As a Mistweaver, I've found this talent useful for high-movement encounters (mainly raids, where this is pretty much guaranteed to heal at least a few bystanders). And it's free!

This would be better if it didn't REPLACE Roll. Roll is a better ability when it comes to which I'd use to go around Orgrimmar or cities with because it looks EPIC! I love roll, Chi Torpedo obviously has more use when in combat, running away, healing yourself as you go or healing others or damaging, yadda yadda, but it shouldn't replace Roll entirely. Let us have both, but on a gcd. I prefer Roll. Chi Torpedo just looks stupid when you're using it just to move further like when questing.

Chi Torpedo has a disadvantage over Roll because of the fact that you can't Chi Torpedo through neutral mobs without pulling aggro

Comment by Garroda

Chi Torpedo has no use as Windwalker.

In PvP, you will be using Roll either to get in melee range or to get away from an enemy. Using it as a pure damage spell will put you a few yards out of melee range of the enemy, and that is never good.

In PvE, you will be using Roll as a movement ability only. Chi Torpedo is a DPS loss, even in AoE fights.

Chi Torpedo breaks СС in PvP, be careful.

Comment by Tresjin

If Chi Burst is Hadouken, Chi Torpedo is Psycho Crusher.

It should be noted that while Roll moves you a distance of around 15yd, Chi Torpedo is closer to 25yd. Easily demonstrated by standing still and using torpedo. Then turning around, unlearning torpedo and trying to roll back to your original position.

Edit: With 5.4.0 this is finally mentioned in the tooltip.

Does Chi Torpedo heal the user?

Comment by TheFartMaster

So Roll can be used two or three times depending on the talents you have chosen, and takes 15 seconds to recharge, does this apply to Chi Torpedo as well? Given that it moves you an extra 10 yards I'm curious about that (Not level 90 yet). Also, whats wrong with Darrla's comment about wanting both Roll and Chi Torpedo, but share the same cooldown?

Comment by wulfmojo

While Chi Torpedo should never normally be used as Brewmaster (tanks aren't normally supposed to be jumping around the place) there are a couple of high-mobility boss fights in MoP in which it could be considered useful to be healing yourself while moving. On both Will of the Emperor and Garalon (if soaking Furious Swipe) you will be frequently repositioning yourself and taking a lot of damage. In these cases you may find adding a self-heal to your mobility useful.

Comment by tygrey

very useful for some fights especially as brewmaster, since it scales with attack power you can be healing for 50k per person per chi torpedo during heavy dmg phases like iron qon ground smash and can out damage xuen on aoe fights (ritualists before dark animus or trash before iron qon) . not useful for pvp as windwalker.

PSYCHO CRUSHER!

Comment by jjanchan

I wanted to see what this ability looked like in action, so I found a nice video here. Thanks to Ciphur Gaming.

Comment by Taraezor

For anyone wishing to use a GetSpellCharges() in an AddOn in order to manage the display and timing of your Chi Torpedo / Roll, use Roll to obtain correct charge data. Thus GetSpellCharges(109132) will do the trick just nicely.

This comment is relevant to AddOn and Macro authors.

Comment by bjmurphy

Just used this right as I got to the bottom of the stairs coming down right before you enter Feng the Accursed's room in Mogu'shan Vaults, and it launched me about 100 yards forward for some reason (almost right into the middle of Feng's circular platform). Never seen anything like this happen with this ability before...

It's treason, then...

Comment by Ellinorake

Fun fact: As of writing this it's possible to use this ability while in spirit form. Can be somewhat helpful to reach your corpse a bit quicker.

Comment by Kiyoine

Just learned today that this ability is useable while dead ... which was very appreciated during my 1000y+ corpse run in Dustwallow Marsh.
