What is Corruption?
Corruption is a new system of power progression which replaces Titanforging; instead of item level bonuses, they will now have a chance to be Corrupted by the Old Gods, represented by the purple-colored stat which adds both a positive effect and stacking negative attribute which incurs penalties at various thresholds. Although the negative effects can reach a point at which they become debilitating, carefully managing the bonuses and penalties allows for a great deal of customization and individual power gain.
Corrupted gear can be freely cleansed by MOTHER in order to remove both effects and revert them back into normal items. Corruption can also be added on non-corrupted items, by purchasing
Preserved Contaminants with MOTHER
. Corruption resistance can also be gained over time, both from new minor essences, and the legendary cloak
, allowing more corrupted effects to be worn. For more information on all potential Corruptions, see our
Corruption Overview Guide
.
Buying Corruptions with Echoes of Ny'alotha for Windwalker Monks
What Corruptions should I Buy from MOTHER on a Windwalker Monks?
Corruptions now can be
purchased from MOTHER
using
. Every few days, a new set of Corruptions will be accessible.
With that in mind, the best method is to use the
Top Gear tool on Raidbots
to find out whats best for your character.
If you insist on not doing then then first follow the below charts and prioritize Corruption effects with higher Damage per Corruption. After that you can fill in the lesser efficient, but higher damage potential Corruption effects up to your current Corruption Resistance based on your Cloak level. This will mean switching in things like
and
for single target and
and
for multiple targets up to your desired Corruption level. If you're looking for a less RNG focused build then grab Stat % corruptions. Which stat % corruption depends heavily on your character and other corruption setups; %Versatility is a safe bet, %Mastery is good for AOE damage but less for single target, %Crit is also a reasonably safe bet. You'll have to sim your character to know which one is best for you.
For more information see the
Best-in-Slot article on PeakofSerenity.com
or the handy flowchart below.
Best Windwalker Monk Corruption Bonuses
We have comparative simulations for each of the various Corruption affixes which can roll on gear, courtesy of SimulationCraft and Bloodmallet. While this overview should give you a good general idea of how each compare to one another, your specific character may see slightly different results based on how you are geared and what Corruptions are available to you; you can create your own comparisons as well as combinations of different essences you have unlocked on your character using
Raidbots
Top Gear function. If you are not already familiar with Raidbots and how to use it, take a look at our
How To Guide
. When looking at corruption effects it is important not to look at the overall power of a given effect, but at how much power per corruption is gained while staying below your safe threshold. By using Top Gear, you can play with the Max Corruption bar, allowing you to maximize your damage based on your Corruption risk choices.
This is simply an overview and doesn't take into account the negative effects of stacking Corruption. While increasing Corruption will continually increase player power, it comes at the cost of serious side effects, which may be debilitating in some activities or encounters. Reference the Corruption Effect notes and recommendations below to see how your spec can best take advantage of these bonuses and deal with the detriments.
Please also note that when using more than one of the same corruption, even different tiers of the same corruption, the effect/benefit (damage, statistical gains, etc) stack while durations and proc rates remain unchanged. The only exception is
, unique to the Ny'alotha raid weapon
, which will proc independently when dual wielded.

Best Effects
- Strongest damage effect but very high corruption cost and high RNG.
- Slightly less damage per corruption, but also slightly less RNG than
.
- Windwalkers already have two strong abilities that scale with health, why not add a third.
- It reduces the CD of things that are already on CD, so during the buff 1s of real time is 1.3 or 1.5s of CD time. If you're attentive to it then it can be a very strong corruption. Not one of the strongest, but respectable.
- Still strong single target damage per corruption.
Affixes that increase the amount of stats you gain from gear will depend heavily on the quantity of that stat you have on your gear and how it compares to the other stats. Windwalkers do not blindly stack one stat over others, making finding a balance more important than just getting as much of one stat as possible.
