1 i think same
2. i take the increase SP by 100% so i can roundhouse kick more often with mobs
3 ehhh i donno i have yet or not, i think not yet.

weapon wise I dual-wield.

willing to go for lower DPS weapon for those with more stats boost that give better total HP.

my equipment and accessories are focused on +exp.

have to configure based on party.

solo i find la, very nice to knock back.

i don't use function #2 (rush) and the skills in generally.

i use the seven point donno whatchamacallit vs mobs. after whack already he'll be at center. the moment the skill is over, do a roundhouse push everything.

donno die how many times testing out skill.

i think my LOL time was when I was testing out weaker weapon and come by Act I boss.

ehh i beat Act 2 end boss very easily at lvl 24. biggrin.gif 1 try only, never die also. keep whacking away only. my DMG at that time is about 67 or 77 only. health about 1.3k.

in fact other earlier bosses killed my character. some minion mobs also did. Act I boss also nearly killed my character many times. Belial on the other hand was just brainless, literally!

unlike normal RPG where you pump your own stats, D3 stats are default, so only our luck (and decision) with weapons and accessories determines our fate.

btw.......... why your Monk run around? tongue.gif

*spoiler below - something i discovered, good for easy take down of Belial. hehe.

^ okies thanks bro i guess i will try that out in nightmare mode and see.


oh btw before i started using morphling (water) mystic ally i was using rufus body fat suction move.

i would,

1. flying kick in (dash + flying kick rune)
2. body suction them in
3. chuck norris roundhouse kick them away


tapi now i just use normal attack saja lulz.
the "deadly reach" with +50% to armor rune.

then further boost damage +15% for 45 seconds with healing spell.

You're doing it wrong.. if I'm partying, I'll use cyclone to suck in a bunch of mobs. Spams AOE and finished the mobs with full hp cool2.gif . I'll only use lashing tail on bosses or to cancel mobs with channeling skills. It'll interrupt their channeling.

And if you have 'Transcendence' passive, spam lashing tail to heal rapidly.

Monk = AOE crowd control, buffer, healer, tanker - if you're built correctly and a good player of course icon_rolleyes.gif

once you level 26.. forge on fist (which damage is quite high)...
and focus to +dex, most my equipment got +dex , many time belial try to hit me. it miss a lot rclxm9.gif (or is it because serenity skill?)
also have some +vit item so that when healed, can hold up before the cool down complete.
Not sure if you are lucky or not, for my case I found amulet or ring that add bunch of vit or dex (20~30) which is helpful.

here some share for the state.. not sure if its good or not though blush.gif

my current lvl32 monk

basically use Cyclone Strike to draw in, Breath of Heaven for damage and healing, Sweeping Kick for massive AoE DoT, Crippling Wave for damage/speed reduction and AoE attack, and Lashing Tail Kick for interrupt.

Using Chant of Resonance, Guardian Path and Seize the Initiative

So far I have 50% damage resistance, 35.5% dodge and 463.55 damage and around 2.4k hp unbuffed

my monk lv 24.. currently my build is

left mouse: crippling wave (1st rune) / way of hunred fist (1st rune) for boss
right mouse: cyclone strike (1st rune)

1st slot : BoH
2nd slot : sweeping wind
3rd slot : Mystic Ally
4th slot: evasion mantra

the gameplay is i use cyclone strike to suck all nerby enemies and use sweeping wind while hitting with crippling wave to gain total AoE.. and change to single hit for boss fight

now im think whether i should focus on MF item on the run or just equip the best i can get

if using fist weap/1h weap my dmg is around 3k after buff. hmm my weap is polearm or spear , daibo got better attackspeed than polearm.

simple rules to stack up damage for monk , get dex , ruby jewel on weapon (+ xx dmg - xx dmg ) , or high + xx dmg - xx dmg stat

thanks! i reached level 25 with <100 dmg total weapons but i focus on exp gaining.

one thing sucky about Diablo is they don't tell you how which stat advantage which part of the character. sad.gif I play RO, INT is for MATK. VIT is for HP / DEF. so on so forth. This one ah, I donno head or tail and, some more the comparison screen always block my stats view. tongue.gif

about this one I mentioned yesterday - I confirm I can kill Belial, alone, at one corner, standing still. without Enchantress.

