Soul Dance is a level 100 monk talent, available only to Brewmaster monks, added in Warlords of Draenor.

History

Soul Dance was introduced with in Patch 6.0.2 as a passive ability that would provide a simple additional magic damage mitigation tool powered by maintenance of [Shuffle]. Unlike [Chi Explosion] and [Serenity] which changed the Brewmaster rotation somewhat, Soul Dance effectively allowed the Brewmaster to continue using the same rotation he or she would have used in Tier 16. Soul Dance was nonetheless generally considered inferior to [Serenity] in most of the raid encounters of Tier 17, although it found a niche in encounters with heavy magic damage such as Flamebender Ka'graz.

The arrival of Patch 6.2.0 was not kind to Soul Dance. While Soul Dance itself was not modified, the reduction of Brewmasters' base [Stagger] from 30% to 20% and the removal of the Stagger-increasing component of [Blackout Kick] were strong indirect nerfs to what was already considered the weakest talent in the row.
