Covenants

Necrolord

A good all-round choice and the best M+ and PvP covenant for WW monks.

The covenant ability Bonedust Brew applies a debuff to enemies in a certain radius and gives your abilities a 50% chance for 10 seconds to deal 35% of that ability a second time. Additionally your Spinning Crane Kick refunds 1 Chi when damaging targets affected by Bonedust Brew.

Fleshcraft as a signature ability offers you a 20% health shield and can go up to 50% of your health the more health the dead target has.

1. Emeni is the best soulbind on renown 54 and higher. Lead by Example grants you and nearby allies agility. You get three potency slots by renown 42 and another split DPS ability on renown 54 called Pustule Eruption. For every 1 second channeled of Fleshcraft you cover yourself in pustules that deal damage to nearby enemies or heal nearby allies. This transforms Fleshcraft into a DPS ability which should be used on cooldown.
2. Another good soulbind is Bonesmith Heimir. Forgeborne Reveries grants up to 3% Agility per Armor Enchantment and you gain the ability to deal damage for 10 seconds after you died with 50% reduced effectiveness. Your third potency slot is unlocked by Renown 41. A small mastery increased on targets with more than 90% health is unlocked at Renown 48 and the last damage ability Mnemonic-Equipment comes at renown 57.
3. Marileth is the best soulbind for patchwork fights. You gain a benefit based on what corpse Fleshcraft consumed. Three potency slots by renown 43 and Kevin’s Oozeling on renown 55. After using Bonedust Brew you summon a pet that lets enemies take 6% increased damage from you and grants a shield to allies.

Kyrian

Windwalker Monk Trinkets

Kyrian is one of the best covenant choices for Windwalker Monks if you plan on raiding and doing Mythic+.

The Kyrian covenant ability, Weapons of Order increases Mastery by 12.5% for 30 seconds, applies a buff after Rising Sun Kick, which reduces the cost of all Chi spenders by 1. Blackout Kick reduces the Cooldown of Rising Sun Kick and Fists of Fury by 2 seconds instead of 1.

Kyrians signature ability, Summon Steward, gives you a potion that heals 20% of your health and removes all Curses, Disease, Poison and Bleeds. It has a very good value for the defensive kit of Windwalker Monks.

1. A good soulbind is Pelagos. He offers an early mastery buff with Combat Meditation, which increases mastery by 350 for 20 seconds. You can extend the effect to around 35 seconds if you collect blue orbs that spawn around your player model. Pelagos also offers two potency conduits and two endurance conduits and gives you up to a 3% magic damage reduction with Let Go of the Past. A third potency conduit is unlocked at Renown 43 and additional primary stat procc on Renown 55.
2. The best soulbind once you are renown 57 is Mikanikos. This soulbind summons a pet which assists you for 30 seconds. You get two early potency slots in the first 20 renown. Your third playable potency conduit is on Renown 41. A 1% every three second damage increase, up to 15 seconds is unlocked at Renown 48. This ability is only usable on one enemy per time. An AoE ability, which deals damage between targets and reduces the cooldown of Weapons of Order is granted on Renown 57.

Night Fae

Picking Night Fae as a Windwalker Monk offers a well-built covenant choice for all types of content and comes close to Kyrian and Necrolord due to the new Night Fae Legendary Faeline Harmony.

Your covenant ability as a Monk with the Night Fae is Faeline Stomp which deals damage to up to 5 enemies in front of you. Additionally, your abilities have a 6% chance of resetting the cooldown of Faeline Stomp while you are fighting on a faeline.

The signature ability of Night Fae, Soulshape increases your movement by 50% for 15 seconds. Nice to have, but has no big impact as Windwalker Monk already offers a lot of movement utility.

1. Niyas soulbind is the strongest Single Target for Windwalker Monks. Grove Invigoration grants mastery per stack while Niya's Tools: Burrs does a lot of damage on one target: Additionally you are able to play two potency conduits from Renown 43 onwards.
2. Korayn is your M+/AoE Soulbind. You get 10% extra damage to targets above 75% health with Wild Hunt Tactics early on. The last soulbind ability of Korayn is First Strike, which gives you 25% critical strike chance for 5 seconds if you damage an enemy before they damage you. A second potency is unlocked on Renown 41 and you get a small damage increase of 5% on targets that drop below 35% health after Wild Hunt Tactics proced. This 5% damage buff lasts for 10 seconds.

