Educational 2v2 | How to BEAT Windwalker Monks! – 9.2 Shadowlands Mistweaver Monk PvP

what if we hit the essence font button

i know that it costs 7% mana, which is atrocious, but HEAR ME OUT… do we end up saving more mana hitting that button, than the collective mana loss of the other buttons we have to hit to do the same healing?
we drop 2nd thunder talent, pick up one of the essence font HoT duration talents (fuck full channeling, we only care about the HoT), and we just hit font->soothing -> expel harm to full heal ourselves (more healing than soothing->enveloping->viv cause it gets double gusts up for 8s). or just a font->soothing->viv with double gust proc on a renewing mist proc to insta an ally. nothing can replace thunder->soothing->enveloping->viv, that's the bread and butter oh shit button, but THE FONT can be pretty insane.
don't even get me started on a crit. don't even get me started on the bonedust brew math.

i may be in the process of creating a HORRENDOUS pvp CHIJI build… 4set statue lookin pretty nice, but double gusts 4set chiji probably a BETTER 24s version of ascendance on a 1.5min cd (because conduit).

===LESS TROLL THEORY CRAFTING PART OF THE POST BELOW===
i'm glad we've moved to lifecycles, i was feeling that too; tea just not hitting the same.
but now i gotta drop it on you, watch your own videos mannnnnn; you're running clouded focus but how often you getting more value than 1 proc off it? first cast don't count for the reduction, that means you're only taking 20% off the top of a viv that already has 25% reduced because of lifecycles (cause usually you're hitting enveloping->viv /// or just soothing->viv and not even using the legendary), % reductions = diminishing returns cause smaller numbers.

This pvp has evolved into "shitty gw2 pvp with giant blocks all over your screen"
