^ Thanks for the info .


But I'm going to be the "dare to be different" people will use dual wield to clear .

So far able to fight elites in act 1 . Tonight going for leoric which I think no problem. Then try solo butcher.

Will update you when I try/cleared act2.

Using shield to tank is good when you're in party as the mobs hit harder

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 last time I hunt for Mace 60k with about 300 dmg also I happy already, last night got 700 dmg for 30k only. should've gotten them earlier, make my life a lot easier.

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 $.$

act2, u see golden wasp = ragequit lolx

Added on May 31, 2012, 2:15 pmsome combo are very easy for us especially after u use deadly reach to position nicely and hit the main elite (over his invulnerable minions)...

the 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...

you have lolsanctum? lol

wasp is 1 hit KO right ?

2-3 hit...
jz that they are so many of them and the other 3-4 abilities from the elite trait will jz make it impossible to kill them in time...

dayum ~~ like that need to run in when cooldown is ready

the aoe blink is the best way to find an opening...
that is also why i am having deadly reach with my build...

What's the AoE ? I macam never use before

i used to be like you doing something like:

but since inferno, i took an arrow to the knee yada yada:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk...;XVZ!ZaYaba

my passive for a while was guardian's path (15% on dual wielding)
however on some bullshit elite/rare mobs with bullshit attributes, i have no choice but to put on shield, and swapping skill with nephalem valor is a huge waste. so took resolve instead.

Inferno = Need survivability first then only focus on DPS

you said it yourself.

why else we all going shields? lol

Get defensive stats from other place

unless you have perfect latency (under 100, impossible due to geographical reasons) and are already running in an angle, taking 1 hit means taking the rest of the 3-4 hits and they cannot be dodged (died tried a lot, around 60% dodge on my solo dps gear). per hit to my current tanking gear (around 6k armor and 500+ avg all resist) is 10-15k per hit

:/

cant imagine how hard is it gonna be for inferno.. im just in Hell Act 1 and kinda use 2 tabs as defensive skill d.. at inferno i think need all 3 tabs defensive skill and 1 tab of coz mantra

god bless me i gotta hunt for some really really good items now!!

eh not blink, blind i mean lolx...
it is really important as a CC

Hell is easy, just get a 500 DPS weapon, 30K HP and you're good.

The gap between Hell and Inferno is

blinding flash?

omg...i js went to hell n it's omgwtfbbq de...inferno confirm gg...lolx

really?

mine now got 8k dps with 30k hp. can survive hell?

yeah, not that easy. i prefer to use shield. the block + stats does help.



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.

1. no time to change
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 pmoh 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. by that time my HP was around 30k-35k

so i finished Hell mode at 7.5k dps + 30k++ HP or so.
