...just want to show up in Page 1.

KLCC Chili's for buka puasa!? Well, I've seen Muslim people starts to queue up from 6.00pm onwards and there's always a long waiting list.

There is a monk who loves to spam cyclone until my wizard is killed eventhough the elites have been perma-frozen.

Well, if I can still recall correctly ...no gear can kill elite packs faster and easily other than a 6% cold 30% BvE SoJ featuring SW for monk.

So I take it that WoL > SW after the latest monk's skill buffs and nerfs respectively.

Is there a monk that loves to brawl here?

My DH would like to issue a challenge.

Kindly take it as a sparring session, all monks are welcome.

Attn! to all monks, please feel free to join my DH for brawling.

I understand your monk can pimp up to ~400k dps so should be able to squash-kill my toon, instantly by dropping the "bell".

...invitation accepted then let's go brawling afterwards!

ItemPassive_Unique_Ring_570_x1 - Damage increased by 15% to targets that are slowed or stunned.

This ring definitely has a lot of potential.

...that's the 1 billion "gold" still-elusive answer to me so in the meantime, my dex-based DH toon has to use a cheaper alternative of Tyrael's Might as placeholder.

Amitābha, mahaMonk!

My apprentice monk with 2.49aps would like to know if there is an attacks per second breakpoint that needs to be achieved for better Sweeping Winds proc.

Deckard Cain, DeathTh3Cannon, present me, ALeUNe and cowithgun, ...thanks for your kind responses.

After running around VoTA map from P21 to P31 mostly, solo MP10 sessions and occasionally, with a few party members (present me, faheem and Deckard Cain, separately), my own understanding of the monk character class has been revised completely.

I've come to realise that in order to ensure survivability, the service of a high fear factor (17.5%) Echoing Fury is fast becoming a necessity unfortunately nonetheless, I'm able to pair it up with a ls and os Won Kim Lau interestingly.

Feel free to critique both the active and passive skills of my monk as follow;-

Active Skills
1. Fists of Thunder -Thunderclap
2. Dashing Strike -Quicksilver
3. Serenity -Ascension
4. Mantra of Conviction -Overawe
5. Cyclone Strike -Implosion
6. Sweeping Wind -Cyclone

Passive Skills
1. Resolve
2. Seize the Initiative
3. Pacifism

Gameplay
Activate DS -Quicksilver then followed by CS -Implosion and perform SW -Cyclone instantly. FoT -Thunderclap made it so easy to stick with your constantly feared target and don't forget to spam MoC -Overawe, every 3 second. Finally, Serenity -Ascension is hardly ever use except in the most difficult situation.

Forgot to mention that my monk will use a main stat, ls and os rare sword called "Horrid Slayer" that belongs to my wizard (which is meant for archon build) in a party game as a replacement to the fearsome Echoing Fury.

...see post #443.

EF is truly spectacular if I must say so for solo play when I want to see everything running away from my formidable monk because they're all scared ...hehehe.

yuhhaur, ...thks.

I'll try Exalted Soul since I don't think Resolve is impressive and also, would drop Seize the Initiative for Transcendence to capitalize on the spamming of many high spirit cost skills.

I must make it a point to try either Blinding Flash -FiTL or Breath of Heaven -Blazing Wrath as a replacement to Serenity.

Check Invis#2291 by the courtesy of diabloprogress.

The main stat, cd & os Spear mainhand and 18.4% fear factor & ls EF offhand combo allows for the establishment of highest sheet dps.

Of course, don't underestimate the actual potential of a Won Kim Lau eventhough its sheet dps is much lower.

Feel free to critique both the active and passive skills of my monk's latest build called EFearsomeWKLFist as follow;-

Active Skills
1. Fists of Thunder -Thunderclap
2. Dashing Strike -Quicksilver
3. Breath of Heaven -Infused with Light
4. Mantra of Conviction -Overawe
5. Cyclone Strike -Implosion
6. Sweeping Wind -Cyclone

Passive Skills
1. Exalted Soul
2. Seize the Initiative
3. Pacifism

Gameplay
Activate DS -Quicksilver then followed by SW -Cyclone and perform BoH -IwL instantly. FoT -Thunderclap made it so easy to stick with your constantly feared target to get out of the heavily covered with elemental attack areas and don't forget to spam MoC -Overawe, every 3 second. Finally, reel in your victims by the use of CS -Implosion.

Vital Statistics by the courtesy of d3up
Summary
Weapons = A high fear factor of 17.5% + osRuby Echoing Fury (MH) and ls + osEmerald Won Kim Lau (OH)
DPS = 228k
EHP = 618k

Notes:
How to handle RD with 2.9% ls and 352 LoH? Just simply move WKL over to MH and swap in a 34% block + cc StormShield ...insignificant problem is solved!

ALeUNe,

Thanks for the skills suggestions, I'll be sure to give WoL a spin. However, Thunderclap is simply incredible with WKL period so that means Breath of Heaven -Infused with Light gets the boot for now.

My belief is in for a monk character class has got what it takes to stay alive with ~3% ls and no more. Never let RD affix to convince us to settle for more ls and thus, weaken our tdps . So, that means it's ~3% ls + possibly, 300k dps for WKL ultimately.
