Gear is one of the most important elements in WoW to strengthen your Brewmaster Monk, providing massive amounts of stats as well as armor, procs, and set bonuses.
In this guide, we will explain how to obtain the best gear for your Brewmaster Monk in World of Warcraft: and how to check if a piece is BiS, an upgrade or just bad. This guide will help you select the best pieces of gear from Dungeons and Raids in BFA, whether they be weapons, trinkets, armor,
Azerite Traits
, or
Corruption

About the Author
This guide was written by Llarold! I’ve been tanking since Vanilla. During Mists of Pandaria, I saw an opportunity to begin writing guides, and I took it with the hopes of making myself a better tank and making the community into better tanks with me. I hope it’s working!
I am active in all of the tank class Discords but primarily contribute to theorycrafting discussions in
Peak of Serenity
and
Skyhold
(Monk and Warrior). I’m active on
Twitter
, where I mostly talk WoW (and basketball), and I’m half of the team responsible for the YouTube channel
WoW at Night
, which focuses primarily on tank guides and previews.
Brewmaster Monk Recommended Gear
What is the BIS Brewmaster Monk gear?
Because
Corruption
allows gear from many different sources to be competitive, targeting your absolute Best in Slot gear isn't entirely realistic; instead, we've created a Best in Slot list from the ideal Brewmaster Monk raid drops found in Ny'alotha, to help you decide what to prioritize and how best to spend your
.
While raid drops are generally the most reliable way of getting high item level gear, many other items can be just as good if not better, so you should reference the stat priorities listed on the
stats page
and our
Raidbots guide
to help determine your own BiS gear based on what is available to you.

