This is one of two statues a Monk can drop depending on his specialization. The two are:

Summon Jade Serpent Statue : For Mistweaver Monks (Healing)
Summon Black Ox Statue : For Brewmaster Monks (Tank)

Comment by Alnair

this appears to have had its cooldown reduced from 3 minutes to 30 seconds, and its cast time reduced from 5 seconds to instant.

Obviously it used to be a Healing cooldown/Raid boss ability, and now it is meant to be incorportated into every fight.

since it lasts so long (15 minutes) you only need to cast it once on a long boss fight, but for dungeons you will need to cast it at the start of every trash pull, more or less.

The Eminence effect from Stance of the Wise Serpent and the Eminence (Statue) effect from Summon Jade Serpent Statue are separate and stackable.

That means that if you have both Stance of the Wise Serpent and Summon Jade Serpent Statue active, you get 100% damage converted to healing.

One thing to note is, that while leveling, i found that the Soothing Mist from Jade Serpent Statue only heals for 50% of the amount that your soothing mist heals.

Furthermore, don't forget that Spinning Crane Kick and Chi Wave do not trigger eminence.

So all in all pretty useless of a statue when you are healing, since the only thing it does is making your soothing mist 50% more effective. (the other skills you might attack with while healing as said a bove dont proc eminence)

Comment by fmccloud

As a general rule, Eminence will not proc on spells that do healing at the same time as they do damage.

~~The only exception is Spinning Crane Kick.~~(Just realized that specing into Mistweaver does make this spell follow the rule.)

They could briefly in beta, but was too hard to balance as most AoE heals diminish after 6 targets and AoE attacks after 10. So essentially, getting around the healing restriction. Plus, the amount of healing going out by, say Chi Burst, was enormous. One cast that hit 4 mobs and 4 players would easily heal a low health tank from 10-100%. So, it had be taken off as not to nerf it for the other 2 specs.

So I just hit 70 with my monk and ran a few dungeons, dropping my shiny new Jade Serpent Statue.

Is it coincidence, or is it entirely possible that the statue always targets the same player as I do with Soothing Mist? It's entirely possible that I have not used it enough, but on several trash pulls in the early Wrath dungeons, I have always seen it cast on the same target I'm healing.

I was kind of hoping the mechanic would work where, say, I'm mistily soothing the tank, and the statue adds in its love, but then the Boomkin pulls threat and starts to drop . . . so the statue flips, but no. I flip to the aggro ^&*!@ and the statue comes with me.

I've Googled and the only things I've found are various reports from various stages in the evolution of the statue during the beta when its behavior was quite different.

Thanks in advance.

I hope this doesn't come across too much as another Shaman griping about totems, but sometimes I look at Monks and their statues and just wonder... 'why?' As I can recall, Blizzard mainly stated the changes of things such as Healing Stream Totem to be more of a slight cooldown tactical ability to be used when needed rather than to just have down forever. And then, well... then they at the same time decide to change what would have been a cooldown for Monks into a light healing buff that lasts 5 times as long as any totem ever did!

As a word to you Monks from me, a Shaman, well... I am jealous, and wish you guys well with your new crafted companions! Just wish I still had mine in its entirety, too n_n

This spell is a handy way to heal people when your raid/group is spread out, as it will allow you to heal people that are out of range of you. Place it on once side, stand on the other - you can heal one side, smart heals on the other.