I just have to time my heal more carefully, use RMB often and also hope the fella don't hit me la. biggrin.gif it works, confirm!

ooo all right.

well i sold stuff at buyout price 10k before though.
stuff that +80 or higher to main stats like str / dex etc.


btw mark up your prices by 18% to make the buyer absorb the 15% tax lulz.

i.e.

1000 x 1.18 = 1180

1180 after 15% tax is about 1000

So the max spirit is only at 250 with the passive skill added? kinda low and suxs that we can't increase the spirit max pool. doh.gif

U can try using spirit Regen from gears or mantra. no point using the +100 spirit mantra.

kecian. wut u trying to sell? and prices?
so far i sold a lot. i think 10+ rares liao. price average 3k - 4k after 15% tax
only left 2 no sold yet. i think will lower prices for those 2 or just salvage em.
i think your defense not high enough oooo bcos u focus on dps.
i can reach 60% damage reduction from same level mobs, dodge 55%.

bro you selling for in game gold? haha...sounds nice. i have tons of rares i'm not sure what i'm gonna do with them.

I'm balancing high dex with moderate vit, since i'm taking Seizing the initiative which gives extra armour, using the mantra of evasion with armour buff, and pretty much try to dodge like a boss.

wta do you guys notice that some skill description is not update when you choose a rune?

i.e. Seven sided strike w/ Sustained attack rune (cd reduce by 7 sec)

Normal cd is 30 sec, so after combine with the rune should be 23 sec, but yet d description remain at 30 sec.
so in real, d cd does drop to 23 sec?

btw, i wonder y the skill description is d website is much detailed than the 1 ingame..... hmm.gif

guys, is it normal that the monk still uses his fist as attack even though he's equipped with weapons??

when i first equipped with daibo, i can see him wooing his daibo, after change another daibo, no more using daibo, using his fist to attack zzz..

now equipped with swords, still using fists to attack rclxub.gif

i wonder does the damage actually being dealt?

turn on the damage numbers, or see if mobs die faster if you equipped better weapons.

Weapons for monks are like staffs for wizard. you only wear it for the stats, but your toon never use it (except for fist weapons, of course)

Use transcendence passive..use a high damaging skill without CD and uses a lot of spirit (eg the bell skill)..I heal around 600+ when I use it once.. then I use FoT to generate spirit for its fast atk speed.. rinse repeat till he die..... (only applicable for normal mode lol)

Stay close to belial and start pumping the thousand fist with the swaying kick, and 7 side strike. he couldnt do anything. i beat him without using a single healing potion. butcher is the hardest so far to me.

Would like opinions on this build, am currently level 34 and just starting nightmare mode.

Follower option are Scoundrel/Enchantress, HP around 2.2k to 2.4k, DPS 400, armor (with the passive skill) around 1.5 (45%-50% damage reduction)

You may opt for 2h if the 2h you found has a huge gap in attack compare to your 1h.

But later on in higher mode, you maybe want to opt for 1h x2 or a shield to have a more "secured" gameplay... afteralll zombie hit up to 10k in Inferno~~

Monk is really fast leveler. I was level 34 yesterday, this morning before I stopped I am already level 44. By another 2 days time I may reach 60 even before I hit the 60 hours mark.

Monk is really fast leveler. I was level 34 yesterday, this morning before I stopped I am already level 44. By another 2 days time I may reach 60 even before I hit the 60 hours mark.

Agree especially healing allow us to rush alot.

I got to lvl 60 around 30+ hours mark.
Forgot exact, should be around 35.

Added on May 21, 2012, 1:55 pmIs it stupid to wear shield on monk rather than dual-weapon?

better to level up no point farming for gears at that level. I never really bothered with farming then just playing the story and exploring the whole map. I only had problems in act 3, then i had to upgrade my gear.

its not stupid, it does help..
at begining i am using fist and shield for more protection..
but if your expecting for faster attack speed den dual weapon is the best choice from my personal opinion

In my using of Monk, currently in Act II Nightmare mode, try to sell items and get gold and buy stuffs at AH.

Don't buy something which is way to expensive as once you go higher level, you would want to upgrade your weapons, so try not to buy expensive ones, buy those cheap / moderate value of weapons and upgrade from time to time to get what you want.

Currently hitting on dex and vit items now, previously was hitting on exp to gain level. Dex, Vit and Regen HP per hit and Kill.

