QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Nov 2 2012, 12:31 PM) the only reason to use MoH is time of need +20% AR life regen and its shield boon and + 20%, has nothing to do with 16% dps increase. spamming MoH only allows higher regen, and applies a shield buff (which is mostly useless lol) read guiding light passive: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/class/monk/passive/guiding-lightso by right, MoH's HOT (healing over time) shouldn't apply. EVEN IF however it does apply, MoC still yields 24% dmg scaling and 48% upon activation, and you can still use BoH (15% urself) to add another 16% to yourself and whoever that is healed and BoH is guaranteed to work without a doubt. yea im aware of the MoC>MoH priority. im only running on that when there's already a monk in my party member because MoC doesnt stack. the healing part, the dps does increase but it's because we all spam our mantras (same way for MoC), the dps doesn't increase by the auto heal rune itself. MoH was my last priority, i never wanted to use that unless i had to. the heal is pathetic. BoH with blazing wrath does a better job for me.

QUOTE(yuhhaur @ Nov 2 2012, 12:02 PM) Well, you can't have the best of both world (even with masterkad) as the item roll that much of stats. stacked AR/CC/CD/IAS/Dex/Vit and you left that much of slots for other stats. If roll Str/Armor/one resist again, 6 stats per item is not really enough. And you also need to roll socket/life%/movement spd/pickup radius/etc... That is why I had low dps. Well, I have chosen this way anyway. Added on November 2, 2012, 12:07 pmTry it, 1.5k LoH+2.xLS with 600AR mp7/8 should be no problem for sure to your 120k dps monk. Don't know about mp9/10 thou. Talking about MP10, ytd tried and get one-shotted by white mob  Bro you need high HP (40k+), armor and resistance... you havent take the mp10 butcher challenge yet...

keep the glove, not easy to find a trifecta glove.
bracer wise, there are only 2 legendary choice: Strongarm & Lacuni. Strongarm roll is rather linear due to its +1 props. Pros is the CC+Life% and good Armor Lacuni roll is challenging as it has +3 props. the base att spd + MS is good to have.
Demon set is not worth mentioning.
rare bracer is rather cheap. I got mine for 800k only.

By the popularity, usually the gear will be like Pants- inna temp Shoulder- vile ward Boots- nata blood footprint Ring- nata deflection Belt- the witching hour Suit- inna vast or blackthorns Helm- andariel or inna or mempo Amulet - blackthorn (if u use the suit then u may want to combo for bonus 100 vit) Rest- rare
Did I miss out anything?

Lacuni more for the MS. You really need to aim at least 22 MS....if you got Inna's giving you MS the n you can ditch lacuni. Bracers just look for rare which gives you 6% CC with highest AR. If you are a cold monk I can offer you a 6 CC, 77AR 46 Cold r and 93 Dex bracers. I think for bracers dex is capped at 200 max...

Sometimes I find that if we wear too many legendaries/set, it will somehow hinder the creativity of gearing.

i tried to searched for belts but witching hour looks lame to me compared to rare belts.. i find a lot of items can only allow me to stack AR+fire resist if they're RARE, anything beyond that (LEG/SET) gives high boost of main stat (DEX) but the resist part is reallllly pathetic, and if it comes with a LIIIIIITLE bit of VIT, it's gonna cost at least 200mil. thx for the quote.. up there.. really expensive for all these upgrades Added on November 2, 2012, 3:08 pmQUOTE(sangtupperware @ Nov 2 2012, 03:02 PM) actually its true?...im an arcane resist monk at first...but after a while i change to fire bcuz..well like u said above..  not really sure.. i thought it would help me on molten and desecrator elites because elites have quite a number of fire attribute skills , and only 1possibility of cold (freezing thingy) or 1 possibility of arcane (sentry) i can think of now i konw why i lost all my bid... u're on fire resist too jus kidding This post has been edited by paranoid: Nov 2 2012, 03:09 PM
