Oh well that is just for long term investment but yeh rare set is okay. But you will need more stats item after act 3 onwards.

You have to balance your weapon DPS, attack speed and your DEX to get a good base damage.

let say la i lazy to calculate properly.

you have a 700 dps item x 1000 dex = 7k base damage

but what if you increase your dex by 500.

so 700 dps x 1500 dex = 10500 base damage.

*please do note that this does not take account of attack speed items and + damage item.

So nowadays monk in inferno will have the lowest dps weapon would be 900.

so 900 dps x 1500 (this is common dex stat for inferno monk) = 13500

If you prefer to invest more on dex instead of weapon..

900 dps x 2000 = 18k damage.

but if you prefer better weapon over dex item

1100 dps x 1500 (common dex stat) = 16500 base damage

if you had both good weapon and stat over 2k dex

1100 dps x 2000 = 22k base damage.

---------------------------------------------------------------

This is just an example. You have to take note of attack speed item too. They increase your damage a lot. So with about 1.1k weapon + 1500 dex + aspd + damage ite = yes you can get more then 20k base damage.

dex really play a big big part in dps.. mine only 1.2k dps atm.. gotta pump it hopefully up to 1500-1800? start sourcing from AH today rclxub.gif

thanks bro.. appreciated ur presentation on the calculation of dps thumbup.gif

hmm.gif  hmm.gif how come your equipment is not focuse on only 1 type of element resistance?
i saw lighting, poision (mostly) , arcane, and physical.. ....  hmm.gif

Just my own preferences... i preffer my amor and pants with soket..
the reason is because I can adjust / play around my dex or vit .. base on gem..
my turn need suggestion on Act 3 .. T.T

not yet fully upgrade tongue.gif but u know what my dilemma is? ok lets look at a few example:

1) My helm +75dex +71vit +29 lightning res +43 all resist +8% life..
- i hardly can find sth better than my current helm's attributes, either its darn expensive or it doesnt have my main element of resistance which is the poison resistance..

2) My boots +73dex +34 arcane res +57 all resist
- also the +57 all resist is sweet... if i can find poison resist to replace the arcane resist i will replace em biggrin.gif will look for + higher dex and + vit for future boots

3) My bracers +81dex +121 vit
- cant find any that match the +vit and +dex with high poison/all resistance.. bracers are sooooo expensive rclxub.gif will keep a lookout thou..

4) my belt +76dex +44 physical resist +35all resist +5%life
- wanna replace this with higher dex with +poison resistance but cant source for one with +5% life or with +vit.. anyway still will keep sourcing..

5) Armor +143 dex +163 vit +36 poison resistance
- wanna find sth with socket but with the high dex and high vit already built in this armor.. even after +gems also cant match the current attributes of my armor so didnt bother to change..

6) my glove +85 dex +48 poison res +66 all resist
- wanna find sth with +atk speed but with so high combined resistance... so hard to find similiar to that..

so above will be the items that i want to change.. if i replaced the above resistance (those in red) to my main element resistance.. can boost my resistance by 107 to 707 thumbup.gif

so guys, any other things besides the above that is crucial for me to change?

even if i allocate 1mil gold for each item change also need 6mil gold rclxub.gif now only got 25% of it.. still got 75% where to find

i saw a friend, life per hit 600 on his leg but to play like this, really is trading off your attack for life per hit

Bump your resistance. At ~600 resist and ~6k armor you should be able to quite comfortably fight til Magda.

Past Magda is a different story, though icon_idea.gif

Hi fellow monks,

I'm level 59 monks in Act 3 Hell mode currently. With roughly 4.5k DPS, 222 res, 4kish armor, all unbuff. So I kena rape left and right if fighting elites and I'm sure it is because of my gears. But I'm willing to tahan a bit until lvl 60 to buy new gear.

So with low budget, I mean really low, 700k ish only..what item to get first to get me starting Inferno Act 1?

Bump DPS first? Raise res and armor first?

Thanks
*
depends on whether u wanna invest long term or not, as in gear up to clear inferno act 1..

if just wanna finish hell, raise ur dps will do.. my sucky gf/mf gear with 100+ res and 4kish armor can do siegebreaker runs easy peasy tongue.gif with dps around 8-9k shud be able to breeze through hell..

unless u wanna do a one time investment up to inferno act 1, then consider investing a bit more on res as well..

just my 2 cents, let the real monk sifus to advice notworthy.gif