Bad Effects
can be interesting; however due to the nature of Windwalker's abilities and being limited by resources, its difficult to make use of the increased cooldown reduction. If the cooldown reduction comes at a time that you don't have the resources readily available to use that ability when it's back up, then the proc is wasted.
Other effects are neither worth focusing on or avoiding due to mediocre value.
Best Windwalker Monk Ny'alotha Weapons
Besides random corruption effects, weapons from the new Ny'alotha raid also have exclusive effects on them, which can be quite powerful. Similar to random corruption effects, if you obtain a weapon with a subpar effect, you can always cleanse it. As a Windwalker Monk, you can obtain only one weapon directly but can be given others through Mistweaver loot specialization or trading:
always comes with
- A very strong corruption trait given its cost. Although it doesn't have any increased effectiveness for Windwalker Monks, it is the only trait that Windwalkers can directly get and is very strong.
Dealing with Negative Effects of Corruption
In addition to the bonuses, corrupted items also increase the Corrupted stat by varying amounts based on the tier of the effect. Corruption stat incurs penalties that the player must deal with, and while these effects start out rather benign, they quickly ramp up in both potency and impact, to the point where it can be very hard to deal with during a Dungeon or Raid encounter, and even become outright debilitating at the highest levels.
There are five effects unlocked at different total corruption levels:
- Unlocked with 1 Corruption
- Unlocked with 20 Corruption
- Unlocked with 40 Corruption
- Unlocked with 60 Corruption
- Unlocked with 80 Corruption
Learn more about Corruption in our in-depth guide!
At Rank 6, the legendary Cloak
gains an on-use effect which will remove and immune all currently active negative corruption effects.
- This debuff shouldn't restrict the speed or use of Windwalker's many movement abilities, making it largely a non-issue if you're attentive.
- Windwalker Monks can use Roll, Flying Serpent Kick, or Transcendence to get away from the Eye; though the most important part is making sure to position yourself in such a way that placing the zone does not force you out of melee range of your target. A 'left foot/right foot' strategy of standing on one side of a boss and switching sides when the void zone drops will help mitigate the area of denial, and the legendary cloak dispel can be used in cases where strategy restricts you from moving.
- Since the Thing from Beyond disappears when stunned, Leg Sweep can actually be a very valuable tool in tight quarters where it's impossible to avoid the creature. You should be able to mitigate the damage using Touch of Karma and potentially turn this negative into a positive if you're prepared for it and the other negative effects that come with it.
- Highly recommended to have Leg Sweep and a stun ready in order to get out of the effect, though you should be wary of letting your corruption get this high in the first place.
How Much Corruption Should a Windwalker Monk Take?
How much corruption you can handle really depends on how prepared you are, as well as the difficulty of content. Windwalkers have more tools to deal with Thing from Beyond than just about any other class. You can stop it at range with Paralyze, stop it when its close with Leg Sweep or Quaking Palm (if a Pandaren), or use Ring of Peace to knock it away.
Generally speaking:
Stay below 40 Corruption for Difficult/Progression content (Progression raids, high Mythic+ keys).
Stay below 60 Corruption for Easier/Farm content (farm raids, low Mythic+ keys).
Stay below 80 Corruption for trivial content (questing, etc). Only go above with dedicated and prepared healers.
You also want to be aware of encounter mechanics and how free you are to move around when dealing with higher amounts of corruption, particularly when the Thing from Beyond is involved at 40+ Corruption. While using Paralyze, Leg Sweep, Ring of Peace (if talented) or Quaking Palm (if a Pandaren) to stop it is possible, it's not always reliable as it can spawn more often than those cooldowns can be used. Keep in mind that it also becomes faster as corruption increases, along with the severity of all other corruption effects, so just because you
can
fear or stun the Thing from Beyond doesn't necessarily mean you'll always have time to react to it.

There is an incoherence. Why innefable truth rank 1 would be increasing your dps more than ineffable truth rank 2