Corruption Bonuses
Corruption is a replacement to Titanforging, added in Patch 8.3. Corruption bonuses on gear offer beneficial at the expense of receiving negative effects as your Corruption value increases. Some effects are distinctly more "worth it" than others, and here are the best ones!
Passives:
and
are both great all-around options.
provides increased Critical Strike damage and healing, making it an excellent, more offensively-oriented option.
Procs:
- A simple, decent Crit proc.
- A simple, decent Versatility proc.
- Post-buff, this is a great stat trait. Stat traits are weaker than damage proc traits for dealing damage, but offer a little more defensive value. Not bad!
- A strong single-target and AoE damage proc. It has been nerfed from total dominance, but it's still very good.
- By far the highest damage single target corruption, but it loses damage in AoE, so it's for pure single target DPS.
- Adds great single-target damage, but a little unreliable.
- A simple, reliable single-target damage proc.
- Adds excellent AoE damage, but the proc rate is fairly low, making it somewhat unreliable. Excellent in Mythic+.
Guaranteed Corruptions:
In Ny'alotha, Brewmaster Monks have access to two weapons with guaranteed Corruption effects.
grants
, a shadow damage proc that deals high damage in single target and AoE situations. It's great!
is guaranteed to have
. It adds a decent amount of single target damage and a trickle of healing. It's good, but not great.
Ny’alotha Trinkets
Defensive Trinkets
Ny’alotha has two defensive trinket options available to Brewmaster Monks:
provides a modest defensive cooldown -- slightly less than 100k damage at Mythic raid level -- on a one-minute cooldown. That’s usable, but not very impressive on its own, and it pales in comparison to trinkets from the past two raids. As the passive notes, the active ability can potentially scale up to 15% more damage reduction, making its absorb shield worth up to 350k per use at maximum effectiveness. That's a decent defensive cooldown, but it's a best-case scenario and only applies in Ny'alotha, not in Mythic+ dungeons or world content. Bummer.
provides a much more powerful base on-use defensive cooldown than
(roughly 3-4 times stronger), but it also has no passive value. 2 minutes is a relatively long cooldown for a tank trinket. It could be useful for mitigating huge amounts of burst spell damage in some encounters, but this probably won’t be all that popular.
The two best -- and only -- defensive trinkets for Brewmaster Monks from Ny’alotha are
and
, but you can definitely do better than
with high item level defensive trinkets from Eternal Palace -- or even offensive trinkets.
Offensive Trinkets
Ny’alotha has two trinkets usable as Brewmaster that must be acquired via Windwalker loot specialization, and three trinkets available to all specs. There is also an Intellect trinket only available to caster DPS that absolutely obliterates all other trinket options, even for melee dps, hunters, and tanks. Ooooooof.
is a Windwalker trinket that has a low damage proc that hits all enemies nearby. It doesn’t do much damage per hit, but it ramps up over time into a decent amount of burst damage, and its proc rate is insanely high. It’s currently the #1 AoE damage trinket in BFA.
is a Windwalker trinket with a simple, high damage on-use effect. It does a lot of burst damage, and that’s awesome! Unfortunately, it splits the damage across all targets, so it's better-oriented for single target and cleave than all-out AoE.
is a trinket available to all specs, and it grants a shockingly small amount of Haste and Speed at a very high uptime. Unfortunately, the expected uptime (>50%) isn’t enough to make up for the relatively low stat value, so this trinket is aggressively bad. Pass.
is a trinket available to all specs, and it grants Haste and Haste procs and Haste procs for party members. Haste, Haste, Haste! Haste is okay, but the uptime is low (~25%). It’s not great. It’s also part of a set that, when completed, grants Agility procs. That’s neat, but the set bonus isn’t enough to make up for either trinket being undertuned.
is a trinket available to all specs. It grants Versatility and a procced absorb shield that grants Critical Strike rating while active. Both stats are good and the Crit buff is large! Unfortunately, the shield is small, making the Crit buff unreliable. Boo! This trinket isn’t very good, either.
The ideal pair of trinkets from Ny’alotha for a Brewmaster Monk looking to maximize their damage is
and
. They are both really strong direct damage options in their particular niche. Unfortunately, Ny'alotha's stat trinkets aren't all that great. Mythic+ trinkets such as
and
are good options for improving your single target DPS. Eternal Palace trinkets, specifically
and
, are competitive in single target with higher item level Ny’alotha trinkets.
Basically, Mythic Ny'alotha trinkets may not be an upgrade over Mythic Eternal Palace trinkets, but sim yourself to be sure.
with
is also a tremendous source of single target DPS that way outperforms its item level. It remains an incredibly strong single-target DPS option, even in Ny’alotha!
Other Gear
Brewmaster Monk Trinkets
Item level is immensely important when comparing gear for tanks, but assuming all item levels are equal, here are several trinkets that stand out as being exceptional. In BFA, damage proc trinkets are powerful on tanks - moreso than on damage-dealers due to Mastery increasing tanks' Attack Power! If you need the additional defense, a secondary stat or defensive trinket is acceptable, but for most situations, purely offensive trinkets do wonders on tanks.
Name
Source
Zone
Description
Eternal Palace
Razor Coral is still a top-tier trinket for maximizing your damage, and it outperforms most of the trinkets in Ny'alotha.
Eternal Palace
Dribbling Inkpod also remains a top-tier option for maximizing single-target damage, even in Ny'alotha.
Eternal Palace
Bloodthirsty Urchin provides a reliable, potent trickle of healing. It's still a great tank trinket, especially when considered against the less-reliable options in Ny'alotha.
Battle of Dazar'alor
