Just drop it from your skill setup. See if you survive or not.
I did the Ghom@MP10 without serenity.

Put it this way, you still die when you fight certain bad-ass elites, with or without serenity.

It is doable for sure. But I don't see a point to drop it.

MYR25,000??

Awesome ring. Test the MP10 Ghom fight again and find out the increase of your damage output.

LoH has better proc coefficient. Thanks to FoT.
(Just like WD's RoT, where LoH outshine LS. I reckon it is the skill).

i.e.
http://d3up.com/b/227509#skills
I have 2.3% LS in my build.
With my build, every 1% of LS only recover 153/hit average with FoT.
Even I have full 6% LS, I can only recover 918/hit average - which is very low.

FoT can just proc higher life recovery with LoH (as compared to LS).
However, exploding palm scales much better with LS.
LOH or LS, it is the skill you use.

http://d3up.com/b/227509#skills
Read the link and you'll know coefficient LS/LOH depends on skill.

Some skill work better with LS, some with LOH.

Same DPS, LS & LOH, in the same build,

with FoT,
LS - 351.96/hit avg
LOH - 1758.75/hit avg

with exploding palm,
LS - 1725.04/hit avg
LOH - 1407/hit avg

DCTwo is my friend from Hong Kong.
A Hong Konger.
He must be freezy cold playing D3 at 4am this morning.

You lose 12% EHP. You gain 6% paper DPS.
I don't think it is a good move.

Paper DPS doesn't reflect the whole picture.
I "downgrade" my DPS recently but my real damage has increased.
You may want to look at those gears.

Your belt can be replaced.
But you will have lower EHP due to loss of AR and may be VIT.

Use d3up to simulate your gear and find out your EHP.
I believe your EHP will go below 500K if you use TWH (more than 10% drop).

If I were you, i would replace a better belt, that boosts up both DPS and VIT (not necessary TWH).
Then, i think you need to upgrade your weapon.
Get a higher DPS Shenlong or go for EF/WKL combo or other better weapons.
Replace weapons could be the easiest way as it is likely you can keep your AR/VIT/EHP.
It's going to be costly though. I guess any most upgrade after 120K DPS is going to cost you a lot. Just be ready for that.
(Well, the cost could be lower if you want to have a "glass cannon" build)

P/S Get a better Vile Ward. It's bloody darn cheap now.

Yes, the "paper" DPS is generally lower.
For WKL, it is the real damage that matters. Generally you get additional 18-20% damage from your "paper" DPS.
Besides, it scales.

As I mentioned before, WKL is pricey.
Before you get it, try look for other weapon that has 20% higher "paper" DPS.

I can lend you my EF/WKL if you want.
You can test it.

You have good EHP generally.
Yes, going TWH is a good move.

I think it's not only rend.
He must have used ignore pain too.

Zhong used his shield?

He got all the uber gears in his stash.
Stormshield is cool to have. Even Moba has one for triple-protection.

hahaha... I don't mind wearing it during PvP if it can give me additional 1 million EHP.

800m for a top chest armor is way too low.
At least 2 billions.

Ask him to pay or walk away.

Honestly speaking, 800m is way way too low for a godly gear.
Looking at current economy, 800m is not really huge amount too.

Good DPS but he will likely get 1-shot in current PvP.

Speaking of marquise gem, you can simulate your gear through d3up.

I see a drop if i replace the emerald with ruby in my weapon.
