Just some numbers: Tiger Palm and BK do about 80k noncrit with musclememory, jab does 7k, autoattacking 12k average noncrit.
[Edit just for comparison]On live my tp does 12k noncrit, BK 24k, jab 5k and autoattacking avg 10k[/edit]
In raids on live I am doing about 20-25k dps, usually competing with the tanks for the lower end of damage recount, if this would go live as it is on PTR that would mean I would be doing about 100k dps (but again, it's hard to actually calculate the raid buffed scaling from a target dummy test).
If the healing still is as high as on live (or maybe even buffed - this is quite hard to test on a training dummy), this would have a drastical impact especially on 10 player raiding, where fistweavers could significantly contribute to raid damage requirements, benching - depending on the fight - pure healers or pure damagedealers.
I really cannot imagine this will go live as it is right now.
