ps: Still cannot compare to other class which almost reach Grift 40 (yeah, i m looking at u DH!)

The highest grift solo for DH at leaderboard is 41 now.

Other class can't really catch up for now.

It seems Blizz has fixed both defence and offence for Monk.

well, i never try in t6 yet. but at t4 less than 5 sec can kill elite packs

Is it blue or yellow pack?
I don't have flying dragon. Still using dual-wield.
Killing blue pack like 5-7 seconds, yellow 10-12 seconds at T6.

I need to know time needed to kill a pack elites for optimized build.

If normal rift on T6, maybe 3-4 sec.

GRift have to see what level, on GRift 33 if lucky get proc from Flying Dragon maybe 10-15sec depending on the affix.

Get those affix with nightmare, and like to run then longer, we melee class really annoying, if cool down on Ephi.

Is that blue pack or yellow pack?
It is 2h flying dragon daibo, right?

May I know the damage of your decoy?
With flying dragon, you can spawn 2 decoys?

Depending on your DPS and Holy Elemental as Decoy explode as Holy Damage.

My Decoy explodes around 100-130mil.

You can spawn as much clone as possible as long as you have used up 75 spirit and you have a high spirit pool.

Thanks. I'm still fine-tuning my monk.

I don't have holy SoJ. Stick to fire for now.

After days of testing skills and gears. I finally found a way to counter RD, frozen pulse, lightning, electric and firechain @ T6.
It was hurt shiat for my monk initially, even in solo game, especially the electric. Now I'm good to run ignoring most of the elemental damage with 1K AR and 17K Armor (buffed).

Found my below par Flying Dragon daibo. But it still delivers decent damage (100-140m against elites).
Yeap, it's fun to play monk again. Blizz has fixed monk's defence and offencee. thumbup.gif

For my build, I tried all mantra and passive/active skills with reduce damage.
Electric and fire chain were still hurt shiat @ T6 solo.

Cyclone strike/soothing breeze solves my problem.
Spamming cyclone strike combo with strongarm bracers.

bro you can try mantra of healing (need of time)can solve your both problem.
*
Healing is higher with Mantra of healing.

I found it not as good because I lose AR and armor if I use mantra of healing.
I keep my AR and armor (with Mantra of Salvation/Hard Target) and generate life through cyclone strike/soothing breeze.
It works better for me.

P/S
My skill setup
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk...bXWU!Zbbcba

I use deadly reach to have range attack.
Some monster like Mallet is damn hurt if I use other primary skills (FoT/CW/WotHF).
And mantra of salvation, either hard target or perseverance is good.
Can drop mystic ally for Epiphany (will swap Crudest Boots for Iceclimbers if I use Epiphany).

If you use IC/Epiphany, your spamming of MoS:HT is not as useful as spamming MoH:ToN as MoH heals you AND give you damage reduction.

If you use crudest boot, you'll be spamming Mystic ally instead.

But then the high fire% you had on gears is not optimized as there's no firespender in your skills beside deathly reach which had low damage compare to spirit spender..

I spam cyclone strike. I do not want to use fire cyclone strike because I want to spend higher spirit to spawn a decoy.
Cyclone strike/soothing breeze allows me to put in electric or fire chain elites without being killed in 1-2 seconds.
For monster like Mallet, I spam sweeping wind.

I used to use fire bell, which has higher damage on paper.
But it is not as effective as fire sweeping wind. Bell's killing time is almost the same sweeping wind.
Sweeping wind can deliver consistent damage. And the main damage comes from the decoy (100-140m against elites).

With fire bell, i need to spam cyclone strike + bell, which is not very good.
With limited spirit, it is better to spam cyclone strike, which you get life in return.

which makes your stacking of fire% kinda redundant. Maybe looking for gear upgrade?

With +74% fire damage, the fire sweeping wind (315%) and deadly reach (260%+100% with Depth diggers) give decent damage.
(p.s. +28% damage from strongarm bracers, combo with cyclone strike)

Yes, for sure I'm looking for gear upgrade.

Keep farming. That's what you can do for now.

Join other friends in farming your monk gears.
That's the fastest way to get your gear set.
If you are lucky, you can get a 3-piece Sunwuko + an RoRG ring in a night.
