Comment by YveltusIt's a shame WW's current bis is already so strong, otherwise Call to Arms would be a very strong option. As soon as two legendaries becomes a thing I'm fairly sure it'll be used alongside the current one.Comment by StrungengEvery monk except me are Kyrians.

This legendaries make even more mandatory to go Kyrian XDD
WTF were they thinking.Comment by belgaerEvery monk except me are Kyrians.

WTF were they thinking.Comment by LilmermageThe night fae legendary could definitely be useful for brewmaster in Mythic+. The extra casts and damage might make it a competitive choice.Comment by HoheDoes Call to Arms invoke Chi'Ji if you chose that talent?Comment by bachewychompEvery monk except me are Kyrians.

I feel like for PvP which is all that matters to me anyway it will be slightly better but I'll have to test it. Invokers is great but everyone knows just to run or CC the monk / xuen during their 2 min go. With this e
You could split it up and do SEF / Xuen for a go and then set up have another strong go with WoO, SEF, 12 second Xuen. That's a ton of pressure and now DK/Monk/Healer becomes ever more tough to deal with bc xuen gives off strong aoe so now you have even more cleaveComment by axl86I know I quoted this backwards but I'm not used to doing this on my phone

Also remember haste is the least important stat for WW to the point where even 0% haste is fine. My full duelist geared monk has 2% haste
Yes the haste from Xuen is great bc it's so much haste but I honestly think this leggo might pull ahead

WTF were they thinking.Comment by KakistocratVenthyr monk too. I never raid more than LFR, nor do dungeon higher than Heroic. I do solo quite a bit, and the extra oomph + healing is worth it imo. I also dislike additional rotational abilities. It's perfect! That said, ofc I wished it was stronger. But oh well... :/Comment by basementcat13Keefers Skyreach and the Venth legendary will be great together when we can (hopefully) use two legendaries. Can't wait for that!Comment by PMMickI'm a Night Fae Monk. How would this compare to what I currently use for each spec?
WW - Really just comes down to math, whichever does more damage, and I suspect it will still be the fake bloodlust one, so no change there.
MW - I need ancient teachings in order to play the spec as I want to play it, so unless I'm allowed a second legendary, no other ones matter...
BM - I don't really play brew unless I'm doing low level dungeons so I just use the Touch of Death ones for the lols and I'll probably just keep doing that.Comment by hashtagfredI dont get the Kyrian legendary. I typically already summon xuen for twice as long when I use Weapons of Order. Could I have two xuen's out then with this one?

The Night Fae legendary makes me consider switching. But I probably won't, unless they add a mechanic to ensure your tank doesn't kite mobs away from your fae line stomp AOE so you can properly get a proc. 🙃Comment by Olympus3129Every monk except me are Kyrians.
