One of the most well-received additions to the game during Mists of Pandaria was the Monk class. Mists was the first expansion to introduce a new race (Pandaren) and a new class (Monk), and to this day the Monk remains one of the most intuitive and intriguing classes in WoW, especially from a gameplay standpoint.

With a Healer, Tank, and DPS spec, Monk is an incredibly diverse class, capable of filling multiple roles in your party. And when you play a Monk, you’ll find that the mechanics and skills required to master the class are largely different from many other archetypes in WoW.

The cool thing about MoP Remix is that you’re not limited to the original race/class combinations that were available in the OG version of Mists of Pandaria when it first released back in 2012. If you want, you can play through all of the Mists content in the context of WoW as it is today, meaning you can use classes like Evokers and Demon Hunters while playing through the MoP questing experience. Additionally, the Mists expansion’s use of modern WoW mechanics means that you can also use allied races and new additions to WoW’s racial lineup that have come to the game since 2012.

MoP Remix is the best time to play a new Monk character in WoW, but you might be struggling to choose the best race for your endeavors. While race choice is extremely marginal when it comes to overall effects and benefits, there are still some advantages. Here are the best Monk races in World of Warcraft Mists of Pandaria Remix.
