Anything need to change ? quite similar to mine. I'm at Act II now. I bring along various armor for different setup. armor around 3k. DPS varies from 2k to 3k. HP varies from 15k to 22k. Damage reduction close to 60%. depends on my intended configuration, max HP means less DPS. |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ May 27 2012, 10:51 PM) it means, if you are dead, you cannot do dps. it is as literal and simple as that. yeah. thanks.so investing in a bit of vit/resistance/mitigation, and/or defensive skill sets, can prove to be useful. case in point, i believe almost every monk that plays beyond nightmare/hell difficulties are running with at least 2-3 defensive skills (obviously elective mode) in their skill set. i personally run with 3 (minus lolsanctum) + a mantra my setup with higher HP (by 5k - 10k) + higher HP per globe (~1k) survives better despite lower dps (about 300 - 500 points lower). spent the last night buffing up my resistance. still balancing out my gears though. Added on May 28, 2012, 12:19 pm QUOTE(Forgotten06 @ May 28 2012, 11:33 AM) I know boon is nerfed, but at least better than no shield at all. But your build is more to damage reduction, might refer to it when my build is no longer effective. oh this one helpful oh. lower level that time i find heal helpful.high level i find heal useless already. boon that one last for 3 - 5 seconds or so but 3 seconds means a lot of damage dealt and a lot of injury reduced. |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ May 28 2012, 12:23 PM) i have 400+ resist to all, pros in inferno run with 600+ to all. thats why i bend over and get my ass raped in inferno it is useful la but i find that serenity gives me chance to run in and hit, if not also can run around.Added on May 28, 2012, 12:27 pm ignore hp globes. in higher difficulty, they come rare and usually only come AFTER the fight is done which is kinda meaningless already to heal. also, heal is as useful as it gets because that's the ONLY thing you got and that is what allows us to even PLAY inferno (that, and immunity bubble of course lulz) compared to barbarians either resorting to forum rage/whine/complain, spec to ranged barb (lol), or reroll a DH/Wiz/WD example, serenity, run in hit get sp, then cast other skills to heal cos i set passive to heal when use sp. i was using heal in NM mode but was tough, till i tried serenity and i like it. now end up the fun part of this game is visit AH. problem is now i low on funds. about 150k left if i sell off my unwanted purchase from the AH Timeout hiccups. Added on May 28, 2012, 5:02 pm QUOTE(ghoss @ May 28 2012, 02:08 PM) go AH search for item same spec also can see already price range.i don't think can sell that good a price. |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ May 28 2012, 05:07 PM) yeah thing is most of us use BOTH heal + serenity because it just aint enough how you use heal + serenity la? both slot 1 leh.if only lolsanctum isn't so retarded, i think we'd end up with all 4 defensives. because melee in hell/inferno are broken, lol. i choose serenity, but now heal depends on 2 + 3 + 4 + globes. yeah melee even in Nightmare also cacat. my worst case was in Hell mode, Act II Road to Arcanus. Encounter those Elite Dune Stingers or whatever. molten some more. run to it, gonna get hit. hit it, gonna get molten also. sheesh. that was one part of the map and that took ages to settle. then later got 1 more, right after talking to the Captain or donno what. i was like WTH!?!? i'm not gonna do that again. but this time i tipu them la, lure them into the camp and let the NPC do the killing. NPC last longer than me anyway. haha. so yes guys, if ever got NPC nearby, lure them baddies to the camp. NPC become decoy, you get to whack the fellas nicely. Added on May 28, 2012, 5:46 pm QUOTE(yuhhaur @ May 28 2012, 05:15 PM) that's why. ehh. i've been relying on dropped goods all the way from Normal to end of Nightmare.OFFTOPIC: my gears all get from AH. dropped item is even worst. The only thing is that it worth only <3k per piece. anything more than 3k is either: 1. too freaking expensive, or 2. beyond my level. now in Act II only starting to get AH stuff. |

yeah. LOL. same here la for the serenity, no sp, die, try again part.
kiting them isn't helpful when the follower is trailing. i was complaining to a friend the other night, I wanted to complete the quest in Act I where you defend against the ancients, it's before entering the Flooded Temple or something. So there I was, kiting, trying to lure the baddies away to kill them 1 by 1 but damn Leah was always trailing and shooting away. So in the end I never got the chance to 1 on 1. Added on May 28, 2012, 6:06 pm QUOTE(Quazacolt @ May 28 2012, 06:01 PM) stand still and give it a try then LOL i never bother. I see illusionist. I stand still, shift + left click. serenity + wind + mantra + seven sided kick + potion and hope to stay alive. |

sure ah? cos that was the only case that I can't separate the mobs into smaller packs because she brought the whole town with her.
sheesh. at least other place I can run around and hit bit by bit but can't seem to do so on that case. Added on May 28, 2012, 6:18 pm QUOTE(izkon @ May 28 2012, 05:53 PM) how can la? I got 30k HP also I still find serenity very useful.3 seconds is enough time to go in, hit a bit to get SP and hopefully get a health globe. or if not, at least allow me to escape the pesky arcane laser, molten (after being vortex), or even some mortar. whichever.......... gives me time to reach or at least, lay a few blows before i kthxbai revive. |

