Stat Outline

As always for your stats, enchants and gems: Some of them might be better than others depending on your gear or talents. Make sure to always sim yourself if you want to know the best combination for your gear.

Agility: Provides Attack Power which increases the damage you do.

Haste: Increases attack speed and Energy regeneration, reduces the cooldown and channel time (where relevant) of many of your spells, Increases the damage of your Fists of Fury through Momentum Boost, Increases the chance to proc Glory of the Dawn and Dance of Chi-Ji.

Versatility: Increases damage done and reduces damage taken.

Crit: Increases the chance of your spell doing double damage. Does not affect the damage from Touch of Death and Touch of Karma.

Mastery: Increases damage of abilities that are not a repeat of the previous cast. Note: This also affects the damage of Touch of Death.

Races

Races are within about a 1% DPS margin which means it doesn’t really matter what race you play. With that said there are a few races that have utility benefits that may be useful in the content you are doing such as Dwarf’s Stone Form, Blood Elf’s Arcane Torrent, or Orc’s Hardiness.

Gems

In the War Within, there is the addition of Meta Gems that gain additional effects when slotting your gear with different colored gems. In this case, Culminating Blasphemite grants you a 0.15% additional critical effect for each different color gem you slot into your gear. We utilize this by gemming one of the different colors of gems as we gain gem slots throughout the season.
