Hello fellow monk pros... The monk thread really are more lively than other class..

I have a noob question to ask.. Or mayb guidance towards monk...

I just roll a monk 3 days ago.. My play style is base on loh n crit.. Duel wield sometimes n in certain difficult situation, switch to a shield..

I want to ask about which is the best attack to pair up with loh... As I can see that most ppl argue that FoT is the best.. But how about crippling wave?? Can it be used as a good loh attack becos it attack quite a decent number of mobs in the same time...

Please help me out here becos I still get my ass kick in act 2 sometimes playing solo..

P/s. I get my ass kicked more when playing coop... T.T

Oh... So actually all attack is suitable.. Becos I saw some pros make the calculation b4 n claims FoT to be the best loh.. But I found out crippling wave is also not bad and proc a lot of loh for me too...

And my nooby stats,

Resist 690(748 with shield) unbuff
Armor 4376(5227 with shield) unbuff
Hp 30k
Dps 14-15k (depends on dual wield or not) sucks right T.T
Dodge 31.7

How??? My stats can make it ah??? Lol

I do use a shield.. When I look for more survivability.. But if I know I can roll around without the additional armor n resist from my shield, I will dual wield... Is just that I actually use both becos I carry the shield in my inventory n switch around according to situation..

But at the moment, my loh is at 800+ when single wield n 1400 when dual wield... Is it enuff??

crippling wave imo is strictly a tanking or aoe based skill. and because of its noticeable slower speed, it doesn't work too well with LoH that requires fast atk.

additionally, crippling wave and concussion rune is is good at weakening enemies, thing is, post 1.0.3 mobs are already weaken as it is. and concussion will never scale as mobs doesnt "update" themselves all the time while your gear upgrades gradually, hence why i eventually switch to deadly reach for keen eye 50% armor, then eventually 18% dmg (foresight?) as i am gearing more for dps smile.gif

Hello dual wield sifu, is there any order or strategy in placing weapon on mainhand n offhand??

For example, slower weapon place on mainhand or faster weapon on mainhand or is the same regardless of anything???

Hello all pro monks...

Got some question regarding LOH..

I want to ask whether what type of damage/hit done by monk that will proc loh..

As I know, cyclone doesn't proc loh but what about:

1) sweeping wind itself??
2) MOE-backlash????
3) MOC-overwave????

Can any sifu clarify for me and clear my doubts...

Anything more than 20% is enough lol. I'm just 22%cc only nia.


Added on August 14, 2012, 2:19 pmI still don't want to let go the 8xx LoH, that's why I don't change my 441LoH/311 armor amulet to something with critical. and I prefer dual wield vs shield.

U can try the legendary ouroboros amulet. It has good stats and most of all, crit chance n life steal. Lucky enuff, u can even get the same resist that you r stacking. I gotten mine with 4mil. Can check it out if u want man.

i only got to test before work (as evident on my posting time)

but yea, i did like 230k dmg on the mob. poor thing it exploded as the bell came crashing on his head XD

Does wol hit harder with 2hd or about the same with dual wield??

I read in d3 forum stating that with duel wield is bugged.. Some says that a 2hd 1000+ dps weapon with some crit dmg can hig up to 500-700k dmg per bell... I'm confuse..

I tried it out myself but I dun have a decent 2hd weapon so I can't really tell the different...

Your stats are good enough to clear Inferno.

Still want to upgrade?
I think you can upgrade your weapon, especially your off-hand weapon.
And upgrade the gems.
These are more realistic upgrades for you, I guess.
*
Lol, yeah I can clear inferno pretty much.. But when someone is stuck with the current gear for too long, they will eventually want to be better n upgrade.. I have stuck for too long in my current gear and all new upgrade require at least 5 mil per piece...

That's why I'm asking all pros here what can I do without simply wasting gold...

Will take ur advise on gems... But my off hand weapon r so beast.... Loh, built in CD, socket.... How to find similar shit like this with cheap price man.... T.T
