MP10 is easy if you have 5%LS+2kLoH. just facetank.

Yes I would have to agree that elites are another story.

Now I do my benchmark with SB/Azmodan instead of Ghom.

eventhough it is crappy but still felt exciting when see the light, at least not making the farming so bore

hi.. may i know any way can achieve that?

LS only available on weapons right? so assume 2 weapons with total 5% LS

so LoH will be on amulet + 2 rings? 800 + 600 + 600?

Sorry for bringing misunderstanding, I meant MP10 Ghom is easy. Not others as I am still struggling on other bosses.

It depends on what kind of DPS you want to achieve.

If you wanna build a 60K DPS monk, it's very cheap for LOH+LS gears. those 700+ dps items, I got mine @ 2-5mil
If you wanna build a 70-90K DPS monk, the high damage weapon with LOH+LS will cost you a lot of gold.  those 900+ dps items, got mine @ 26.5mil & LoH only 700+
If you wanna build a 100K DPS monk, it is difficult because it very rare to have high damage weapon with LOH+LS. And those weapons could cost you few hundred millions gold.  those 900+++++ dps items, with 70%CD + socketed, AH shopping rarely seen, if see also starting from 100+ mil

(note: LOH weapons that i mentioned above are those with at least 850 LOH).

reinforcing ALeUNe's point in what to look for in AH.

then can i say that life steal is good for a 100K+ DPS barb but not so good for a 100k+ DPS monk?

Barb life steal can go up to 12% (6% weapon + 3% belt + 3% passive) but monk only max at 6% weapon.

if both crit 200k damage:
barb = 200K * 12% * 20% = 4800 LS
monk = 200K * 6% * 20% = 2400 LS

am i calculated correctly?
*
Yes the calculation is correct.

But due to the nature of monk play style vs barb play style, we had to stand and whack where barb just throw/spin around. They definitely had more advantage.

I rather sacrifice dps to have the survival gear. That is why I am having a hard time pushing myself up beyond 70k dps. My next upgrade will be +CD +IAS and any gear I touch would results in reducing of my unbuff-non STI armor.

unless I had enough budget for a 1k+dps socketed +80%CD LS LoH which I don't, I can only hope for a farm drop.

Wassap dear fellow Lohan brothers, sexy white hair nuns.

As you all know, i'm a wizard from the Istari island. Recently, the monk character has trigger a lot of interest (actually it always has, lol). I decided to make a new character where monk tops the list of my choices. I become vegetarians for the past weeks just to get a feel of it and to make sure i'm one with everything. I'm able to balance my zen too although i do have munchees occasionally.

Anyway, what are among the popular builds for monk?
*
As far as MP3 is concern, aim at least 50k dps with 5k armor + 500AR, 30k hp at least with 5% LS+1k LoH. as usual stack as much CC/CD/IAS.

I'd argue that Shenlong's Hadoken (blue) is more like Ryu's. Hellfire ring's Hadoken (red) is more like from Akuma.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

My AR 550 + armor also in the range of 5k+, no problem surviving mp7, need to keep spamming overawe to counter the slow killing. Worst case I just switch on paramonk mode with sti + Moe ht. As long as you can effectively keep your hp up.

I will go mia for a week for holiday away from d3, so wish all monks happy farming.

I think my EF+Sickle can let me farm MP3 effectively. Anything above will have impact on my life regain (EF+Sickle had just 2.9%LS, 0 LoH sad.gif )

One thing good about EF+Sickle is against Magda in IM. She is either feared or stunned which give us more room to play against her arcane.

Holy cow..1280 loh plus 2.9 LS not enough ka? 600Ar abit low..but I sitting at 36k life and 90k DPS. I have no problems killing reflect mobs..its only minions which carries RD afflix. There seems to be some difference between RD Elites and RD minions...as RD minions seems to refelct way more damage compared with RD Elites. When I see RD minions + molten+ waller..its usally revive 3-5 times. Its just plain crazy...other than that, no issues against most Elites..

shakehead.gif And I don't really differentiate minions or elites because most of the time we will be tanking in between them. Most of the time I target the elite boss, as he got more hp and one extra affix. By the time he is down, those minions are most likely KO'ed by the Sweeping winds.
