk
You should be using Algari Mana Oil
Best Potion for Mistweaver Monk in The War Within
Use Slumbering Soul Serum to regenerate Mana if you can afford the
downtime, otherwise
Algari Mana Potion is better.
Tempered Potion
is the best stat potion for personal gain, but you will likely want to use
Potion Bomb of Power
instead for more group damage. You can obtain many of these potions, such as
Fleeting Tempered Potion,
from Cauldrons that can be spawned by Alchemists
Finally, Grotesque Vial can be used while dead and be the difference
between victory and defeat in an encounter.
You should keep a stock of Algari Healing Potions to use when at
low health, and if you have a Warlock in the group, grab their
Healthstones and use them as well. Do not macro these together, they
are best used separately! You can also obtain
Fleeting Algari Healing Potion from Cauldrons that can be spawned by
Alchemists.
Best Food for Mistweaver Monk in The War Within
You should be eating from a Feast at all times, either
Feast of the Divine Day,
Feast of the Midnight Masquerade, or
Hearty Feast of the Midnight Masquerade.
If Feasts are not available, eat Outsider's Provisions,
Beledar's Bounty,
Jester's Board, or
Empress' Farewell instead.
In addition, if you can afford it, you should use Crystallized Augment Runes to
increase your primary stat. Augment Runes are expensive, and disappear on death, so use them wisely!