With Mantras and High Dex, dodging % would be high, just focus on more dmg, this is my own opinion, and is serving me well in solos and also co-op, as monk is more like a team player with skills existing others.

Do share.

The best strategy is just to play without thinking too much until act 3. Difficulty is not that hard u will make do with pickups.

ah i see.
this one called balanced, not imba oo.

in terms of DPS, i think wizard and demon hunter still higher right? but their defense / health / regen a bit lacking etc. i.e. they die fast.

monks can tank, heal self, deal damage etc.

read this thread since page 1. seems that many who posts their skill build here stick with the default non elective mode. although i saw someone mentioning it, but like no one post skill build with elective mode enabled.

i'm currently at lvl 25 and very close to belial already. if i use elective mode, in general is there any build you guys would recommend for 1)solo and 2)co-op?
please share. thx

my dmg now very low at 135 only despite most items have +dex quite high and are rare items.

Im using elective mode dude.

Don't remember lvl 25 got what skills as in office now, but currently using this settings, maybe you can take note for future using, if you like.

Different ppl have different build based on yourself and also you coop classes.

1) Armor Mantra, BoH ( for boasting 60 sec of attack so after 15 sec can help heal if needed ), Swirling, then Cyclone and Crippling.
2) Change Armor to Regen to help out others.

When fight single Bosses, change crippling to Thunder Fist with critical rune, whereby critical will boost your attack as well.

Nightmare mode, mobs are super crazy, so cyclone and thunder kick will help a alot as you're melee, mobs will definitely come for you. Knock them back and hit them 1 by 1, this is for those blue and yellow mobs, get the yellow mobs 1st, blue one's comes to you, knockback again.

currently on Act 3 heart of curse nightmare

dual wield fist weapons

seven strike or serenity, dashing strike, cyclone strike, any mantras +

way of thunder fists, crippling wave

passives:
transendence
Seize the initiative
Beacon of Ytar

basically i use cyclone strike pull enemies to me and aoe damage, pulling can interrupts enemy's big move or channeling skills, also help teammate easily aoe dps at me, and saving teammates from enemy

pulling enemies to me can be very risky, when in danger,I will use serenity become invincible buy sometime to generate spirit and re-heal myself, or drink potion incase not enough time to heal, and with gears support life per hit and life after kill

also a tanker lol,

dashing strike to chase cowards

dashing strike I usually use to stun an enemy or bosses,
because dashing strike and cyclone strike are instant skill no cooldown time, I can use them repeatly, healing and keep myself alive. cripping wave generates spirit very fast

thats how I play it at the moment, this is not recommend if you dont have good enough gear set

soon I will try passive improve dodge and evasion mantras, see if it helps,
if can dodge most of enemy attacks, it's better than high armor tanking



by the way, do you guys use dyes?

I make my helm, bracer and shoulder vanish dye, so my monk looks like a real Monk, without fancy bracers, bare hands with knucklers, wear only monk clothes

Try to save more money. I play monk hardly purchase anything from npc. At the end I had like 400k gold at around Ur lvl. played nightmare then start buying ah gear. Choose wisely as there are lots of them. Go for those price lower with reasonable stats.

Spirit. Normal setup is 1 Spirit Generator (the first 4 Primary skills), 1 DPS skill, 4 support skills. You likely need to adjust your Spirit usage to match your Spirit generation, or go dual wield with Daggers or Fist weapons to generate Spirit faster. If you prefer slow attack speed weapons, go for DPS skills like Exploding Palm and Sweeping Wind.

my skills la.........

1. heal
2. wind (dmg generator
3. seven sided strike (run to enemy, use this, then release spinning kick. run.....)
4. sp generating skill (available at higher level).

i also set the mantra to "heal when sp used" so rather than waiting for heal cooldown, i can use items 2 - 3- 4 - and sweeping kick (RMB) all that uses SP to heal. biggrin.gif of course Q button is always there la.

hint to fast finish - run fast fast past all them monsters.

but if you don't level up ah, Nightmare mode is tough, though I think they monsters are still based on your character level, the weapon you have would help.

imagine la, my Monk at level 31 or so, killed Diablo in ONE attempt. easy stuff.

go Nightmare mode ah, shortly pass the Act I to go to cemetary only ahhh, already died. And died no less than 4 times just to kill that darn simple monster that throws mortar. sad.gif At some point I felt.......

a) my character cannot pass Act I la (but in the end pass also. LOL)
b) maybe i should level up in normal mode first (in the end i didn't)
c) demon hunter would fare better as they have ranged weapon. shoot from far still better than me having to run up close. no joke if it's 3 huge monster with flaming chains, or those that release laser beams, or those with frost blast. so on so forth.

