Monk abilities

Monk abilities are abilities used by monks. Most abilities are shared between all specializations, while some are only specific to one (or two) specializations.

Class
All monks automatically learn the following spells at the specified level, regardless of specialization.

Specializations
The three monk specializations are Brewmaster (tanking), Mistweaver (healing) and Windwalker (melee DPS).

For a summary of the character and strengths of each spec, see Monk specializations.

   

Talents
Talents become available at level 15. Only one talent can be chosen from each tier.

They can be swapped out any time outside of a rested area using Tome of the Tranquil Mind.

PvP talents
PvP talents become available at level 20. Up to 3 PvP talents may be active at any given time (with additional slots becoming available at levels 30 and 40).

These talents are active in the open world with War Mode turned on, as well as during instanced PvP. They have no effect in dungeons and raids.

    

Miscellaneous

 * Zen Flight, an instant ability enabling the player to levitate and fly without a mount, is taught to all monks by Meditation Manual: Zen Flight, purchasable from Master Hwang and Caydori Brightstar at Level 30.
