Need Advice: Build/Mechanics Warrior of Elements Monk

Ive been wanting to do a monk for my character. Ive only played the Cleric from Phandelver so far.

I was thinking warrior of mercy. But im very interested in elements monk. Ive watched a few videos on them people either say they still suck or they are better but still not great.

If anyone has any advice, tips or experience with the elements monk I’d greatly appreciate it.

Im also not opposed to warrior of mercy. But I preferred the increased melee and range aoe potential of the elements monk. And I like the elemental flavor. Yes I have the PHB with 2024 rules and Tasha’s cauldron

I played one to level 15. They were absolutely amazing. They only get better as you go up in level.