Aim for Dex and Vit items. In fact my Monk has more Vit items than Dex. No matter how high your Dex, you can only dodge so much, without high Vit, in higher difficulties 2-3 hits and you're dead.

Consider putting in some Int as well to bump up your resistance.

for me.. im looking for str,dex and vit equipment. as one of the passive skill, dex can convert 100% to armor, so dex + str = total armor.. socket red ruby to the weapons to boost attack..

two 1-handed weapons can have x2 200++ dex while

imo dual wield 1-handed weapons > single wield 2-handed weapons bcos

two 1-handed weapons can have x2 200++ dex while
one 2-handed weapons can have x1 200++ dex only

for example.

If I'm not mistaken, daggers have an extra 0.1 attack speed compared fist weapons.

yoyo some guide on your stats and build? same goes to me, ditch my lv36 barb and started a monk. got it to lv53 with no swt. Now going through Act1 in Hell, it's really a pain. 25k hp, 4k dps with buff. Have to do some kiting in party. If i'm alone it's quite easy though.

Anyone tried the crit dmg + crit chance build? Looks good.

as i play coop all the time after normal (only normal solo), i am typically the only melee which makes me the tank, so i am on a tank build that has almost 40k hp, shield, and 3 slots of defensive skills (no lolsanctum) + healing mantra.

it takes at least a combination of 2-3 damage attributes (like arcane enchanted/molten/desolation/plague/fire chains etc) to bring me down. or perma knockback attacks (lol anyone thats fat) to keep me from generating spirit and i cant spam heal mantra to self sustain or scorpion kick to perma stun (combi of both basically makes me invulnerable lol)

pure dps monk havent really venture to it, as most of the time past nightmare, i kept dying like a fly and it wasnt much fun at all while my teammates kite for their lives. so act 1 of hell i am beginning to build up a tank set (while collecting normal dps gears too, i have decent amount of stash space so not much issue) which i end up from 10k hp going into hell until the almost 40k right now. even got a legendary sword "doombringer" which nets me ~3k dps as a tank and thats not too shabby either.

i mean, not many people can stare into 3-4 rare/elite mobs in the eye fearless and hold their ground still with arcane enchanted laser beams slicing through them without moving an inch while your glass cannon dps'ers unload without the need to kite/run? i guess thats one of the satisfactions of being a tank smile.gif

yeah took me a while to realize that, didn't know about the lower half you mentioned, other than INT part which make sense in usual RPG.

anyway my monk char focuses on DEX and VIT only. I don't care about INT and STR.

eh guys the 7-sided strike which rune is better?

QUOTE
Dash rapidly between nearby enemies, dealing 777% weapon damage over 7 hits.

Sudden Assault Teleport to the target, increasing damage done to 1006% weapon damage over 7 strikes.

Several-Sided Strike Increases the number of strikes to 9.

9 strikes of 111% weapondmg each = 999% which is (slightly) worse than the 2nd rune, no?

what i am saying is, if you had advanced tooltips turned on (from game options), you can mouseover the stats like int/str/armor etc, and they will tell you what it does. pressing details from your inventory gives you further math/numbers like this post's screenshot: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=51577956

the rest, refer here: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/game/

i see that skill as buying time for you to be immuned, you basically get approximately 1-2 seconds of immunity from the extra 2 strikes.
that said, id rather just get -7 sec off it, so i can 7 sided more. and now, i dont use it because when i go immune my teammates get whacked. so i just use 3x defensive skills on my bar lol

pure dps wise, there are exploding palm strike + sweeping winds to churn out better dps. 7 sides is more of your "oh shit button" or your kiting button (lol the spirit requirement and cooldown) which on overall, aren't that practical at all

placing dagger/knuckle on the left/right gives u different atk spd

i just started using monk. found out using dagger on the left and knuckle on the right give better atk speed than knuckle on the left while dagger on the right


Added on May 22, 2012, 6:48 pmor it is as long as u put the higher atk spd weapon on the left? i noticed when u use a more than 1 hit skill your atk spd will drop n rise, punch to punch


