Haven't seen any monks in act3 or 4 with such low dps. Lowest is probably around 13-15k unbuffed. Use the damage multiplier runes to help boost the damage and probably get it up near to 20k.

First time hearing monks stacking STR equips.

I'm already stacking DEX/VIT/AR/FR equips. Don't really think stacking STR is a wise choice. Just my opinion though

QFT

Next thing you know, major monkey nerf.

Offering services to kill Inferno bosses. Belial 200k, Azmodan 400k, Diablo 700k.

Just sit back, relax, collect your loot and get your achievement

My post nerf gear setup and stats before and after damage multiplier buffs.

Considering to change my current chest piece (301 Dex) with Tal Rasha's Chest piece. (150 Dex 6% attack speed increased). Any ideas? No damage calculator so I don't know which is better. LOL!!

10m+ for the chest. Don't want to risk it lol!!

All bosses are on farm mode. Can even carry people killing inferno diablo.

Yea will look for someone selling slightly cheaper and try it out. Worse case just resell that piece LOL!!!

No idea man. Some of the items are probably worth $50-$250 on RMAH. Some I bought from GAH 15-30m a piece.

Actually trying to replace my LOH accessories with crit rate/ crit dmg items. At the moment 700 LOH enough for me to kill all inferno bosses.

32470 -> 32316 DPS after slotting all my +50 gems to the tal rasha chest

Attacks per second increased from 1.66 to 1.76.

Give me back my 2.0 attack speed.

nice sb and bo

rather use my money on crit rate/ crit dmg/ IAS combination.

Kill it before it blows.

Earth ally has been my best mate since act2 till now. Good to use as a decoy and a tank while i burn the mobs. My preferred companion is the enchantress for the armor and attack speed buff.

Never had issues with gaining spirit. Gaining spirit very fast using thunderclap. A must have since alot of mobs run away when you hit them. My attack speed is around 1.7 now iirc and I only spam my mantra of conviction. I don't know if all allies has a default stat or it depends on the hero itself but my earth ally doesn't die much. He can even tank azmodan with me while standing inside his pool of blood.

The stats look decent to clear act3 and 4. Maybe you can try to replace Inner Sanctuary with Earth Ally? Helps a lot really.

Deadly reach is useful too, can always hold shift and hit the bosses from behind the wall.

My 2 cents on monk end game dual wielding.

Tested it yesterday on my character. Holding a 1k DPS first with IAS and a 900 DPS sword with IAS and LOH.

Killing elites or bosses were fun with high attack speed and LOH but the downside was if you get mobbed then you will probably die.

Still prefer a shield for the damage blocked, block rate, armor and resistance for better survivability for my act3 and 4 farming as I can just run into big group of mobs and down them without a problem.

Damage and total HP is OK but you need more resistance, maybe up to 700+. If possible, get a shield with 3700-4700 blocked amount also.
