Tier Sets
Midnight Season 1 Mistweaver Monk Tier Set Bonuses:
- (2) Set Bonus: Renewing Mist healing is increased by 20%
- (4) Set Bonus: Casting Thunder Focus Tea applies a Renewing Mist for 20 sec onto a nearby ally
Tier Set Discussion:
Tier set effect from Midnight emphasises the continuous playstyle of keeping Renewing Mist up on as many targets as possible. In a raiding environment this works out great using Vivify and Invigorating Mists to cleave heal the entire raid group. Within a Mythic+ setting you’ll see great value from Mistline.
Overall it’s a great tier set when it comes to aiding your overall uptime of Renewing Mist.

Trinkets
As it stands, there are four great options of trinkets we can target, two from raid and two from Mythic+:
- Locus-Walker's Ribbon - even though this has mastery as a secondary, it continuously stacks intellect up to 10 times while in combat, which makes it great for raids. You’re already receiving more intellect from the first stack of it than what any other trinket's static stats grant.
- Volatile Void Suffuser - having haste stats is great for Mistweaver, and on top of that, it also has a chance to grant you intellect while healing.
- Emberwing Feather - active on-use trinket granting haste pairs really nicely with your celestial cooldowns. The trinket, being on a 2 minute cooldown also has it working out great paired with the Mag’har Orc racial Ancestral Call.
- Heart Of Wind - passive procs of haste throughout the fight has always been a great thing for Mistweaver as most of our spells scale with haste.
Any combo of them will work out for you early on in the season.
Embellishments
Due to the new costs of upgrading items in Midnight, there’s an increased value in crafting Mythic+ level pieces as they use less crests compared to upgraded pieces. Because of that, the priority as Mistweaver will always be to get a 2-hand weapon (staff) as your first craft.
Embellishments are generally weak and because of this, you’ll prioritise crafting in the following order:
- 2-hand weapon, Aln'hara Cane. This will require 4 Spark Of Radiance and can be crafted with the Primal Spore Binding embellishment
- Any high intellect armor piece that’s not a tier piece slot. Waist, boots and shoulders are great options. Shoulders are considered an off-piece slot (the tier piece slot you won’t be using) as it has too much mastery.
Also, due to the lower crest of crafting a 2-hand Mythic track weapon compared to upgrading one, it will always be your first craft.
