Love all the advice that boils down to "don't experiment, don't explore, don't have fun, here is the formula to make you the same as every other monk. You're welcome." Non-sarcastic question, DOES anyone actually enjoy "gearing by numbers" here? Like just making an checklist of drops from wiki and then afk raiding until you get them? Because of the goal is to rush to endgame BiS... the immediate step after that is stop playing the character, so why not just skip straight to that step and uninstall the game??

Patches tend to throw a wrench into the gears, whether on purpose or by accident. As others have pointed out, what was true several years ago isn't true anymore which won't remain true in the years ahead.

People like to say that this game has been solved, discovered, etc. because it's mostly accurate but they aren't accounting for the mundane details that can and do make a world of difference. Over time new ways of doing things become the standard until newer ways are found or restrictions put in place as a result. It's a game of cat and mouse, developer and player.
