The dev team recently shared all of the new upcoming class sets for World of Warcraft The War Within Season 2. It seems that Blizzard wants to share them to the community as soon as possible so feedback can be provided to ensure that not only do the new Tier Sets are appropriate for each class' identity but also making it powerful enought to compete with the other sets.
Having that in mind, we will go over the proposed new Monk Class Sets to see whether the new design philosophy will befit all of the Monk specializations.

The War Within Season 2 Monk Class Sets
Here are all of the possible Monk class sets coming to Season 2 of The War Within.
In The War Within Season 2 Class Sets will have their 2-piece set bonus designs split by role (Healer, Tank, Ranged damage, Melee damage) and their 4-piece set bonus designs split by spec. We wil utilize unique keywords for each role in their 2-piece sets and then modify how each spec interacts with the keyword in their 4-piec set. These keywords will be tied thematically to our upcoming raid – Liberation of Undermine.
Brewmaster
- (2) Set Bonus: Each time you take damage you have a chance to activate Luck of the Draw! causing you to cast Fortifying Brew for 6 seconds. Your damage done is increased by 15% for 8 seconds after Luck of the Draw! activates.
- (4) Set Bonus: When you gain Luck of the Draw!, your next 2 casts of Blackout Kick deal 150% increased damage and incur a 2 seconds reduced cooldown.
Mistweaver
- (2) Set Bonus: Your healing spells have a chance to apply Insurance! to their targets that heals them over 15 seconds. Insurance! is consumed if any ally drops below 40% health to heal them.
- (4) Set Bonus: Casting Renewing Mist applies Insurance! for 6 seconds. The healing of Insurance! is increased by up to 50% in proportion to the coverage Renewing Mist has on you and up to 10 allies.
Windwalker
- (2) Set Bonus: Your spells and abilities have a chance to activate a Winning Streak! increasing the damage of your Rising Sun Kick and Spinning Crane Kick by 3%, stacking up to 10 times. Rising Sun Kick and Spinning Crane Kick have a 15% chance to remove Winning Streak!
- (4) Set Bonus: Fists of Fury applies 1 stack of Winning Streak! when cast and when finished channeling completely. The damage of your next Fists of Fury is increased by 5% per stack when Winning Streak! is removed. Your Winning Streak! is always removed once it reaches max stacks.
And that covers all of the new Monk Class Sets for Season 2 of The War Within. Although these bonuses are not final, it seems that Blizzard is going for an RNG-based mechanic which is goes hand in hand with the new Goblin-centered raid and content. You can check out the official post, here.