Added on May 22, 2012, 6:59 pmi dont understand. why equipping two weapons give lower dmg than single weapon. but higher atk spd than single weapon

I always go for weapon that have dex and vit only. Mine both weap have 1xx dex and 2xx vit. With this 2 weap my dps and hp is good to go.
As long as i have spirit can say that I can never die i only have problem with those huge bulky champion/elite that can do charging wallop damage n knockback
me to stop me generating spirit. To counter that i change to using mystic ally (air or wind forgot lol) the one that generate spirit on each attack.
You need to know the rotation of spells that grain you 'godmode' or reducing damage skill or healing skill. Rotating between those skill will grant you
time to take those elite down , that y spirit is totally important to a monk. Ability like generate 1.9 spirit per sec those are important too.

The more spirit we have the better we are? Hurm... do you have your passive which adds up to 259 spirit? Regarding the weapon, yeah can't agree more. But for the spirit i have yet to test it out. My passive is always 100% armor for each dex you have, 15% dodge with 2 weapons, and 25% dmg lowered if monk hit's enemy.

well at times yes. myself can also pump more atk on single handed. Depending on the shield dex stats as well. But 2 handed is about 25% faster if i am not mistaken. read somewhere in bnet forum. unless you have a sucky 2 handed else a double handed will be good. do remember there is still leeching, life per hit, crit dmg and atk speed attributes to take into consideration.

guys, when u hunt for items in AH, what's the main stats u look for in ur equipment? from weapon to armor to rings and necklace hmm.gif

ok dex is a must for monk, besides that? what's the best u look at in equipment? what's crucial for a monk to have in its item build?

for me, i look for:

1) +Dex
2) +vitality
3) life on kill/hit
4) life steal
5) attack speed

there's a passive where all your resistance is equal to your highest resistance... you just need to buy/find gears with only one type of resistance and use this passive to resist them all. You coupled that with 100% dexterity ---> armor passive + 15% dodge chance dual wield or 25% DR to enemies you hit, you can be quite tanky

freeze is not a problem to begin with. I'm just getting whacked.

and I think some of my deaths were due to lag. suddenly the fella appear next to me and hit me, which I don't recall he can do that.

i can do 1/4 damage successfully, so gonna try it when there's lesser lag. 8:50am i think a lot of people checking e-mail and FB in office la.

i'm using serenity, so keep whacking him for few seconds and then run around. shouldn't be a problem IMO, i just suspect it's a lag issue.

if you want to go healing type, than you can swap out the last with transcendence + using mantra of healing with the first rune (more HPS), yes.

the passive I recommended is if you want to be a bit tanky in higher difficulty, where sometime you need resistance as well as armor. For that, you can also swap out mantra of healing rune to the last one (resistance increased by 20%) instead of more HPS.

EDIT: Comment my build please. Using a two-hander polearm, 3k HP. 600ish dps. Enchantress/Scoundrel follower (depending on my mood)

FoT + Teleport
Chuck Norris' roundhouse kick + Fire damage
Heal + increased damage for 45sec
Dashing strike + reduced spirit
7-sided strike + teleport rune
Mantra of Healing + more HPS rune

Passives

Transcendence
Chant of Resonance (might change this to more dodge chance if I can get 2 1-hander with decent spirit regen, using 2-hander atm)
Seize the initiative (50% DR without using a shield <3)

Actually your build and skills really have to depend on how you play the game.

Solo mostly or CO-OP, if solo then you need to play those non-supportive skills, and CO-OP then you need to be a team player.

For me as all rounder CO-OP( plays at night after work so friends would be on that time )

WoTF + Extra Dmg for 5 sec + 3 times stack ( DPS increase )
Chuck Norris' roundhouse kick + Fire damage
Heal + increased damage for 45sec
Dashing strike + reduced spirit
Pullback + increase radius
Mantra of Healing + add damage rune

Passives

I dont rmbr the names, but one is 100% dex to armor, Dual Weilding to dodge ( since i not using dodge mantra ), and also one for everything resistance.

So far serve me quite alright, in nightmare mode, havent die yet.

3K DPS, 9K HP.

I would normally Heal 1st so CD 15sec can be use later on when fighting, DMG up for 45seconds 15% i think, Healing Mantra , Dmg up again. then Dash In, Pullback, and WoTF ( if lucky added dmg ), Too many mobs to handle just round house kick and hit one by one on those elite mobs. just knockback and fight the nearest to you.

quite nice.

well basically monk is just too imba and probably deserved some nerf in the future..

monk can basically do good dps, aoe, tank, heal, debuff, buff, dodge, crit machine all at the SAME TIME.