This BoD trinket is the one and only purely defensive trinket on this list. Why? It's (still!) the best-designed one in this entire expansion, that's why! Defense is overrated. You cannot Stagger your enemies to death, but if you feel undergeared or like you need a little boost to your defenses, this trinket is a great shot in the arm that scales with Haste and Versatility. Great stuff.
Tol Dagor
A valuable damage proc trinket that can really add a lot of DPS, especially in AoE. Because this trinket summons stationary cannons that deal damage over 10 seconds, movement will cause the trinket's DPS contribution to suffer immensely. Downsides notwithstanding, the DPS potential is really good.
Temple of Sethraliss
This is a lower-ceiling, higher-floor alternative to the
. It won't perform quite as well in best-case scenarios, especially AoE, but it doesn't have any of the drawbacks, making it much more reliable. It's a simple, solid damage proc trinket.
Siege of Boralus
A nice trinket with an excellent stat proc. Attacking your target to hit 5 stacks of the buff should not take much effort due to Rushing Jade Wind. This isn't quite as good offensively as a damage-proc trinket, but it's close and packs a bunch of defensive value.
Freehold
This trinket is, as you should expect from a pair of dice, a bit random. The Haste and Mastery procs are not as good as the Crit component, but this is still a decent, usable trinket.
Alchemy
Trainer?
Alchemy strikes again! This trinket is very solid for Brewmasters. Versatility is good and Agility is great. There is nothing bad about this trinket, and Alchemy is a great profession. No sarcasm!
Inscription
Auction House
The damage and Agility this trinket provides are an excellent starting point for Brewmasters that are still in the process of gearing up and want a good offensive trinket. Once you start picking up other, higher-level pieces, this will go by the wayside.
Inscription
Auction House
The Agility, armor, and healing this trinket offers are an excellent starting point for Brewmasters that are still in the process of gearing up and want a decent defensive trinket. Once you start picking up other, higher-level pieces, this will go by the wayside.
Mechagon Gear
Mechagon has several unique pieces of gear that, like Benthic gear, can punch above its weight class. Even better, there is no zone restriction to Mechagon's unique items!
- "This trinket deletes mobs."
Red Punchcard:
- This punchcard is a reward from Rustbolt Resistance - Revered. Cyclotronic Blast deals an absolutely B-A-N-A-N-A-S amount of single target damage, making it a top-tier DPS option.
While you cannot increase the item level of
, you can increase the overall item level of the trinket (and thus the Blast's damage!) by increasing the item level of your Yellow Punchcard. Try to get the highest level Yellow card you can!
You can also customize the secondary stats the trinket provides from Yellow Punchcards, so try to pick up a Crit or Versatility-based Punchcard from bosses in Operation: Mechagon, such as
or
, or through Junkyard Crafting.
Logic Loops and Bit Bands
Operation: Mechagon features customizable ring sets that work by using a Logic Loop's stated logic to trigger a Bit Band's stated effect.
Since the rings are all Haste-heavy, the itemization is not all that great for Brewmaster Monks. The defensive and healing effects are pretty lackluster, but the potential to add a small chunk of stat budget or direct damage is not bad, and can help a pair of rings slightly outperform their item level.
Behold, a table of Logic Loops and Bit Bands!
Conditions (Drops from
)
Effects (Drops from
)
, If you damage an enemy while you are behind them...
, ...then you gain 191 Haste for 15 seconds.
, If you activate an ability while your health is below 50%...
, ...then you absorb the next 20,040 Magic damage within 8 seconds.
, If you use 3 different spells or abilities on the same target...
, ...then you heal up to 5 injured allies for 10590.
, If you heal a target whose health is below 50%...
, ...then you deal 15,643 Nature damage to a nearby enemy.
The strongest offensive combination is
and
. This ring setup only slightly outperforms its item level, and a pair of regular rings with better stats and sockets or higher item level will probably be a better choice.
A
/
combo can be decent in AoE, but given the mediocre itemization of Bit Bands, it's probably not worth running this setup over normal rings unless your Logic Loop and Bit Band are your best ring options.
Mechagon Azerite Traits
Three pieces of Leather Azerite gear can drop in Mechagon:
Head:
Shoulders:
Chest:
and
both feature
, which is pretty bad, competing against
, which is awesome. Easy choice.
drops from King Mechagon, and features the trait
, which is very nice as long as you are wearing
with a Crit or Versatility Punchcard equipped. It's competing with
, which totally stinks, so this Azerite decision is a no-brainer.
Brewmaster Monk Azerite Armor
Azerite Armor, unlike other pieces of armor, is incapable of Warforging. This means that drops are essentially fixed, and a drop from a Mythic dungeon or raid will be more valuable than a drop from a Heroic dungeon or raid. Because Azerite bonuses scale with the item level of the piece of gear that grants them, item level is almost always the most important factor when choosing which pieces of gear you should wear (also, stats are good). That being said, if two items are of equal item level, you should prefer the one with better traits (duh!).
The best overall Azerite trait for Brewmasters is
. It is always worth taking, 100% of the time.
and
are both excellent one-point wonder options, as well.
is an inner-ring trait that is extremely strong defensively due to Monks' low armor. Its value is decreasing slightly as item levels, armor, and health values rise throughout the expansion, but it’s still strong!
provides extremely consistent healing, since it procs from Stagger ticks. It is generally regarded as the best defensive inner ring trait for tanking Mythic+. It doesn't quite have the edge that
does for raid tanking, but both are very good in any situation.
The general recommendation for Brewmaster traits is to try for one point in each of
,
, and
(not as necessary as the other options), and put as many points into
as possible. Always take
or
if they are available, as they are valuable. Damage proc traits are excellent alternatives for increasing your damage output (duh!).

