I'm having A LOT of trouble in a3 inferno.
Any suggestions on skills, or gear would help.
I can post all my gear if necessary.

All stats are unbuffed.

Well. Here are some things that I do differently.
First of all I dual weild daggers.
-they have 1.5 aps base speed. Dual weilding them you only need about 15% more ias to get over 2 attacks a sec.
I am at 2.1 now.
-this also enables you to lower your lph and get more dmg on your gear. If you hit over 2 times a sec vs your 1.x times.... see the math?
Secondly I have 31% crit chance and over 200% damage... 283 if I remember right.
-with those 2 stats and attack speed you can use the build I will link below and roflstomp shit. Yellow numbers abound!
Thirdly, build. I understand your setup because I used to run almost the exact same setup. I changed after seeing a setup on youtube and I never will regret it!
Here is the build.

Now if you stack crit and use your sweeping wind you will literally see your screen start to fill up with tornados. They don't hit hard but when you have 9 or more they do!

As I said it it a suggestion you may try. I always dislikes sss since it is easier to just step a yard to the side and tada.... out of shit anyways.

Good luck!

Thanks a lot, once I have the money to work on crit gear I will certainly try this out.

Not sure if srs or bad troll....

Anyways check youtube for the vid and guide.
Search for 1.03 crit monk guide.

And you can test it cheap. Pick a few blues up cheap for crit chance and try a1 once.

Also those tornados tick their dmg as fast as your attack speed is.
Keep that fist and pick up a dagger or other 1.5 or faster item.

What I have seen is that once you hit 3 stacks (1-2 seconds) tornados flood the area and body parts start flying!

more damage is not a sulution for ''having A LOT of trouble ''
more heal and less damage taken is (in your example monk, low on heal and low on CC-skills)

for that i use
spirit regen for CC-sks casting (over 17+) and combat effectivniss
life per spirit spent (over 180, for 7.2k heal/casting a CC-damage skill ones per sec)

also a viable method.
I am going to gear this way when I am a little more gold heavy.
Right now crafting is raping my gold income.
Stupid addictions!

I fucking hear ya there man. I made my first 3 gloves just out of boredom, and one of them sold for 1m, the other sold for 7m.
Needless to say, ever since then, I've been so addicted to trying to craft awesome gloves again.

By the way, I sold the gloves before 1.03, and now they would easily sell for 30m.

Want some 6 prop daggers lmk.
Best I rolled so far only had 712 dps but it had 296 str 200 vit and 380 lph... oh and crit dmg and open socket.
Ofc that was one out of a bajillion rolls.
If that thing could be dex and not str I would still be drooling over it.
Sold on rmah... took like 2 min to go.... should have priced higher.
