Monk patch 1.04 changes coming tonight / tomorrow:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/6307742990#1 Barbarian got many buff, while WW is not nerf. Wizard also got many buff, with 1 nerf on Energy Twister. What is your guess for monk??? What I think will happen: 1. 7SS - cooldown reduced... this is a cool skill, but the CD is just ridicules 2. Exploding palm - Higher damage - this is like no-brainer... pretty much confirmed 3. Wave of Light - i really like this skill before i get into Inferno but no viable in Inferno due to high spirit. my guess, lower spirit requirement 4. Mystic ally buff - they will die less often 5. Mantra of Retribution - it's too weak in inferno coz mobs HP is tooooo much... What I wish will happen: 1. Using 2H weapon give additional IAS / armour - may be this will be cover in 2H buff? But i like to use Daibo! 2. WotHF got improved IAS? I like this skill! but it's slow! 3. Dashing strike - please improve it in any way~ i like an agile monk where we can move in strike, move out quickly... 4. Buff the dodge of monk... |

Lose NV when changing skill is totally failed game design.. they were talking about skill diversity for diff types of battle.. but what is the point if u change skill all NV lost? End up ppl will use the same skill over and over again..when they turn to fight u, u go behind them again..hehe but can't do in inf, since will lose the NV |

End up ppl will use the same skill over and over again.. no it is not. the game was never meant for you to respec on every challenge. you're suppose to come up with a build you prefer and work around challenges with said build.the only thing that failed, is that skills aren't balanced around that there are obvious sets of skills that trumps the rest. granted, hardcores and min-maxers will ALWAYS have a cookie cutter build that will always out perform the non-cookie cutter builds. that's a given. however going non-cookie cutter should still be viable, and at least provide loads of fun and not simply penalize your character just because you're not having skill a and so forth. eg: monks without serenity, BoH, a mantra, is generally worthless the aim of such balancing patches is to give players that perhaps hate mantra (always solo, no need aoe buffs, right?), perhaps the player want to be balls out offensive, zero defensive skills, to be viable to even play the game. he may not be the tankiest bunch, however he can kill fast enough to void usage of defensive skills. the current game is definitely not the case as without at least 2-3 defensive skills and/or a mantra, you're not getting anywhere, much less finish inferno. (granted, if ur insanely geared, anything goes. it is a gear based game afterall) |

I prefer to change skill time to time depending on situation.. like if boss i would like to use most efficient single target skills and for elite/mobs more on aoe skills or tank.. or maybe this gane is not for me lol.. for no point of having a lot off skill if u cant use it

How do you get such a high armor with that low of STR? I got 2k dex & 500 STR but my armour are only hovering 5.5k only.

Yahor, I got a shield with 1.4k armor! But but.... I don't really like to become a palamonk.

QUOTE(sexbomb @ Aug 17 2012, 10:52 AM) @Quazacolt shouldn't be the way it calculates. hell, dps is just a rough benchmark, it definitely does not equate to your actual damage output thank for clarifying on the +FoT dmg % so can it be said that my actual dps is actually +3.5k? or not really that way to calculate? |

QUOTE(sexbomb @ Aug 17 2012, 12:50 PM) My monk doesn't have +% skill damage. But my Demon Hunter has +9% hungering arrow on the quiver. It just add the damage as description, as simple as that. Without the quiver, my DPS is about 87K. With the quiver, it is 95K+ DPS. Sometimes it can even hit up to 100K+ DPS. It is something good to have.