I think this quite the optimum built for Nightmare.

In Nightmare,
HP is not a big matter. (Advice: 2.5K - 5K is fairly enough, extra)
Max Out Attack would be helpful as you move and send forth hell to Diablo & Co. (2K-4K Attack is advisable)

In Hell, you seriously goddamn need HP.
I would suggest 13K-21K HP for Hell.
Attack (Minimumly 4K, anything more is up to you)

Inferno,
Go to your nearest church/temple/mosque before u try =p
25K HP is nothing to 4 Zombie, 1HIT KO.
Advisable minimum attack : 7000

you guys is saying atk, how to see that 1? the damage below the armor part?
i cant get that high, i slot all emerald with dex also cannot, my dmg is only like 500. but my crit dmg is 165%.

So is it better to use dagger and put ruby at weapon instead of put emerald at weapon?
plan to do crit dodge build, dodge chance now is about 47%. but crit chance is 10% only. but due to 1 of the passive skill, my armor is about 2k.

i put square ruby into weapon. adds about 16-26 dmg i think. any level above square is too expensive

armor and others i put emerald and amethyst (boost vitality)

DPS now ~650, HP 4K. Monk level 33

can get cheap magical rings in AH that boost high Dex and socketed

We're in the process of removing the on-use benefits of the Mantra of Healing rune, Boon of Protection. The hotfix change is:

Amount of damage absorbed is now capped at the amount of healing provided by Mantra of Healing in the first 3 seconds after activation


We recommend discontinuing its use until the rune is replaced with a new rune and mechanic in a future patch.

The Boon of Protection rune was approximately ten times over its budget on the benefits it provided, and it was quite simply a mistake on our part to let the rune ship as it was. We don't intend to take these quick and drastic measures often, but considering the severity of the issue, we felt it important to correct it swiftly.

We're shooting to post a full list of recent hotfixes tomorrow, and will be looking to answer questions once that's live.

at one point in Nightmare mode, I settle for less 100 - 200 dps to get about 150 health restore per hit, and you know monks got how many hits la.

so mob that time you see health go up up up only.

but now big big mobs it go up also no use. so might as well deal damage and hope for some crits, still gonna die anyway.

for every gems socketed into different equipment ie armor/weapon has different effect.. and i saw that there will be details when u scroll ur mouse onto the gems it will say for example ruby "insert into weapon +blablabla OR insert into helm and +blablabla"

should we just follow that guide or is there any other way to tweak around it?

will the % stack for magic find items? say helm +7% and armor +6% = total 13% chance of finding magical items? or gold % or whatever la..

Monk is kinda great in normal,nightmare and hell but when reaching inferno you will know the disadvantages of monk. Well you just need some preparation before entering inferno.This is the build I am using smile.gif

Stats = Vit > Resistance > Crit chances > Dex

Important Skills = Breath of Heaven, Serenity, Blinding Flash.

actually asking a real noobs question here.. what's the difference between ppl saying their dex is 700 and DPS is 1k? what is the full name of DPS actually? damage per second?

from my understanding, say dex = 700, when i go to detail stats, my damage increased by dexterity will be 700% also... so what is DPS?

When Dual wielding , you get 15% extra attack speed but you're actually alternating with your main hand and off hand weapon .

If you got 1 high dmg weapon and the other one is low , your dps is lower than using 1h with a shield .

The benefit of using dual wield is the 15% atk speed / Passive to increase dodge / extra stats

serenity. cast. just before reaching him. hit, count 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 ..............run far far away until can cast again.

avoid frost blast at all cost.

skill is the hundred fist, rune set to recover sp when hitting.

then passive skill i make sure i have SP used = Heal.

the atk speed increase is auto or with the passive skill using dual-wield?

anyway now i use 2-hand weapon, cos more DPS. at higher level, higher DPS helps a lot.

i use to have dual-wield and each weapon replenish health but at higher levels, it's really case by case already.

I tried with a heavy 2hand before , it's very good with skill that depends on weapon dmg like Sweeping Wind / Wave of Light (Explosive Light) .
But sure have problem when meeting mobs with lot of minions like the skeleton/monster that kill raising the dead.

