Windwalker Monk DPS Guide — The War Within (Season 1)
Welcome to our Windwalker Monk guide for World of Warcraft — The War Within (Season 1). Here, you will learn how to play as a Windwalker Monk in both raids and Mythic+ dungeons: from the very beginning to maximizing your DPS.
Windwalker Monk Overview
The Windwalker specialization is a melee DPS spec that focuses on using Energy, converting it into Chi, and using that Chi to deal damage. Windwalker is an incredibly mobile spec with a very strong presence in M+ and PvP but historically lags beyond other specs in Raids.
Strengths and Weaknesses
- Stat scaling should be significantly improved, especially with Haste.
- Mobility remains nearly unparalleled, if not improved from Dragonflight.
- Burst damage should be significant during cooldown windows, which can be every 90 seconds depending on talents.
- Could be one of the top targets for Power Infusion.
- Talent choices to adjust for how much downtime you enjoy.
- Playstyle similar to Dragonflight.
- Little to no damage loss for switching targets.
- Reduced defensive ability with the loss of Dampen Harm.
- Reduced burst AOE potential without Fatal Flying Guillotine.
- Lacks an immunity or unique utility.
Windwalker Monk and Guide Changes for The War Within

The War Within Changes to Windwalker Monk
Windwalker Monk Class Changes
Windwalker Monk has received a massive overhaul of the class and specialization talent tree. Many talents have been removed, repositioned, or replaced. Fortunately, the core of the spec remains mostly intact, but players who may have picked the spec up during Dragonflight may be surprised at the significant difference in available resources.
The most important change for Windwalker Monk has been the addition of increased Haste, Critical Strike, and Mastery scaling. Windwalker has long suffered from abysmal stat scaling throughout an expansion and required constant bandaid buffs to keep it relevant. Hopefully with the changes to stat scaling, this will no longer be a problem.
Leveling a Windwalker Monk
If you want to play a Windwalker Monk but currently do not have one at max level, you can check out our leveling guide for tips on your journey.
Once you reach the max level, it can be somewhat overwhelming to completely change the way you play by suddenly implementing a large number of addons in a short space of time, especially if they have a heavy visual impact on your UI. We recommend using some of the more basic addons recommended on our Addons page below while leveling so that you have more time to get used to them during the easier phases of playing your class.
Basics of Windwalker Monk Gameplay
Windwalker Monk is a spec about managing resources and abilities with cooldowns at the same time. The primary concern for Windwalkers is to use Tiger Palm to convert Energy into Chi for abilities like Rising Sun Kick and Fists of Fury with as little of a delay as possible while not capping your Energy or Chi.
Windwalker will inherently have more resources than you can use on those two abilities, so Windwalkers need to learn how to adequately incorporate enough Blackout Kick into the rotation so as to not overflow with Chi, but not so much that you don't have the Chi necessary to cast Rising Sun Kick and Fists of Fury as soon as they are available.
The Windwalker Monk Mastery, Mastery: Combo Strikes, forces the Windwalkers to prepare and think several steps ahead, since they will want to avoid using Blackout Kick or Tiger Palm back to back, rather trying to weave them artfully between other abilities in order to get the maximum damage possible.
If you are a beginner to the spec, but would like to learn the basics of the class, recommend looking through the Spell Summary first, as well as the Easy Mode page linked below.
If you are already familiar with Windwalker, you can head to the Talents and Rotation pages to jump into the more complex, detailed information.
How to Gear Up as a Windwalker Monk
Gearing as a Windwalker is relatively simple; start by grabbing the highest item level pieces you can get. Once you have accomplished that, you will want to take a look at our dedicated Gear Guide for more information on how to optimize your character's gear for playing.
After your character's gear is taken care of, the next step is to maximize your damage through other means. One way to do this is through using consumables, gems, and enchants. For information about those additional aspects of maximizing your character, see our dedicated pages for what you need.
End-Game as a Windwalker Monk
Leveling and "end-game" content generally look very different. Regardless of what type of content you are interested in, we have pages dedicated to providing you with the information that you need to be successful.
Improving as a Windwalker Monk
Everyone struggles from time to time, but what's important is how you overcome those struggles. Here are some pages with information and frequently asked questions or mistakes that players make that you may find helpful in improving your own performance.
