Our goal with Mistweaver Monks is to accentuate the existing characteristics that define them, and resolve some core gameplay issues. The inner tranquility that guides mistweavers allows them to sustain their healing for long periods of time, and gives them the strength to care for multiple injured allies. But those who weave the mists wield the power of life’s essence, using a mixture of preventative and restorative spells to mend their allies’ wounds. The energies they channel are mysterious, oftentimes misunderstood by commoners-who rarely travel beyond the borders of their homelands-as some form of folk medicine. Mistweavers are unique among those who heal.

Our new design approach is to get more gameplay depth out of their strong, thematic abilities. Rather than being the tricky martial artists, staggering around with an evasiveness that frustrates their opponent while being a little squishy when taking an unmitigated blow, Brewmasters have been more focused around large absorption shields and clutch self-healing. The gameplay for Brewmasters hasn’t quite fit their archetypes to this point. When an opponent actually manages to land an attack, it’s often unclear how much the brewmaster feels it. Most opponents barely have time to process the erratic nature of the brewmaster’s fighting tactics before they find themselves laid low-possibly the result of a keg smash to the head. Brewmasters may seem to struggle with balance as they chug their concoctions in the middle of a fight, but this unpredictable behavior is far from foolhardiness. The brewmaster is a quirky character, though dangerous when underestimated. We’re also looking at abilities that already lend themselves well to the Monk’s character, but whose mechanics are in need of polish. In Legion, we’re focusing on making sure Monk abilities and gameplay better match the class’s vivid backstory. Perhaps most surprisingly, Monks are also adept at producing powerful brews they consume to aid them in battle. They view the world through a different lens, finding power through serenity and inner peace-then expressing it through artful combat techniques and powers that mend life.
They seek spiritual balance in life and in combat, and as dangerous as Monks can be on the battlefield, they’re rarely looking to pick a fight without just cause. Monks bring a unique martial arts style to any fight, and harness an exotic form of magical energy that’s unfamiliar to those who practice other arcane arts. Monks were introduced in Mists of Pandaria, and their story is woven directly into the expansion’s rich and vibrant lore. With that in mind, let’s delve into what it means to be a Monk in World of Warcraft. In these blogs, we’ll be exploring class identity, discussing Legion’s new designs, and presenting core combat abilities for each specialization-laying out the foundation upon which talents and Artifacts will build further. We continue our early look at class and specialization design with the Monk.
In this entry, we’re exploring the Monk-to find out what’s in store for a different class, check out the overview. Welcome to our World of Warcraft: Legion class preview series.