DPS is the actual dmg calculated by the game after factoring in dex, weap, gear n etc. dex by itself contributes to % extra dmg of raw dmg (plus other like dodge n armor if u got passive)

Eg: u have a white (normal weap) 100 dmg show on it n all other gear is +dex only, lets say 100 dex.

The dps would then be 100 (of weap) * (1 + (1* % inc by dex)
= 100 * (1+(1*100%))
= 100 * (1+1)
= 200 dps

Now take back the same weap n say u find gear upgrade now +200 dex. Ur dps jump up to 300

ehh sweeping wind and wave of light depending on weapon?

anyway mobs ah? whether using dual-wield or 2 handed - still get into heaps of trouble. I doubt using 1 hand + shield can help that much (depending on stats).

now in Hell Mode and I still get pwned easily by those lesser creatures with insane HP and even more insane ability - eg mortar, fire chain, laser, wall, those that bring you back into the mob. sheesh, 1 group of them really need to die a few times just to settle. worse if combat zone far from checkpoint.

Actually all skills depending on the weapon dmg , not DPS .

If you go nightmare , you use heavy weapon (the slower the better) , you try using wave of light can 1shot kill but when using 1h sure cannot kill one .

worst is the molten / plagued + vampiric, very hard to kill

oh you referring to that la, to what I remember - it's not about the weapon dmg either. It's about the ATTACK you see in the stats. no?

dual-wield a 133 + 133 doesn't mean it's better attack / dps than a 2-handed 200.

tested various combos before, I donno how to calculate the attack. even both can look like knuckle weapons of similar dmg + stats, the total attack variation can be huge.

When u dual wield will have 15% bonus atk spd.
The dmg calculation gets messy but gonna give simple example with no stat weap.

Both weap have exact same damage, atk spd.
Eg : 100-200 dmg 1.00 atk per sec
Dps if use only 1= (100+200)/2 * 1.00
= 150 dps

Now if dual wield:
(100+200)/2 * (1.00 + (1.00*15%))
= 150 * 1.15
= 172.5 since both weap is same

If 2 weap is diff juz add the 2 individual dps n find the avg

No le , the skill scale with weapon dmg like the 70-100 dmg stat not the dps .

basically ,

Dual wield = attack faster / extra dodge (with passive only) / more stats
2h = scale with skills better / extra spirit regen (with passive only) / Easy to get item (instead of finding 2 good 1h)

The dmg calculation increase with +atk%

oic...so in this case dual wield would have a higher dps rate...so far there is no penalty for off-hand weapon rite? i mean traditionally the off-hand weapons in rpgs tend to lower the att rate

seems like nobody wants to answer to this kinda question

dual wield you get faster attack speed + additional attack stats from another weapon. simple as that.
bottom line is dual wield = more dps.

2hander may be a contender, however as far as monk dps goes, their bulk of the dps comes from their spirit generator skills and those are faster with dual wielding.

ha any idea why.

is it been asked too many times or is a stupid question

if ur dps on inventory is higher with shield, perhaps your shield is providing better stats than another offhand weapon. the shield wont be able to attack and your overall attack speed is still slower.

No le , the skill scale with  weapon dmg  like the 70-100 dmg stat not the  dps .

basically ,

Dual wield = attack faster / extra dodge (with passive only) / more stats
2h = scale with skills better / extra spirit regen (with passive only) / Easy to get item (instead of finding 2 good 1h)

The dmg  calculation  increase with +atk%
*
oh ok.

as for now, I sold off my stuff. using high DPS 2-hand. biggrin.gif hopefully can find some nice weapons for dual-wield.

oic...so in this case dual wield would have a higher dps rate...so far there is no penalty for off-hand weapon rite? i mean traditionally the off-hand weapons in rpgs tend to lower the att rate
*
the penalty is that both weapon dmg need to be close to each other .

Example,

Main hand 200dps / Off hand 100dps

You hit 1 time per second.

For 3 sec , Deal 200 + 100 +200 (cos you switch between hands)

So total DPS for 3 sec = 500/3 = 166.66

So you see that the off hand actually dragged down the dps

actually asking a real noobs question here.. what's the difference between ppl saying their dex is 700 and DPS is 1k? what is the full name of DPS actually? damage per second?

from my understanding, say dex = 700, when i go to detail stats, my damage increased by dexterity will be 700% also... so what is DPS?


