Hi there all you Mistweaver Monks! Patch 5.2 has been on live servers for a couple of weeks now, the first wing of LFR has opened and loot will be dropping for millions in the WoW universe. In this post we’re going to list the best items for a Mistweaver Monk within LFR only. We’ll list them by slot, so you can have this window open while you’re raiding and switch over to it to quickly have a look before you use your bonus loot roll! We’ll focus on the pieces that are best for Mistweaver Monk Stat Priorities(i.e. Crit & Haste), and then list alternative options(i.e. Mastery). For those options with Mastery we suggest reforge to crit or haste Whether you go for Haste or Crit pieces depends on your stats.
