![]() So the 20-30% loss of Spinning Crane Kick can translate into 5-15% less overall damage in situations where Spinning Crane Kick is a large percentage of your damage. On a fight with consistent AOE damage like Stone Legion Generals, or over the course of a M+ dungeon, Spinning Crane Kick can easily be 30-40% of your damage. This means that each cast of Spinning Crane Kick does 20-30% less damage. Because Mastery is generally a desirable stat, many Windwalkers have somewhere between 20-30% of it, assuming they've been balancing it with Critical Strike and Versatility. This is a bug that's very easy to calculate how it changes things for Windwalkers. While its unclear how these things are linked, I am very far from a computer programmer or coder, so I can't pass judgement on how A led to B led to C. This bug with Dance of Chi-Ji appeared to stem from when Blizzard fixed the talent version of Dance of Chi-Ji to correctly increase Spinning Crane Kick damage by 200%. Very few players noticed this unless they happened to be going and doing old content AND did so using an Azerite piece with Dance of Chi-Ji on it, so that's a small percentage of a small group of our already small population. This coincides with Blizzard pushing a small hotfix for Windwalkers that fixed another bug that caused the Azerite version of Dance of Chi-Ji to seemingly deal 10x the damage it should. As you can see the damage is nearly identical.Īs people combed through logs and other places we found that it appears to have popped up sometime late Friday. The left picture is using Spinning Crane Kick when Mastery should be triggering and increasing the damage, the right picture is using Spinning Crane Kick back to back so that Mastery shouldn't be triggering. Within a few minutes we had several people popping on Live to test it out, largely our EU compatriots who were more awake than I was at the time. This was first brought to my attention early Saturday morning when user, GGBE, commented on my 9.0.5 "Survival Guide" on, that several Chinese players had reported that Spinning Crane Kick was no longer scaling with Windwalker's Mastery. ![]() This means that whether you use Spinning Crane Kick into another Spinning Crane Kick or an ability in between, the casts will do the same damage. This is unquestionably unintended, but still results in a loss of damage for current Windwalkers in AOE situations. On live servers, it appears that Windwalkers currently no longer get Mastery benefit modifying Spinning Crane Kick. This guide is written and maintained by Babylonius former moderator on MMO-Champion current owner and administrator of the PeakofSerenity Monk class discord founder and Windwalker author of the Monk Class site, and those that came before it Guild Master and Midweek Raider in Occasional Excellence on US-Area 52 Windwalker main since early Mists of Pandaria, guide writer/theorycrafter/teacher for almost that whole time. In this article I'll discuss the details of the bug, talk about how long its been in place and what may have caused it, as well as what its effects are. In true "Bugwalker" fashion a few days ago Windwalkers discovered a new bug involving Spinning Crane Kick that popped up and has been decreasing Windwalker's AOE abilities.