Engineering Azerite Helm
While professions are somewhat interchangeable, providing unique but generally comparable bonuses, Engineering stands out beyond all of its fun gizmos and gadgets.
is one of the best Azerite helms for AoE DPS a Brewmaster Monk can equip, and it is a reasonably solid defensive piece, as well. In single target scenarios, it is a decent above-average option, but not quite the dominant choice it is in AoE.
In addition to
, which is overwhelmingly strong in AoE, the Engineering helms provide easy access to
, an outstanding Azerite trait. This all combines to make Engineering an excellent (if expensive) option. Engineering is pretty amazing outside of the helm, too (cool mounts, teleports, mailboxes, Jeeves, Reaves, Blingtron), so if you're interested: go for it!
Corruption for Brewmaster Monk
Corruption is a new system added in Visions of N'zoth that replaces Titanforging. When a piece of gear corrupts, it gains a beneficial effect, like an increase in stats or damage done, but it also increases your Corruption. Increased levels of Corruption cause negative effects like slow, periodic damage taken, or even reduced healing received.

Corruption Page
, including which Corruption effects to aim for and how much Corruption should you get.
Brewmaster Monk Corruption Guide
Corruption System Overview
Sources of Gear
There are many ways to gear in Battle for Azeroth, each with their own item level range, although due to Titanforging and Corruption, it is possible for some of those items to become much better than normal, competing or surpassing gear from higher content. With Season 4, the current Titanforging cap is item level
455
, with Corruption being possible to happen in any item from Season 4.
In addition to the occasional weekend quests, reputation vendors, and other semi-unique sources of gear, the common repeatable sources of gear are:

Additionally, Mythic+ dungeons offer their own scaling rewards. Each completion awards gear from that dungeon upon completion, while the weekly cache contains a single item based on the highest keystone completed in the week prior and drawn from a pool of all dungeons.

Finding Your Best Upgrades - Presenting the Droptimizer
The
Droptimizer
is a tool that uses current information from your character to calculate which bosses in a certain raid and in certain difficulty provide the largest immediate upgrades for you.
it uses the most recent information about your character and the latest theorycraft available to see how big of an upgrade is each piece of loot in a certain raid in a given difficulty.
It is the perfect tool to help you plan your bonus rolls, or check if you need loot from a certain boss or not.

Best Brewmaster Monk Legendaries for Leveling
Legion Legendary effects will deactivate at level 116, abandoning you when you need them most!
Until that point,

Sooooo much wrong with this guide, I can’t even... Llarod, you need to actually read Peak of Serenity yourself before writing something ridiculous like “best defensive azerite trait is Boiling Brew”. Ehhhhh what? Ever heart about Training of Nui’zao? Helm from Opulence best in slot? No, it’s not - all helms from BDA kinda suck, so you are definitely better off buying a helm with residuum, instead of chest. You have a decent chest option from Conclave, not the best but infinitely better than the heads that drop in the raid. Putting Kul’tiran cannonball runner and tiny electromental trinket above Dead-eye spyglass, which is probably the best offensive/defensive trinket for BrM at this item level is also kinda weird. And I didn’t even mention that you totally missed the point on Diamond-Laced Refracting Prism. This is why you bonus roll Opulence as a BrM, until you get it, this trinket is hands down one of the best choices you have, it provides insane amount of “self-healing” in combination with haste/versa and the fact that we have celestial fortune. I don’t even know why this guide is default for BrM, Trell’s guide is so much better.
