  13. Okay so i might be harsh but this is constructive. (I hope)
    So first of all, the guide was outdated day 1. (Especially on talent)

    TLDR : I agree with most of the things you said but could have gone in depths for a better video. You've explained properly and it is really easy to understand this is a major good point. If i had to rate it on 20, i would give you 14/20 because overall it's a good video with greats explanations but they're "too simple" for brew.

    Stats in brew cannot be simply "this is bis and this is not". Yes ilvl is better than anything if you have agility BUT you can have defensives stats or offensives stats. (Respectively : Mastery > Versatility = Critical Strike > Haste // Versatility = Critical Strike > Haste > Mastery) (You can still tweak a little bit with them)

    In the lvl 15 row, Chi burst is actually super strong in M+ (low key/medium key) despite the fact that you can't avoid
    In the lvl 30 row, you can also pick Black Ox Brew for damage output (if you don't care about the defensive gameplay)

    The lvl 40 row is rarely Bob and Weave due to the rework of the Stagger.(But i think that Bob and Weave outclass everything if you take too much damage)
    Basically you never run Bob and Weave in +15 if you're new to Brew and if you don't have a rdrood to heal you through anything and if your party doesn't kick a lot of spell. (Trell has a really good explanation on the monk discord if you want.)
    I would say that if you're new, you'll play Elixir by default, switch to Bob and Weave if you have a good party/raid and play Dampen Harm if you know what you're doing

    Lvl 45 row, yes Rushing Jade Wind is the best of the best BUT you could mention that you can use (rarely) Exploding keg if you want to cancel some melee (mobs will miss)

    About the rotation :
    That's a good explanation, both solo target and aoe. You just didn't mention the number of targets needed to spinning crane kick. (And also you never use SCK if you have less than 55 energy)
    Yes Purifying brew regulary, but actually you should use it REALLY OFTEN. With the new stagger it is OKAY to purifying below red. I even purify at green on pull to have an extra stack for my shield.
    Actually on the opener what i'm doing is Keg smash + Jade Wind + Puryfing as fast as i can + Celestial Brew as fast as i can

    You could have talked about the 2H vs 1H weapons or how the AoE cap work for brew (For example keg smash have his damaged reduced if you hit more than 5 targets).

    Once again, i truly think the video is good, the explanation is good, you've put efforts into it but it's still not enough to play even casually brew.

    Thanks for video, keep it up i'm sure you can do better.
