It will swing either way just that mace typically have slower attack speed than sword.

HOWEVER, if you are using spender like LtK, it takes it attack speed and damage from MH, so you best put in your (best) highest dps weapon on that hand.

i have the furnace last night. still wondering how good it is. tonight will play a bit with it.

was it me or molten hurts more again after this patch?

i recommend equipping high DAMAGE (not DPS) weapon in MH. look at the damage range instead of the big DPS number at the top. while Mace/Hammer/spear may has lower DPS due to low attack speed, but if their range is higher than your fist/sword, you should put the Mace/Hammer, etc in your main hand.

skill are calculated based on "weapon damage", which is the range, rather than on the big DPS number (range * speed).

Thanks for the clarification; so that big DPS number is basically all stat (% dmg, ats) factors considered into it? So kinda meaningless in actual application (e.g. execute spenders like LtK) other than ePeen?

HAHAHAHAHAHA OH GOD

try hard giler

the only ones who can solo T6 comfortably definitely is sifu cowithgun , btw I just did some testing on odynson is best paired with TF than WKL altho WKL has % lighting damage but the output damage felt slightly lower , btw I combo with my new build the damage is amazing but I think could go higher if i have the lighting raiment set or better gear.

All I can say is pair to the highest proc attack you have. - i.e Wothf- FoF

stack + Elite damage as much as possible, (legacy SoJ comes to mind)

and .....see t6 rift bosses balls shake when you take 50% of their life in 10-15 secs...

try furnace too

i mean i did some reading, first hit with the furnace then swap back to the dualwield higher dps? or reverse? hahaha...the furnace stat is like shit but the one i have with 8% dmg.

Yes....furnace is very good during early RG ..when RG life is 100%

The way furnace works is like crushing blow .. a percentage of the mob life that you damage. It doesn't matter what skills you use to inflict damage...the key is CAUSE damage and to proc the bonus when the damage is inflicted.

So assuming T6 RG is Butcher which has 4B hp.

Furnace proc rate is about 10% and based on skill. So each time furnace proc , it will hit 6-8% (lets assume its 6%) of the remaining life. So first proc, Butcher get whacked for 4B x 6% = 240M. The damage is white damage so the only thing that buff it is E bonus . Lets assume E bonus is 50%. So, 240 + (0.5 x 240) = 360M.

So, first proc causes 360M, second proc will be based on 4B -360M life...based on the same calculation. Hence, the life gets chipped away pretty fast.

I noticed I can chip away t6 guardian to about 50% in 15 sec due to the super high proc rate of Plague of toads.

After 50% ..swap back to your regular weapon ..and viola....

i see. but i tot you only need to proc the furnace once? is there a "period" of time? proc the furnace once, then switch back to main weapons?

edit: my mistake. after read properly the golden text, it is not DoT type. haha...

Dot type can proc Furnace bonus also..skills like EP..probabaly once procced, you will have to refresh..i.e palm again for it to proc.

Rend works with Furnace also...

btw are you sure 100fist got highest proc rate?
http://www.d3maxstats.com/?p=procrates&class=monk

also fof not lightning pun

and looking at that page makes me depress only lol

the coeff are just

For monks yes..

Fists of Fury: 75% on first hit, 18% on second and 100% on third.

The other factor is that FoF has dot..as holy damage. That has its own proc chance which miroors FoF.

Unfortunately, its not lightning but holy..

aaaannnd thats why i'm on FOT

Any monk tested Sunwuko+inna combo yet?

P/s : my monk just finish her long meditation

Yes... I tested this set combo.
With my setup, i can clear everything easily up to T4.
However, i can't do well in T5 due to low toughness and no elite dmg reduction gear.

I use cindercoat, law of seph spirits stone, sunwuko glove, shoulder n ammy, inna daibo n belt, rorg n 1 rare ring, captain crimson boot n pant, reaper bracer. Total cdr 46%.

skills blinding flash, air ally, epiphany, WoL explosive light, inner sanctuary, serenity.
passive exalted soul, guardian path, beacon of ytar, OWE.

With this setup, I hv about 700k dps, and i can drop primary attack and perma WoL.
When blinding flash 29% + Inner sanctuary 30%, I saw WoL crit 24m+.

Quite fun too. Pls try it, maybe u can have better result

The combo quite fun and good. However before blizz fix monk survivability i don't think it will works great at t6. Sad sad..
