Retail monk windwalker talent calculator

Monk talent trees at level 90

Monk has 3 specializations: Brewmaster, Mistweaver, Windwalker. This build uses Windwalker. Its hero choices are Conduit of the Celestials and Shado-Pan. The hero selector changes only the hero branch. Your class and specialization picks stay in place.

Windwalker points and unlocks

Available points are the sum of points earned at or below your chosen level. Each purchased rank costs one point in its own tree. Automatically learned talents cost no points. Points in your class tree cannot pay for talents in Windwalker or either hero branch.

A windwalker leveling example

At level 24, monk windwalker has8 class points and 7specialization points. Spending 8 class points above the first gate opens its next section, provided you complete the connected talents. Spending those points in Windwalkerdoes not open the class gate. Your first Conduit of the Celestials point arrives at level71.

Reaching the deeper windwalker talents

Thunderfist, Communion With Wind, Airborne Rhythm or Hurricane's Vaultrequire 20 points above the last Windwalker gate. Complete the connected path as well. To move points out of that path, refund these deeper talents first. A refund that leaves fewer than 20 points above the gate is blocked while a talent below it remains learned.

Comparing Airborne Rhythm and Hurricane's Vault

These Windwalker options share an octagonal node with 1 rank. Choose the effect you need, then learn the rank. Replacing one option keeps the same point cost.

Importing, exporting and sharing monk builds

Paste a monk loadout into the loadout box and choose Import loadout. It opens the matching specialization, including Brewmaster, Mistweaver, Windwalker. For this Windwalker plan, Export loadout includes your class picks, specialization picks and chosen Conduit of the Celestials or Shado-Pan branch. Copy build link also keeps your level. Hover or focus a node to read it, click to learn, and right click to refund. On a phone, tap the node and use Learn rank or Remove rank.

Retail uses separate class, specialization and hero point pools. The older talent calculators linked above use three trees that share one pool, so their build strings are not interchangeable. Game updates can change talents and invalidate older loadouts. Check the build and data date before reusing a saved plan.
