Windwalker Monk PvP Best Arena Compositions — Midnight Pre-Patch (12.0)
Team composition in 2v2 or 3v3 Arena is very important, because not all classes work well together. Here, we give you the best compositions you can have for your Windwalker Monk (i.e., the best classes to pair with it).
This page is part of our Windwalker Monk PvP Guide.
2v2 Arena
In 2v2 Arena, you will primarily be playing with a healer.
Your goal is to relentlessly attack the nearest enemy until they have no
cooldowns left. Every time you use
Zenith/
Invoke Xuen, the White Tiger, you will want to
Leg Sweep the kill target. The goal of this is to always have consistent damage that the enemy healer will have to heal. It is important to note that
Rising Sun Kick applies a debuff,
Mortal Wounds, on the target that reduces the healing the enemy gets healed for.
Here is a list of the best team compositions for 2v2:
- Windwalker + Holy Paladin
- Windwalker + Discipline Priest
- Windwalker + Preservation Evoker
- Windwalker + Restoration Druid
3v3 Arena
Your role in 3v3 is similar to 2v2 arena. You will likely be playing
Whirling Dragon Punch/
Zenith and focusing on
single target damage. When your team has damage, you will want to use
Paralysis on the enemy healer and then
Leg Sweep your kill
target. There is always potential for a kill on a target if they do not
have trinket, and you can use
Leg Sweep/
Touch of Death with
your burst rotation.
Here is a list of the best team compositions for 3v3:
- Walking Dead (Windwalker Monk + Unholy DK + Holy Paladin)
- Windwalker Monk + Elemental Shaman + Holy Paladin/Discipline Priest/Restoration Druid
- Windwalker Monk + Havoc Demon Hunter + Restoration Druid/Holy Paladin
- Windwalker Monk + Retribution Paladin + Preservation Evoker/Restoration Druid
- Windwalker Monk + Balance Druid + Holy Paladin/Restoration Druid
- Windwalker Monk + Destruction Warlock + Holy Paladin
- Windwalker Monk + Arcane Mage/Frost Mage + Holy Paladin/Restoration Druid
