It deals less damage – generally AT LEAST 500-1000 DPS below Kyrian under ideal conditions.Night Fae is the least-popular Brewmaster Monk Covenant for a variety of reasons: Night Fae: Faeline Harmony & Stormstout's Last Keg.If tuning wildly changes from testing to live servers and defensive requirements skyrocket, then Necrolord will be a great choice, otherwise: Nah. It's still totally viable, but Bountiful Brew is incredibly undertuned and inconsistent, and the Covenant in general doesn't add any utility you aren't getting from other Covenants. Necrolord was just surprisingly underwhelming in Sepulcher of the First Ones testing. In terms of defensive value, Necrolord is slightly tankier than Kyrian in raids, but not by enough to justify running it instead. I'll go into further detail about the failures of this setup in the Mythic+ section, but just wanted to include this to be complete. Necrolord: Bountiful Brew & Stormstout's Last Keg.It can be exploited to deal lots of damage with a lot of support and setup, but even still, it’s kind of a boring power. It makes your burst damage a little burstier, which is cool, but yeah, it’s not great. On average, it’s worth about 5% more total damage on the low end.

Basically, you will need to stagger your Invoke Niuzao, the Black Ox casts until after the free Invoke Niuzao, the Black Ox from Weapons of Order has expired. After one of them casts Stomp, the damage buff is cleared, so the next one will just deal base damage. The Invoke Niuzao, the Black Ox summoned by Call to Arms and a regular Invoke Niuzao, the Black Ox add CAN exist at the same time, but they will fight each other for Purified Stagger value. There's also the issue of using Invoke Niuzao, the Black Ox at the same time as Weapons of Order. This Legendary’s value is kind of all over the place, and it promotes taking more damage to deal more damage, which isn’t… a great philosophy (not that I don’t stare off toward the horizon and yearn to play Brewmaster Monk during Siege of Orgrimmar again from time to time).

You could hold Weapons of Order until you taunt back, but depending on encounter timings, this may result in losing a cast, which would almost certainly not be worth it.

That’s great in Mythic+, but in raids, taunt-swaps are common enough that you may not get the full offensive value of a free Invoke Niuzao, the Black Ox each time Weapons of Order comes off cooldown. When you’re taking a ton of damage, that makes this Legendary’s damage contribution pretty decent. Invoke Niuzao, the Black Ox is contingent on Purifying Staggered damage in order to maximize his damage with Stomp. Now for the downside, Call to Arms does not add consistent damage. On top of this, the new tier 4-piece bonus synergizes beautifully with Weapons of Order, and has no real synergy with any other Covenant ability. Kyrian is the most consistent Covenant overall. All four Covenants are defensively solid for Brewmaster Monk in raids. Kyrian is the default Brewmaster Monk setup for a simple reason: It does the most damage.

Kyrian: Call to Arms & Stormstout's Last Keg.