HP was only 31k at that time. Added on May 31, 2012, 5:40 amresistance all sub 100. |

speaking of invulnerable, yesterday I encounter that at Tower of the Damned or whatever. AIhhh, after seeing them at the entrance of the place (first few mobs) - I decided to just run all the way to the exit because fighting them is pointless (1 main boss with invulnerable minion).
And at an earlier point, I encountered those fast moving flying spirits with fire chain. Also decided not to fight them, head straight for Zoltan's body. btw, I didn't realize AH got such nice weapons at 30k Added on May 31, 2012, 1:59 pm QUOTE(Tak3shi @ May 31 2012, 06:51 AM) u no need sleep ar.. my sleep hours cacat wan. |

QUOTE(evofantasy @ May 31 2012, 02:12 PM) when soloing bosses, i would always suggest dual wielding... cause of the bigger damage u needed (my first butcher solo attempt had him enraged at 30% =.=")... but if u wanna dual wield, u would need an equal or better OH weapon which is $.$ yeah, not that easy. i prefer to use shield. the block + stats does help. QUOTE(evofantasy @ May 31 2012, 02:12 PM) act2, u see golden wasp = ragequit lolx k. thanks for the info. i hate wasps!!! but if you're in Act II see wasp in desert on Road to Alcarnus, you can bring wasp into the camp. NPC can help you hit. QUOTE(evofantasy @ May 31 2012, 02:12 PM) some combo are very easy for us especially after u use deadly reach to position nicely and hit the main elite (over his invulnerable minions)... 1. no time to changethe combo which is hard for me is the frozen/ arcane/ molten/ firechain with their minions... the amount of spam they give especially in small spaced areas like cave is jz mindfck lolx... i can almost rage quit when tat happen... 2. no like deadly reach i use hundred fist, and now at lvl 60 there's the rune to allow it to hit with a wave at the last punch. goes quite far across. i alternate between that one and the rune for holy damage. Added on May 31, 2012, 3:39 pm QUOTE(memphiz_zero88 @ May 31 2012, 03:36 PM) oh very good already. i went through Hell mode with only 3k+ dps and 20k+ HP. only reach spire there, 2nd last boss (Tyreal ex-lieutenant) that's when I got fed up, go out buy new weapon for 7.5k dps or so. so i finished Hell mode at 7.5k dps + 30k++ HP or so. |

Life on Hit i used earlier, in normal mode and such. Hell / Nightmare mode, the damage too much. Life on Hit also no use.
I use heal + wind + 7 side + serenity. one thing interesting about this game is that there is NO PERFECT or RIGHT combo as all the skills + runes have their strengths and you can choose go gear then tune skills, or choose skills and find gear..........whichever. for me, if the situation I find it difficult - it's a signal for me to change armor or skill sets, especially the passive skill and rune types. I usually carry 2 types of armor also, one for HP and one for DPS. |

was referring to the game in general la. yes, choices are narrowed but it's still not fixed. There will be variations, and of course logically there are some skills / runes / others that may not be helpful at all to the situation.
and good thing you mentioned about Elective mode the other day. Helped me heaps man, if not for that I don't think I can pass Hell mode. |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ May 31 2012, 04:19 PM) typical passives have seize the initiative, one with everything, resolve etc. finished hell mode with fleet footed, seize the initiative and transcendent. that time no care about OwE already. no my char pokai liao. 8k money left. 7.24k dps only. with 31k hp. i haz bad feeling about Inferno mode. I go try standing with wind around me at New Tristram entrace, also died. LOL. and I thought my death ad Slaughtered Calf or whatever Inn when talking to Leah was LOL enough. |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ May 31 2012, 04:34 PM) my fleet footed was quickly replaced in nightmare. only really used it in normal as i solo. nightmare beyond i almost always (until recently inferno) 100% coop with friends so the dmg scaling from more players really prevented me to play the game half assedly i never even bother using it........... until Tyreal's old friend. no choice. I had to run faster than them if not I die. QUOTE(Quazacolt @ May 31 2012, 04:34 PM) oh and i dont have OwE too, as i find simply gearing gear with "All resistance" does the same shit. few 10's of resist variants wont make or break me. might as well go beacon of ytar for faster cooldowns haha. that's why in the end i don't bother OWE already. put resistance and all, like no effect anyway. |

all resistance is a little tough to find unless you have time and money.
you can consider just going to your details, see whcih one ist he highest resistance. then buy armor based on that highest resistance (in my case, lightning was the highest) then use OwE passive skill to make it all equal to the highest. |
