Seriously..Mempo with CC is way overated....3% CC for 170M? Seriously....?? A good rolled Andy (dex +Vit) with socket cost probably 20% of that and gives 4.5% CC..but only works for a poison monk..smile.gif

for 170M I rather pay for a GG ring or amulet to get the extra 3% CC..smile.gif

Hey bro..tadaima..just got back from Japan?

I know what you are getting at..but it could be me with crap positioning but so far RD minions hurts a lot especially after the last hotfix. Prior to that no issues with RD minions. If you run into one pack of RD minions, you can test by attacking the minions and alternate the Yellow leader. I find that the yellow leader reflects way less damage compare with minions...my take is that minions reflect the same amount as the leaders..but when you SW minions..usually you are hitting 2-3 minions at one go hence..2-3 times RD back to you....so far I never gain life when I meet RD minions...even with 1280LoH , 2.9LS and 500 Regen..which based on my DPS and using FoT, I should regain like 4-5k per hit
*
I'm not going to Japan la... Just that Cow greets me with that.

1.0.5 we monk no longer can dodge RD. It was "FIXED" mad.gif by blizzard.

regain 5k per hit is not enough with RD packs. try aim for 7-10k (which in turn translate to about 5%LS+1500LoH)

Looking at your gear, it is really a pain in the arse to replace either your shield or MH, that two items are too good.

I dun understand, what so special about SoJ? I just can't persuade myself to ditch either of my ring for one of that.

Try me.

Well, for the SoJ case, I have stacked too much other stats in the 2 rings, getting rid of one is a pain decision to make. Until I farmed one, maybe I'll just take a note of it on paper tongue.gif

I think the rate won't go back up anymore. Might as well cash out.

Yes 2 sets of gears:
1. farming mp4 and below
- 12%MS (inna pants?) + 12%MS (boot?) + fleet foot 10%MS = marathon running monk.
- at least 7 pickup radius, more the merrier
- some form of spirit regen gear
- head with socket

2. uber mp10
- max armor+resist you can stack
- high LS+LoH (I got like 5.5%LS+800LoH), tried 3%LS+800LoH on ghom, very dangerous as hp fluctuate +-20k, if failed to dodge raka's attack, might gg.com
- 50% dodge (I prefer, optional) since almost everything except the fart can be dodge

hard to maintain nice dps + 5.5LS + 800LOH from weapons, that will cost lot of $$.
perhaps we can get 800 LOH from amulet & ring  hmm.gif

We don't need dps in uber run. Let them DH/Wiz/Barb (oops did I not mentioned WD??) to do the killing blow. Monk's appearance in uber run is to keep the ubers in tact & spam MoC.

That's pretty much not really true, I carry my group's mp9/10 dps in ubers while giving good buffs like MoC and guiding light.

then your team mate is not doing their job well... Or you just did a fantastic job.

300k dps dh/wiz or 200k barb still lose out to 150k dps monk?? whistling.gif

180k unbuffed dps, and my teammates pretty much do less or as much dps as me. My group is efficient, everyone does their job, but I'm still saying monk is not just a mantra b****, we can pull our own weight. Might as well contribute even more than just give MoC. Also our sheet dps is not the true amount of damage we're doing anyway.

Also, having a 300k dps dh or wiz means they are super gear and you're comparing with a 150k dps monk, which is averagely geared, so that's a bad comparison

You called that averagely geared sweat.gif I am half of that.

After spending 100mills of gold. Early this morning total regeared less then 2mill of gold i can face to face with Ghom MP10.. But at low dmg but still can play. going to improve on that.. Demm.. http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/SAMURAI...594/hero/828979

honestly speaking benchmark Ghom mp10 is very simple - 5%LS+1.5kLoH can do the job well even with only 50k dps.
try to use your gear against azmodan/siege breaker.

Has anyone tried 4 monks for ubers with different mantras?

Ohh and I managed to upgrade my dps to 110k dps unbuff. So far manage to farm mp5 efficiently only.

I gotta start adding lyn members for farming purposes. Farming alone is so boring!!!

yes we did have one back in November 11.

I think it will be 1 x (1.1 x 1.48 x 1.12 x 1.15 x 1.16) = 2.43 for the max effect but bearing in mind that we can't spam all skills in a seconds so, the sequence for best effect is 4-5-3-2-1

correct me if I was wrong


Added on November 27, 2012, 4:08 pmIncreases Fists of Thunder Damage by 5-12% (Monk Only) any good?

more screwed if you use 7SS -> 50 spirit. I used to spam MoC + flash + 7ss = 110 spirit. the killing part is SW -75 spirit prior of that. 1 sw = half pool gone.

I see your point. My build usually surrounds teamplay and the only reason i chose exploding palm was because my allies would also benefit from the +12% damage gained against elites as well with the MoC (24%/48%).

Blinding flash only affects the player casting it and thus making it an individual buff. Nevertheless, it gives some sort of crowd control for that brief period.

But you are right that if you were to incorporate exploding palm in your build would be futile and inappropriate by taking into consideration the spirit regen rate doesn't permit you to. If you have 4/5 Inna's set, your SW would only cost you 5 spirit per cast. On that token, I'm able to save 70 spirit while spamming exploding palm/MoC.

4 innas are too taxing to other stats. head+chest+belt+pants making you almost limited in investing gears elsewhere (lacuni, vile ward) which only left you with boot, rings, ammy & weapons to stack the rest.

only a total of +5 Random Magic Properties, no good.
