2 ways of building an end game monk i think.

- life on hit with attack speed build
- crit rate, crit damage without atack speed

unless you have unlimited gold and $ to spend on accessories with LOH, IAS, Crit rate and damage then you can choose one of the above. smile.gif

OH YEAH BABY

Damn son, this fight was hard as HELL. Took like 40-50k in repair costs before finally kicking his ass.

Grats! That fat ass got buffed after 1.03. I tried him myself a few days ago and found it troublesome also.

Guys , is life on hit nerfed on recent patch? sad.gif
*
Nope. Still the same. Only attack speed was nerfed, hence your attack speed is lower and lesser LOH.

If you think you have good enough resistance, block and dodge to handle damage from groups of mobs then go ahead and dual wield. If not then stick back to Mr Reliable shield.

at inferno, what is considered "good enough"? 400? 500? 600 range?  hmm.gif

Depends which act are doing. Haven't tried act1 and 2 after patch 1.03 so I'm not sure. I have around 800 resistance doing act3 and 4, sufficient for me to take continuous mortar damage (with 900+ LOH) and enough time for me to move out from green/red shit on the floor.


Added on June 28, 2012, 7:27 pmReplaced Earth Ally with Sweeping Wind (Cyclone). Together with MOC Submission it is the best AOE skill for raping maps with lots of mobs like Act3 Machines of War up till Azmodan.

aye. same with me. however my first inferno gear purchase was a disaster as i only purchased resist poison only and did not stack all resist + resist poison. cry.gif

i sent my monk to vacation while i played witch doctor, demon hunter and barbarian.
i play monk again after retiring demon hunter at level 60 while purchasing new gear for me monk.

deng 9k armor and 900 all resist sakit in act3 after ghom also? dafuq? O_O
need 10k armor and 1k all resist ke?

my monk now should have 8k armor and 800 all resist.
*
Should stop when you have around 700-800 resist and 7k armor. That's what I have. Once you reach that then start increasing your damage instead. You can have 1.3k resist 13k armor but still can't clear inferno cause your damage will be too low.

act2 how much dps u suggest?
*
I didn't try act 1 or 2 after 1.03 patch so I don't know how easy it is now. I was using a 1k dps blue sword with IAS till midway act4 I think before the patch.

I guess if you can reach 15k unbuffed then act2 should be no issues.

No way near his stats man. If I replaced all my LOH gears with IAS, CR, CD gears then maybe. Probably have to spend all my gold and RMAH profit for those.

Happy with my current 70k dps. Already clearing act3 like its act1 pre1.03 patch.

This is sad, so much excitement for legendary items sad.gif I personally think the word 'Legendary' seems so much overrated in Diablo, been getting bout 5 legendaries, but all are rubbish, feels like salvaging them.  Of all the legendary items, only a few are quite effective, IMO, Storm Shield, Ouroboros Amulet and maybe Andariel's Visage.

Btw, I'm thinking of stacking Elemental resists, currently i'm stacking Arcane + Elemental, wonder if there's any particular elemental resists that provides more than the other?
*
That is so true. Not many legendaries are worth selling at all. I end up equipping all my companions with legendary 1h, shield and 2h crossbow. tongue.gif

Swapped my Mantra of Conviction to Mantra or Evasion (Blacklash). Clearing mobs much faster than Submission together with Sweeping Wind (Cyclone). Currently 42k dps unbuffed. 74k with Breath and Binding Flash.

Yeah I agree with MoE (Backlash). So uber especially if u have high dodge. My dodge around 78% bomb those suckers to smitherins!  Of course that is if you can afford to sacrifice 20% armor given by Hard Armor.

BTW which sweeping wind rune does the most dmg?  I kinda like the fire one which also increases radius.
*
My dodge isn't really that high. Just 47.3% now.

My crit chance is 39.50% and crit damage is +266% so when backlash procs and crits it deals around 30-40k damage to all around me. Paired with sweeping wind, it should be the fastest way to clear mobs as a monk. Totally ridiculous damage as I can lure few groups at Rakkis Crossing and clear them in few seconds.

Mind to post your stat in text? Dex, Vit, HP etc.

You dps is pumped by the overall critical chance & critical damage? or pure high DPS? i'm assuming u are 1H weap with shield?
*
Used to have around 2500 Dex and 50k hp before 1.03 patch. Was focusing on LOH instead last time. Slowly moving into the IAS/CR/CD build now. Got 1801 Dex 1067 Vit now. You can add me and view the gears and my base stats if you want. Lazy to screenshot my gears again.

and his stats (though that time was barely under 70k) was posted few pages back, just "show post only by this user" on flix

Tested dual wielding but prefer my shield with 76 extra resistance, 9% crit chance and almost 200 Dex.

i see...

well if i dont require a shield, i'd personally prefer both weapons for the much faster swings so i can mantra activate more haha 3 sec(with latency compensation about 2 ish sec only utilization sad.gif )

Dual wield should be better if you plan to farm act1 since you won't be taking much damage. Unlimited spirit for mantra spamming! thumbup.gif

Never bothered much about armor and resistance. My resist is around 700 and armor around 6k+ with 40k+ HP. Rather spend what I have to increase my DPS instead of thinking about defensive stats now that they make it so freaking easy to farm act3 and 4 after 1.03.

No problemo smile.gif

Should be much easier now after Ghom. Myself I prefer to farm starting at Machines of War and kill everything up to Azmodan.

You guys think my dps is the problem?

Up your resist to around 700. If you are using dual wield in act3 then you might want to consider getting a shield. Dual is only suitable for act1 and 2 farming unless you got uber gears.

After more than 1 month of playing... finally defeated Inferno's Diablo... slow, ya. But totally worth it.

Still have troubles with some elites, but managed to slowly move my way to Diablo in Act 4.

Nothing fancy in my build, no Life on Hit at all. No massive critical. No super duper expensive item. Just plain poison+all resist, stock up to 800++. Rely on Keen Eye to bring armor up to 9k. For solo in Act4, I uses Mantra of Evasion with 20% armor. So, my damage reduction is quite high. My HP is just 25k. Favorite passive is Trancendance. Spam Mantra to keep HP up. Fun. Weapon = 1k fist weapon, DPS=23k.

I almost faint when it comes to shopping for my monk. If only I can search for 5 stats my life would be easier.

Any sifu here that has around 800resist, 30k HP and 30k dps everything unbuff. Got full gear image and stat to share? I just wanna put in my desktop and use it as guideline when I go shopping. I downloaded a few that I found in google but those is for rich fella. Each piece is guaranteed over 50m.

Here's mine with blinding flash (30%) and breath of heaven (15%) multiplier on. Damage before buff and enchantress is 47138.

wow 2.03 attacks per sec with axe ...

1.6k dex only too ... i guess +crit chance/dmg is the way to go?

Yup, massive dex doesn't give me that much damage. Previously had 2600 dex which gave me only 30k+ base damage. IAS, CR, CD is the way to go.
