wow the brewmaster stuff looks amazing
Any idea what kind of armor they wear? Leather, mail, plate... Need dem BoA's.
I'm calling it now. Monks are gonna be stupid OP when 5.0 hits (Ya ya I know, it's not even beta...)
yaaaaaay monk!
O_O i saw touch of death and before i noticed non-player targets i was like "God damn, monks gonna be stacking health and oneshotting people"
lulz. looking sweet!

Yeah i hate people who do that as well. Can't wait to try the brewmaster. Disappointed with female panda though - doesn't even look like a panda. Give the pandaren to allie; all their females are ugly anyway.
Looks really fun, the only issue is all the ability names. I hate all this shit about ale and brews and "spinning crane kick". I want serious names.
Some really fascinating mechanics here for tanks. Looks like the class will have a decent alternative to block in stagger, and a lot of potential cooldowns. I wonder how baseline damage reduction is going to look - leather armor doesn't provide much protection, and it seems like monks work with a straight 20% reduction rather than a large armor increase.
Lots of stuff to math out, but digging it so far.
Ommmgggggggggg
healer that does damage
Leather, I believe.
Edit: yes, leather. From http://blue.mmo-champion.com/topic/2...s-of-pandaria/ :

Now the question will be whether the monk should be a worse healer due to its ability to deal damage each cast, or whether it should be equal to everyone else because they can't turn off the damage.
Fascinating, as long as their heals don't end up being twice as powerful as everyone else...

Looks amazing. Cant wait for Beta
So i read most of the post...and i dont think I saw it touched upon at all.....
Do monks have an autoattack. I know they had mentioned they might not previously. Any answers?
Simply bitchin'.
Can't wait to try monks out.
Wow, I know it's subject to change, (and I really hope it is) but..
So many stuns and damage reductions stuff. This is gonna be horrible in pvp if it stays like this ...
Did they not learn anything from Ret's original mastery? On proc mastery does not work very well...
Can't wait to tank on the monk!!!!!!
Oh man, those are some awesome skills and talents. I'm rolling a monk on day one.
