Monk macros

Monks are disciplined martial artists, using their inner strength and mastery of ancient techniques to heal, protect, and vanquish their foes.

18 macros

Brewmaster Panic Brews
Monk
```
#showtooltip Fortifying Brew
/cast Fortifying Brew
/cast Dampen Harm
```
Fires Fortifying Brew and Dampen Harm together. Neither costs a global cooldown, so stacking them on one key gives you a large instant reduction when a tank buster lands.
Detox (Mouseover)
Monk
```
#showtooltip Detox
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Detox
```
Dispels whoever your cursor is over, then your target, then yourself. Dispelling is time-critical and almost never needed on the person you are already healing.
Enveloping Mist (Mouseover)
Monk
```
#showtooltip Enveloping Mist
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Enveloping Mist
```
Applies your strongest heal-over-time to whoever you are hovering. Because it also boosts your other healing on that target, getting it onto the right person quickly matters.
Invoke Xuen with Trinket
Monk
```
#showtooltip Invoke Xuen, the White Tiger
/cast Invoke Xuen, the White Tiger
/use 13
```
Summons Xuen and fires your first trinket in the same press so your damage cooldowns stay aligned without you tracking them separately.
Leg Sweep (Instant)
Monk
```
#showtooltip Leg Sweep
/stopcasting
/cast Leg Sweep
```
Cancels your queued ability and stuns everything around you immediately. Leg Sweep is usually a reaction to a cast bar you need to stop right now.
Life Cocoon (Mouseover)
Monk
```
#showtooltip Life Cocoon
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Life Cocoon
```
Throws your big external shield onto whoever you are hovering. Life Cocoon is an emergency button and the emergency is rarely on your current target.
Never Clip Fists of Fury
Monk
```
#showtooltip Tiger Palm
/stopmacro [channeling:Fists of Fury]
/cast Tiger Palm
```
Refuses to fire while Fists of Fury is channelling, so mashing your filler cannot cut the channel short and lose you a tick of damage. Swap Tiger Palm for whichever button you are binding.
Paralysis (Focus)
Monk
```
#showtooltip Paralysis
/cast [@focus,harm,nodead][] Paralysis
```
Incapacitates your focus target without dropping your current one. Paralysis breaks on damage, so it belongs on something you are deliberately not hitting.
Renewing Mist (Mouseover)
Monk
```
#showtooltip Renewing Mist
/cast [@mouseover,help,nodead][help][@player] Renewing Mist
```
Seeds your bouncing heal-over-time on a chosen ally. Renewing Mist is pressed on cooldown, and being able to aim it at the tank without a target swap keeps your other casts flowing.
Ring of Peace (Cursor)
Monk
```
#showtooltip Ring of Peace
/cast [@cursor] Ring of Peace
```
Places the knockback ring at your cursor with no reticle step. Ring of Peace is used to stop a pack reaching your healer, so it needs to land ahead of them rather than on top of you.
Roll Without Losing Target
Monk
```
#showtooltip Roll
/cast [known:Chi Torpedo] Chi Torpedo; Roll
```
Rolls in the direction you are facing while keeping your target. Roll and Chi Torpedo both move you relative to your character, so a clean bind avoids the classic accidental roll into the next pack.
Spammable Spinning Crane Kick
Monk
```
#showtooltip Spinning Crane Kick
/cast !Spinning Crane Kick
```
The exclamation mark stops a second press from cancelling the channel, so you can spam the key on a big pull without accidentally cutting your own damage short.

Every class shares the same macro syntax, so a good idea usually ports across.