Added on May 24, 2012, 11:37 am
i remember someone referring u as SG in GGC haha cant really rmb d laugh.gif

yes dps is damage per second. and usually it refers to the "damage" in your inventory

Tip from me: when u get to inferno get a shield ASAP
I've tried a bunch of builds and so far most iable is tank build with tons of armor + resists.

I don't have the wxact stats rite now but i'm running with:
58.22% res to all
60% dmg reduction (mayb more)
12k dps
28k hp

Can solo act 1
if party with super dps i change to more hp gear n more armor n res

yes, being sour in inferno because i dont have enough dps to kill butcher solo. got him to 50% and the whole room got no more patches to run and totally on fire.
once i get maiimouto enchantress to maxed 60 i will continue coop with friends to have their dpsers/glass cannons to join in while i tank.

dps spec/gear is around 10k which is obviously not enough since i require some defensive skills to stay alive.

tank spec/gear on the other hand butcher hits like a *****, but i only got around 2k dps lol.

20k minimum to comfortably solo Butcher. Sounds to me like you just need to throw some gold into getting a decent weapon.

You're missing the most important part: One with All.

Its theoretically possible for a Monk who has perfect Act IV / Pony gear to get 98.21% damage mitigation.

Unfortunately, no matter how you slice it, it is impossible to solo Act II with anything less than 40k HP.

Go straight for an 800 if you can afford it. Money is not hard to earn, any decent stat gear will sell for 25k~50k. Moreso with the recent mass spread of the resplendent exploit, 800dps weapons are fairly cheap right now and worth the investment.

i gotten the game late too as i was waiting CE to ship from USA LOL.

most of my friends are like 30-40 ish when im starting with level 1 sad.gif
and i wanted to take my time on normal cuz lol lore/dialogs etc. only start to rush on nightmare/hell.

able to get this far because i took 1 week leave off work. (mon-friday whole week), so including 2 weekends, thats 9 days of dedicated d3 lol.


as for boon of protection, yes it does absorb, however since patch lolnerf, its irrelevant now. 1k hp absorption cant even sustain any damage from inferno.

Yeah I suppose. Coop doesn't really help things though as my group is fully decked out in A2 gears but the average health and damage is just too overwhelming in Act 2. Main contributions will come from bflash and MoE to keep the DH/wizzies alive, NOT that we don't already die to everything...instantly.

Addendum: I find it helpful to use Screaming Skull on my DH. You should get your group's DHs to use it because it helps immensely with crowd control, moreso when they can just throw it out almost infinitely.

where r u getting the 98.21% mitigation from? Can give the sos? It involves a CRAZY gear with armor n res reduction of at least 90% on one and over 80% on the other.

With that gear act 1 is a walk.
Mine's alrd about 84% mitigation but am still upgrading smile.gif

Act I alone can die countless times. And more deaths along the way, usually when high speed mortar, arcane, molten, extra health, jailer, waller, whatever combo monsters come in trio.

lol u need luck when bidding, hopefully there's no one there to outbid u!! and of coz gold!!

for me i always dont like to bid and keep a lookout on buyout price only... cant always keep track on the bidding price rclxub.gif

i probably think that u always get lower dps and stats due to that u never filter the character column when searching for equipments.. go direct to the items for specific character ie filter "Monk" rather than filtering by "yourID Monk" coz when u filter by ur ID, items appear to be lower by a few level than ur current level.. thus the lower dps and stats on items cool.gif

how get 98.21% oh?

btw how does damage reduction and resistance works? which comes first?

i.e.

armor 60% reduce
resist 60% all

say 10,000 damage comes in

armor first?
4,000 remaining?

then another 60% from resistance?
total is 1,600 ? from original 10,000 ? but which one is counted first?

1 - (1600 / 10 000) = 0.84

so 60% and 60% would be about 84% damage reduction? O_O

oh, also, the 60% is only 60% if the monster is the same level with the monk, in inferno, all monsters higher level one right so it is not 60% liao yes?

edit:
my maths fail.
armor or resist first does not matter. end result is the same.

i.e.
if 60% and 60% then
1 x 0.4 x 0.4 = 0.16

if 40% and 60% then
1 x 0.6 x 0.4 = 0.24

if 60% and 40% then
1 x 0.4 x 0.6 = 0.24
