Omg...and continuing to come back here and update us is nuts in itself.
Another 40 seconds?

^ This. I've yet to run in to any monks in bgs besides myself. As soon as I got to 90, I saw 1 other in a bg and he was getting trained just as hard as i was (both WW spec). Brewmaster is just an annoying target that is hard to kill but isn't going to kill you, and Mistweaver is alright. Going to run thug cleave as soon as I get my hunter to 90, but sub in a Mist weaver monk for heals / dispels, and some added dps.
Until Blizz fixes Monks, I doubt they'll ever be viable in mid / high end PvP. Not even that viable in low-end PvP.
its ok just wait 1-2 patchs till WW monks get buffed
Surprised the thread went this long before it was said... but this is an MMO. Who is good at PvP will change with every patch.
Not enjoying it now? Wait a while.
Yes yes, I know, the sky just bonked you on the head, casuals are taking over the government, and some baddie just got a raid drop... I think you'll live.

they undertuned monks because of s5
they'll fix them, but right now it's a helluva lot easier to kill shit with other specs
Yeah, Touch of Karma is really amazing, but the problem is with something else. Monks have a lot of spells that need aim, and as we know there is something like "game lag". While You think that a target is close to Your character, that is not really true, because he is some yards away. So that's why You are missing with Your Fists of Fury, Fire Flower, Leg Sweap / Charging Ox Wave, etc...
And for example of the spell named Disable - some of the classes have a passive slow - ferals, dks, retri (when talented), warriors... Obviously they dont have a snare if used second time, but I'd rather have a passive slow than a snare for few seconds..
As most of said already - we have to wait. Unfortunately.
Well to me it sounds you sir just sucks in pvp, i am completly owning and enjoying everything on my WW monk, i love the highskill cap, less nabs like you.
..facepalm
No one considers FPS games to be 'pvp. You may as well say Madden is PVP. What you mean is ONLINE multiplayer video games. PVP has generally always been to refer to MMO and RPG multplayer games.
I also laugh how everyone that says WoW PVP is a joke never has been Gladiator or anything to show they've actually done it at the max level and know what they're talking about.
havnt played WW in PvP yet, however mistweaver is such a fun in PvP. I feel so tanky, so mobile and effective in rnd bgs. Havnt played arena or rbgs yet, however I really like the playstyle of Mistweaver in PvP.
I have seen some crazy WW monks in Warsong / Eye with Goblin Glider and 3 rolls and serpent kick.
I've been doing just fine as mistweaver. Decent mobility, strong fast heals, hit 2k yesterday (albeit in 2s).
I will say however that WW is 100% not viable in PvP right now. It's really not even close. The degree to which it is outclassed by similar roles is staggering. The sheer amount of changes that they would need to put in the game to make WW PvP-viable makes me think that it may never happen.
