Chi Burst is a monk ability granted by the [Chi Burst] talent.

Notes

  • Each hit from this ability has a separate chance to reset [Jadefire Stomp], which leads this ability to have a high reset chance overall.
  • Brewmasters can still dodge while casting this ability - in other words, cast it without the usual penalty of not being able to dodge while casting.
  • For windwalkers, this ability generates the Chi resource, unlike Chi Wave.
