SERENITY vs STORM EARTH & FIRE when and where to use? | Windwalker Monk | Dragonflight Season 4

y boys ddb here today we're going to be going over a question that's the a fair bit which is Serenity versus Storm Earth and fire also known as Sith we're going to look at the positive and negatives of both and where you can use them in both M plus and raiding all right let's get into it but first we're going to have a look at serenity serenity is one of our major cool downs and there's three components to this spell first we're going to be dealing 15% damage whilst it's active second is all Chi consumers are free which means we can cast as many Rising Sun kicks and Fist of Fury and blackout kicks as possible without needing to build up Chi last is our Chi Spenders cool down 100% more quickly which again will be things like our Rising Sun kick Fist of Fury Etc the spell lasts 12 seconds but can be paired with talents like drinking horn cover which extends the duration of our Serenity by3 every time we cast a cheese Spender so the talent is more of a press it and do big damage whilst pressing a lot of Rising Sun kicks fist Furies Etc uh you'll notice that it's a cool down that doesn't line up with our zoen though so that's not good you're going to want to try to pair this with Zen as much as possible though due to the talent invoker Delight which basically gives us a blood lust when we press headu in for 20 seconds there will be times when you'll want to use these two separately though as it requires a bit of thought behind it an example of this would be you're doing an N plus pool and you have syen up but not the zoen uh you're about to go into a big pool but you know you need the zoen for the actual boss fight maybe it's tyrannical uh but you don't want to press it Midway into the pack whilst like pretty much everything is dead and then it's like a a bad CD usage so instead you just press the serenity on the pack uh assuming you know it's going to last a while and then by the time you get to the boss you have zoen ready and you'll have your Serenity coming up soon with Serenity you can make a macro to add a bunch of stuff into it as the uh second you press it you're going to be doing quite a lot of damage instantly I like to add things like my trinkets my pots and my Ral to this in raiding your goal with this is going to be fire offing as many Rising Sun kicks as possible and then weaving Fist of Fury for the talent Zen's Battle Gear buffing of Rising Sun kicks uh for 4 seconds in an imp plus scenario for tres pool you're going to want to be pressing as many fist as Furies as possible with this up whilst also pressing spinning crane kicks in between and in between the spinnings you're going to be pressing blackout kicks one because of our Mastery and two because with the talent Shadow Boxing Treads we're able to apply a mark of the crane to multiple targets be aware that the targets that you're going to be hitting with the extra black out kicks is based on your positioning though so you're going to want to try to move around a bit when pressing black out kicks to try to get the five stacks of the crane up ASAP another thing to be careful with Serenity or even raiding for that matter is it's very front loaded meaning the second you press it you're going to be doing Big Dam so you want to give the tank a bit of time before you go ham unless you want to be a a smear on the floor pretty much remember you can't do Big Dam if you're dead on the floor so where should you be using this mainly raiding as friend performs best on single Target encounters which obviously in raiding there's always a chunky boss to deal with and M plus mainly there's just mob PS there obviously is bosses but yeah the majority of it is Mob Poes so now let's have a look at the stormur and fire Talent so again with stor and fire it's one of our major cool Downs when you press it you're going to be splitting into three Elemental Spirits for 15 seconds uh you being one of them and the other two will be like mirror images of yourself this will also split your damage into three whilst also giving you a slight buff for every Spirit including yourself this is 42% of your normal damage meaning this will add up to around 126% uh effectively you will have 26% more damage increased whilst every spirit's active these spirits will mimic every damaging ability you cast such as your Rising Sun kick fist to Fury Etc once you cast stor from fire you're going to have a new icon in its place that will allow you to control what the spirits are hitting meaning for example you can send them over to a Target far away uh whilst you stay on your like the boss Etc you're currently hitting splitting your damage but meaning you don't have to travel as far to get to them something to note with this though is as soon as the targets that your spirits hitting dies they will kind of become in like a confused state and they'll just kind of stand around for a few seconds not doing anything so you'll need to refocus them onto another Target aslp otherwise you'll be just losing damage as you'll be the only one dealing damage which is the 42% uh and you'll end up losing effectively 84% damage from the other two Spirits not doing anything they also have a bit of travel time if the target is far away meaning if you uh use a cast if they're flying over they won't cast the ASAP again we use the talent drinking horn cover which will give us a higher up time on storm up and fire you notice that we also have two charges for this Talent uh meaning it can be a bit more flexible with it when pressing it or saving it uh for when we know we're going to be doing a big Dam similar to Serenity we want to pair this cool down with zoen as much as possible because of Zen's battle gearing giving us a small blood loss for 20 seconds T I also suggest running with SEF if you'll know you're going going to be pressing spinning crane kit a lot is bone dust Brew this will allow it so we can spin a lot more often due to the chees refunds uh storm and Fire doesn't have infinite Che like Serenity does you also have to weave in Tiger Palms in between this because of obviously you have to gain cheetah press spinning crane kick also try not to overcap on charges and try be pressing them when you have bone dust Brew ready in in plus I would recommend you stay away from macing anything into the spells like trinkets racials etc for one big reason and then plus the way we use storm of from fire is different to Serenity so when you first activate storm and fire they aren't focused onto anything one given Target until you press the uh the button again to focus them onto your focus Target so what will happen when you press this and press a button like Tiger Palm is you will hit the target with your that you're hitting for Tiger Palm whilst they'll go off and hit other targets they do this due to them trying to apply Mark of the crane as many to as many targets as possible so you can take advantage of this within your first two to three Global cooldowns when pressing stor from fire your first couple of spell should always be something like a tiger Palm into a fist a thunder fist into another Tiger Palm this will ensure you have five stacks of Mark with the crane active and the moment you have done this you can throw down your like bone dust Brew uh you'll pop your trinkets uh and then you'll Focus the spirits onto your desired Target and start fist of furing and spamming spinning cran kicks you're going to want to try to position the spirits in a way that they would hit as much as possible in a pack if you're focusing them onto a Target on the edge of a pack they might be hitting the other targets that's slightly further out uh so try to position them in a way that they're always in the middle of the pack able to hit as many things as possible in a rating scenario will be a bit different as you can press them ASAP and they'll just focus on the boss assuming there's no ad spawns on PO um if ads do spawn around the room as long as you've pressed the button again for storm from fire they won't actually go off and Target anything else but the boss another good thing about this is they work weirdly with aggro as the spirits themselves w't actually have like a threat table as they actually aren't hitable or killable meaning it'll be very hard for you to pull aggro in any way on M plus or in raing when they're up as you're technically only doing 40 42% of the uh of your normal damage so where should be using St from fire it's mainly using them Plus for the flexibility of the two charges and the extra burst with a slight bump over Serenity by around 9% um they also last a little bit longer for raiding majority of the time you won't be using this as it's just a slight single Target decrease compared to Serenity uh but if there's any big fights with like ads example would be like brood keeper or dafia from Vault of the incarnates uh you can definitely use Seth to your advantage on the as long as you're designated to the uh ad group killing party so I will say you can use both of these in any content if you want they're not miles apart to the point it'll be considered inting picking one over the other so if you do prefer say Serenity in most scenarios uh as I know a lot of people do Kang using it in both raids and in plus that about wraps it up with this one if you have any further comments about anything be sure to ask down below I'll try to answer ASAP but if you've enjoyed the video consider subscribing and liking thanks again guys catch you in the next one peace
