Mistweaver Monk spell usage and comparisons

[Krazyito 521]

Note: This is not just for me. This thread if for anyone wanting to evaluate their playstyle and compare to other monks, or just to ask what they might be doing wrong.

I want make this thread to try to get a consensus of how people play. Mainly I want this to have logs of people playing mistweaver (be it their own or someone elses) and compare the spell usage to see who is doing what, why, and better.

Providing links to armorys will also be beneficial to show gear differences.

Here is an example, I will be comparing myself to Madmonk.

http://raidbots.com/...1000425#healing

Total Chi gain throughout the fight

Me: 232

MadMonk: 223

But since 27 of my Chi came from Jab (meaning I did some fistweaving then most of that chi i generated went into BoK and TP. I tiger plamed 21 times, + 5 BoK which equals 31 chi used on fistweaving out of my 232.

So effectively I only gained 201 chi for uplift healing purposes.

The biggest difference between our healing is renewing mists, uplift and chi gains. Mad monk casted 3 more ReM's then me so we are both playing similarly

Thunder Focus Tea Usage:

Me: 11

MadMonk: 8

So here, I am using this spell more often, but he might be making better use of it then me seeing as his ReM healing is so much higher.

Comparing our stats

Now first thing I notice is he has more intellect and more haste then me, but less crit. Spirit is roughly the same.

My question to him is, Why do you use so much haste? Are you reaching a 3rd ReM breakpoint?

His high haste could be a small part to his High ReM healing coupled with the 2k more intellect. Another big difference just could be play styles. He may just play his character better then I do.

Last note: Gear Difference

[Krazyito 521]

I got new gear today. So ill compare twin consorts again tomorrow if we get that far.

I do indeed get an extra tick from ReM which is why I do more healing with it. I really wanted to get to the new cap as it will work wonders with our set bonuses (currently on 3 pieces).

One of the reasons why I'm doing more healing is that I have slightly better gear, especially my 528 weapon adds a lot of spellpower.

Nice comparisons, I'm looking forward for more.

P.S. I don't really remember why my TFT usage is low, I may have lined it up with abilities, but on most fights I try to use it on cooldown.

What is the breakpoint after 6141. I may try it. But I'm doing well right w with 7k crit rating..

And I did pick up the same weapon you have (thunderforged too) last night. Along with pants from Primordius and Ring from Durumu.

I have found different reports and most claim it is 9145 but when I had that much i didn't get the extra tick, there was one report that said 9146 and after trying that it worked.

Unfortunately I cannot compare this weeks logs effectively because my raid did WAY better over all on the fight then normal, so the damage for the entire fight was very minimal. Our healers made a competition out of it to see who got the most healing and there was 4 of us neck and neck to each other just barley getting healing numbers out of it.

So technically, according to logs, I did worst this week then last week, but that does not take into account raid awareness, which in this case was very high, therefore less healing was needed. Which is one problem I overlook many times when comparing logs.

There are the logs for it nonetheless if someone wanted to look at it.

looking closely my ReM had a 54% over heal, while Uplift had a 60% over heal. We were squeezing those numbers pretty tight. I even used my chi burst so badly with a 70% over heal..

Then take into account we killed it 30 seconds quicker makes it even worse for comparisons. At least my raid did a superb job at the fight, which I am glad for.
