half true. but when ur FoT suddenly pops you in range, that's it.

it doesn't take you to stand directly in front of the hellbashers to be hit by the hammer. the aoe will do, any direction.
everytime i bump into that sitting/dying soldier in keeps lvl3, "oh no shyt this BUN-lookalike champ with groups of hellbashers behind the door again"

it's easy to tell by the sound of the swing of the hammer too. but then most of the time i listen to gaming music when i play d3  rolleyes.gif  rolleyes.gif
it's rather noisy i mute my d3 all the time
*
Most of the time when I see them swing, I just blind/7ss/Serenity our worst case is all also CD, I press space (assigned to move) and walk away. my build have all those oh-shoot moment

bros need some input on the monk i am leveling...what's the ideal atk speed for monk?..though more seem 2 be better but i am gonna be using my gear from my dw wield dh..which provide 10cc from archery..so if i gonna use the gear from my dh for my monk is there a way to up my cc either than nat ring and boots?...or should i stack more ias so it procs more cyclone?..this is my dh for reference http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/bububoo...25/hero/4272031
*
yup. other than cc from rings (3 is kind of low, 6cc is max), amulet (10 is max), gloves and helm, you should try to get Nat's boot and Reflection to get a set bonus of 7%cc. you can use that for your DH as well. since you already have inna's belt, consider getting Inna Pants... it's really good. you gain IAS and movement speed, and 1%cc, and in set, you gain 130 dex as well.

IAS can increase cyclone, but CC is better than IAS when it comes to generating cyclone.

actually, i'd recommend any high DPS weapon with socket will do for main hand. but if money no object, get it with Crti Damage, LS, LoH, Dex and Vit. tongue.gif

Just in case if anyone still not aware, there is a bug with Sweeping wind that is not fix yet (tested):

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/7004448569

You may have notice, your sweeping wind do more damage if you cast "Blind Flash" (30% dmg rune) then follow by Sweeping Wind. I have been using that combination for a long time without really exploiting this. Things just go down faster with that combo.

The thread above "exploit" that to the max by changing gear for example to 2h and cast all buff to increase the DPS to max, then only cast Sweeping wind. After which, you can switch back to your favorite dual wields and the Sweeping Wind damage is still high, even after you refresh it.

I tested this with Azmodone, using 2H, buff, etc just before I cast Sweeping Wind, then switch it back. It is surely faster.

actually, i was using andariel visage before, but since mine has poison+all resist, the additional fire damage is nothing to me. in fact, after i change to a Inna's Radiance with Poison + Armor, the HP go down faster when I am on Descreator. (but i got additional HP from Radiance too)

LPSS is my favorite skill in the game. It goes neatly with spamming on MoC. I used to have 120 LPSS and own everything without any LoH and LS. But playing higher MP, I still need LS+LPSS. In fact, right now, I have LS+LoH+LPSS.

the trend is...with 200 dex

vit value < 50...er i think sell under 10M G lol..if even so ur lucky...

90>vit value>50.. can go 70M G> sellable price > 20M G

vit value> 90 can go sellable price > 70M

got life%/ pickup radius/ single resist?..figured out along the lines given.. biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif

too much vile ward with good stats or same stats piled up the GAH nowadays..its like becoming the new inna's radiance drop down price item...

with vile ward..is always about the vit..the prime stats people know usually it will be high, confirm got AR, usually with >200 armor++, or straight forwardly speaking for vile ward its about the HP races.....

below 200 dex?...lol sell it at max 5M ... biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif

nice! that's very insightful! after i check prices, i initially set at 11m (str) and 10m(int) respectively. hope that i got luckly, if no one buy it, i will reduce and keep reduce until i sell it! it MUST go! no more space... i love space...

just sold 1 "Dead man's quiver" at 1m only... cry.gif

ps: an anderial's visage with socket at 1m also... ALL MUST GO!

if i set min=buyout, i can cancel anytime and reduce the price as needed, or put other gear on sale.

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.

been using SoJ since 1.04.... no other ring can give me this much DPS boost.

Ghom MP10 - 3 mins 41 seconds!

MoC + Overawe
LS = 6%
LoH = ~600

Would like to test if I can use MoC in MP10. It will surely benefit the party. blush.gif

cow, you should really use moc in mp10, my friends love it very much. die die la let them revive. just make sure we had at least 5%ls.
last night uber mp10 so syok, with a warcry throw barb, perma freeze wizard, mark of dead dh. and our moc helps alot. ghom+raka 3min. sb+zk 8min, sk+magda 8min.

MP10 uber in 3 mins??? awesome! i m so glad i didn't ignore defense in my pursuit for DPS. tongue.gif

talking about DPS, i just bought Tal Rasha's Relentless Pursuit for less than 1 mil. blush.gif (good idea guys!) give me another 9% IAS! with my Witching Hour, i got 2.16 IAS! awesome! however, this setup is only for farming in MP3/4. i have to sacrifice a lot of Resist for this. not suitable for higher MP.

that got me thinking, it has become clear to me that i need like 2 set of gears;

1) High DPS, low defense farming in low MP
2) Lower DPS, higher defense for uber and party fun

This is my latest monk detail, some ppl say they nerd the life steal.. Whats the meaning of that? Which part can i do the upgrade and since the mempo so expensive lately..
*
yup, LS is only 20% effective in Inferno. example:

100k DPS
6% LS
Life you get = 6k in any difficulties except Inferno
Life you get = 6k % 20% = 1.2k in Inferno

Mempo is only useful if you can find 1 with 6 crit chance, otherwise, consider Andreal's Visage or Inna's Radiance.

I love monks even more now..lol

anyway, hoping to find mor imba monk friends here to farm/uber at high mp..pls add me/pm me ur tag.

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.
*
i think DPS is important, but no until you have to sacrifice too much defense until you cannot use Overawe. in my case, i was willing to let go like 10k DPS in exchange for 48% Overawe, which in turn will give me a lot more damage.
