why is ther not blinding flash/ and why to you have serenity <<< maybe for undergeared monks? and why the OWE passsive at your dps?


I can answer that, Blind doesn't prevent Elemental damage. Serenity does... I'm a noob and I've had it on my skill set for a long time cuz that is ur Anti Control spell / heal spell. Ur immune to ALL damage. and really asking about OWE? lol

That's exactly what it is used for. It's especially useful for when you get the urge to pulverize powerful elite monsters by yourself. Simply activate Serenity (Ascension) and go to work. :)

With over 200k dps and duel life steal wepons, shouldn't you be able to do this without serenity?

My own version of Quick Lightning Monk.

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/ceasarpineda-1743/hero/23197372

When I farm/Paragon level.
Cyclone Strike - Implosion instead of Serinity.
Mantra of Retribution - Transgression - extra ASI instead of Conviction.
Passives: Chant of renossance for extra spirit regen or Exalted Souls instead of OWE.
I sometimes swap Hellfire Ring with litanny when I level Paragon.
I prefer to use Enchantress for her extra armor and ASI.

When I do Ubers.
Swap litanny with 30% Soj
Blinding Flash - Faith in the light swap with of Cyclone Strike.
Mantra of conviction - Overowe swap with Retribution.
Passives: Beacon of Yatr swap with Chant of renossance/Exalted souls.

Upgrade is on hold since I am kind of bored with D3 at the moment.

With dual life steal, you can try. Sometimes you'll thank yourself for having that skill ready, especially when you face a very tough crowd.

I would only use Bell in Ubers.
Isn't that Holy damage?

I use bell with FoT thunderclap and sweeping wind just as a random damage boost

Yeah I do that as well but I like using Cyclone Strike - Implosion.
Also, Blinding Flash - Faith in the Light would give you more damage?
