You would definitely would not want to choose poison & use Andariel Visage. Tanking in molton/fire chain/dissecrator with it is definitely not a good idea.

fuhhhhhh last skill on gouken some more

Actually im very interested to use Staff monks. Though not many uses it. Wanting to find its effectiveness to rotan enemies

Staff build use this:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/daibo/#type=set
and stack as much as IAS. LoH get from ammy/ring to compensate the lack of such feature in the weapon.

with Tested staff build before... too slow for my liking. Like yuhhaur said, IAS is important for 2H. Other than Inna's Reach, other good staff is Flying dragon. Found this in game, keeping for testing purpose. OK, I cannot sell, 2H is CHEAP!

Impressive palamonk build. I wonder how well you do in higher MP levels.
Do us a benchmark on SB? I believe Ghom will give you some issue in higher levels.

True..i have a set item daibo, totally cannot sell. lol

but that flying dragon seems nice man. Chance to double the attack when attacking.

How much speed is consider good enough for monks? 2.3? 2.4? or....3? O.O

i believe you can get both LoH and LS from 2handers

i like fast attack! so for me at least 1.8 and above.

Most "Sith Lord of the Monk" has 2.0 and above. For 2H, you may wanna achieve 1.6.

Generally, I agree with these stat: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/7004037253?page=1#16

yeah mayn. Anyway, i thought somehow aspd is 'negligible' due to monk fast primary attack which is set from the skill itself.

stacking IAS in 2H monk is same as the ego to go perma freeze in WW Wizzie. Since both characters will need to tank infront you will want to make sure that the enemy are having no chance to attack us.

Bcos i decided to not play in high MP and IM, i sold my resist chest, pant, helm to replace with pickup radius gears. so higher MP is not possible at this time.. i play mostly on MP3 for now, enjoy fast kill and pickup gold. highest i go is MP5, but don like it becos killing the elites will slower and loot also crap. already did my survey in AH, with my current gold i have, can upgrade my weapon to LS but i not planning any upgrade for now.. unless i cant progress anymore by playing in MP3..

If only monk got Critical Mass like wizard, then i can rotan enemies. Then my emergency or oh shit button is the tempest rush to flee the scene. Seen a few monks do it, i was like wtf yo. Dont leave me hanging!

I should recommend blizzard to introduce nun chucks for monk with the ability to stun enemies

monk got flashbang same effect

You should get inna's temperance, its has really good dps and move speed too, as you are lacking movespeed.
Change your left ring to something with crit, dex, average damage. Basically for dual wielding you'd need weapons with decent dps, socket with crit damage but it'll be expensive, budget stuff you could get non socket and get LoH. You should change your shoulders for something with vit too.
Your bracers could be upgraded with a lacuni for movespeed to get 24% with inna's temperance


You'll need to change your rings to something with crit, average damage, dex, resist.
IAS is not a good stat to stack for dps if your crit damage and crit chance is slow, an easy way to get a huge dps increase is to get an inna's temperance.
If possible drop the shenlong set as they are pretty bad and it is better to get something else, it'll cost more gold tho, but focus on changing your rings and get an inna's temperance
