Let's Talk MoP Beta

I'm interested in hearing about how the Monk plays. I realize the playstyle is probably going to go through a lot of iterations before release, but still. Fun? Boring? Annoying?

Fun so far. They seem powerful.

You have 4 chi points you can acquire, so sort of like a rogue. You use certain moves to build Chi, then you can use certain moves that require 1, 2 3, or 4 Chi to use them.

Monks appear to be more hybrid like druids, and you can choose three different flavors. More of a tank build, which is then limited to single weapon wield. A DPS build, which has more martial arts skills. Or, a healing build which gains a mana bar (and you still have Chi bar too), and is again single wield. I have one monk which is DPS build, then I also built a sword and board warrior, and a shadow priest. Hopefully, we can build up a group to go run some instances.
