Windwalker Monk DPS Mythic+ Tips — Midnight Season 1

This is our recommended build for most Mythic+ scenarios. While the performance between both standard builds is very similar to one another, this Shado-Pan version is a bit easier to execute, and thus recommended for your weekly-key runs.

This is our alternative standard build for most Mythic+ scenarios. It is a bit more difficult to execute well than its Shado-Pan counterpart, but the performance is virtually the same, allowing for some variety in your gameplay depending on your preference in Hero Talents.

This is our recommended advanced build for higher-end Mythic+ scenarios. While the performance between both advanced builds is very similar to one another, this Shado-Pan version is a bit easier to execute, and thus recommended for your weekly-key runs.

Spear Hand Strike is your "kick" and your most important bit of utility in Mythic+, used to stop enemy casts for the benefit of the group and especially the tank. It is highly recommended to use a Focus Kick macro for this.

This macro will kick your focus target if you have one, mouseover if you have no Focus target, and your target if you have neither of those.

To quickly set a focus target in hectic scenarios, we also recommend a Focus Mouseover macro.

Make sure that your UI shows your Focus Target's casts clearly so that you are always able to kick it on cooldown or in coordination with the rest of your group.

Leg Sweep is your "AoE stop". It will knock down all targets in a generous radius, stopping their casts.

Ring of Peace is one of the most useful abilities in the game when it comes to controlling enemies. It interrupts casts and allows them to be positioned better.

Paralysis is a useful long CC that is used to isolate targets so that they aren't involved in the fight. It can also be used as an interrupt if the other options aren't available.

Detox is a useful ability to help remove any poison or disease debuffs that may be present.

Windwalkers have a large number of abilities on hand that can counter the Cosmic Ascension casts from the orbs this affix generates. Among these are your Spear Hand Strike, Paralysis, and even Ring of Peace or Leg Sweep. However, you may want to avoid overcommitting resources to stopping this affix in favor of still having them available for the traditional trash pulls of a dungeon; choose your tools carefully.

Void Emissaries spawned when this affix triggers only have 1 HP, with their health otherwise being an absorb. This means that your Touch of Death can instantly be used on them, dealing its full amount of damage and significantly negating their danger. With the frequency of these spawns, you will be able to cast Touch of Death on most. This does mean you will not have access to the ability for "regular" moments of the dungeon.

You are unable to gather the Void Pulsar orbiting your character on your own. It must be walked into by another player. In addition, these Pulsars will always orbit clockwise; take advantage of this and your own mobility to quickly gather another player's Pulsar that is in melee range to avoid disrupting enemy positioning too much.

Void Rift's absorb can be removed after receiving 53% of your maximum health in healing, or instantly with Detox. If you have talented into Vivacious Vivification as well, consider dispelling yourself and using an instant cast of Vivify to help out another player if there are not enough dispels to go around.
