dont be so sad bro. i see the upcoming changes are not that bad.

1. 1 Dex = 1 Armor, most of the monk have 8000+ dex, so we got 8000+ armor free.  rclxms.gif
2. Harmony replace for OWE, with 30% of single resist number stack into AR.
not bad as well, we no need worry on the gear to must have the same single resist.  thumbup.gif

Even taking armor into calculation, I actually have less mitigation (~20%) due to my heavy investment on OWE. See the calculation here:

I belong to case 2, I have 1547 poison resist. Need to re-gear... sad.gif

Don't know how they going to compensate that..we just have t PTR it and see how it goes.

IMHO, I don't like this change. Sure, monks needed to be buffed but by removing dodge form the game....defies the purpose of monk.

Might as well just roll a barb/ Cru then

Dex has same attribute as Str is.... disturbing... sweat.gif

Dodge gain Resist would have been a better idea since monk has so many dodge related skill, it was useless then, dont know whats gonna happen to these skills:

- Dashing Strike - Blinding speed - increased 29% dodge
- Cyclone Strike - Wall of wind - increased 20% dodge
- Mantra of Evasion - all runes - LOL!
- Passive - The Guardian Path - 15% dodge
- Passive - 6th sense - your dodge change increased by 42.5% of crit change

I can finally go OwE free like what I did in 1.08! rclxms.gif

/signed the OwE & STI Free Monk

Everyone will be OwE freed after 2.1 since it's no more. tongue.gif

I think the new Harmony will be just as mandatory as OwE for high torment.

Stacking All Resist is just too expensive since there are only 4 primary. Those are better used for Dex, Vit, life% and %skill damage / %elemental damage / socket.

very sad for me... i m totally depending on my high toughness (5th primary) for my Cyclone Palm build. it allows me to pull mobs to me, palm-palm-palm, and punch till 1 of them drop.

with 20% less mitigation (with OwE nerf), i may need to DS out, group of mobs start wonder around... attacking party members, etc...

not good... not good...