Venthyr

Venthyrs covenant ability is Fallen Order, which summons a spirit every 3 seconds for 24 seconds which assaults targets with Fists of Fury. The signature ability is Door of Shadows, which teleports a player for 35 yards to the targeted location. This covenant is the weakest for Windwalker Monk in every type of content and is not suggested to be played.

Conduits

The conduits listed below are the ones most useful to you. Conduits not noted do not bring as much as those listed.

Potency Conduits (offensive)

• Coordinated Offensive: After fixating your spirits ofStorm ,Earth, and Fire, they deal additional damage. This is the best single target conduit for Windwalker.
• Calculated Strikes: The damage bonus forSpinning Crane Kick after striking a unique target withTiger Palm,Blackout Kick orRising Sun Kick is increased by an additional percentage. This is the best AoE and mythic+ conduit and should be used together with the talentDance of Chi-Ji.
• Bone Marrow Hops: The shadow damage ofBonedust Brew is increased and whenever it deals damage or healing, its cooldown is reduced by 0.5 seconds. This will be your go-to conduit as a Necrolord Windwalker Monk.
• Strike with Clarity: Increased the duration ofWeapons of Order by 5 seconds and grants additional Mastery. The second-best single target conduit for Windwalker Monk if you play Kyrian.
• Way of the Fae: Increased the initial damage of Faeline Stomp per target, up to a 5 time value. A decent AoE conduit if you play Night Fae.
• Xuen's Bond: Abilities that active Combo Strikes reduce the cooldown ofInvoke Xuen, the White Tiger by 0.1 seconds and the damage of Xuen is increased. A decent conduit for Mythic+.

Finesse Conduit (utility)

• Dizzying Tumble: Targets affected by Leg Sweep deal reduced damage for 5 seconds. A nice to have conduit for Mythic+.
• Swift Transference: Grants additional movement speed for 5 seconds after using Transcendence: Transfer: Grants additional movement as a Windwalker.
• Tumbling Technique: Blackout Kick has a chance to grant an additional charge of Roll. Same as before, additional movement as a Windwalker.

Endurance Conduit (defensive)

• Fortifying Ingredients: Grants a shield for 15 seconds up to a certain percentage of your maximum health after using Fortifying Brew. This is the best defensive conduit as a Windwalker.
• Harm Denial: Increases the healing of Expel Harm. Since you use Expel Harm on cooldown, this conduit provides additional benefits like more healing.
• Grounding Breath: More of a PvP conduit, as it increased the healing of Vivify on yourself and has a 30% chance of refunding its costs.

Legendaries

Invoker's Delight - After summoning your celestial your Haste is increased by 33% for 20 seconds. Grants additional haste in our burst windows, making this legendary the best pick for every situation if you don't play Night Fae.

Optimal Slot: Cloak.

Faeline Harmony - Abilities reset Faeline Stomp 100% more often. Allies take 8% more healing from you, while enemies take 8% more damage. If you play Night Fae as a Windwalker, this is your go to legendary.

Optimal Slot: Waist.

Jade Ignition - When you damage a target with Fists of Fury you gain a stack of Chi Energy. Using Spinning Crane Kick causes a Chi explosion damaging all targets within 8 yards and the damage of the explosion is increased by 5% for each stack of Chi Energy, up to 30. Since the explosion is uncapped, this legendary can perform on big pulls but isn’t an alternative to Invoker's Delight or Faeline Harmony.

Optimal Slot: Cloak.

Domination Shards:

Cached

As a Domination Shard set you want to play with the Unholy set, which grants small portions of Agility for each stack up to 15. On 15 stacks you do a small amount of AoE damage and are granted a big amount of agility for 15 seconds.

The following can be used as a priority list depending on how many domination sockets you have, ranging from 1 to 5.

• 1 domination socket: Shard of Dyz
• 2 domination sockets. Shard of Dyz and Shard of Cor
• 3 domination sockets: Ideally Shard of Dyz + Shard of Zed + Shard of Oth, otherwise Shard of Dyz, Shard of Cor and Shard of Bek
• 4 domination sockets: Shard of Dyz + Shard of Zed + Shard of Oth + Shard of Cor
• 5 domination sockets: Shard of Dyz + Shard of Zed + Shard of Oth + Shard of Cor + Shard of Bek

Images

Only Shard of Dyz /,Shard of Cor / Shard of Bek give you a noticeable damage increase so if you don't play with a 3-set, the other 6 available shards are more a defensive/utility gain and are not as important to you.

Disclaimer: Don't forget to upgrade your Shards with Stygian Ember as your 3-set grows stronger for each of the set shards you have leveled, from 1 to 5.
