check out my profile for gears.

there are a lot of variations in terms of skill build and itemization.

by the way, I use lifesteal WKL instead of EF for mp10 farming runs.

Few billion can definitely get you a nice monk that farms and ubers all mp lvl.

I've been gearing up monks on jsp for a long time and just this week, i've geared up three +1bil monks and they are doing pretty good. Have two more monks to finish at the moment.

Let me know if you have other questions.


would you say wkl is the best choice as an offhand ? or does it get beaten by rares at a certain point
does monk sweeping wind cyclones work similiar to barb where they only take dmg from the mainhand ?

WKL is the best offhand for monks who use thunderclap and cyclone in their builds, period.

Quick question: what's the minimum LS required to sustain a monk on high MP ? I got 160k dps with 40k hp, 6k armor and 471 resists with owe. I consider buying a weap that would get me to 180k but that would result in me dropping from 5.5 LS to 2.5. Is that something worth doing?

It' all about sustain and enough life to take one big shot in mp10.
Don't think 40K is enough for MP10. Charging bulls in A1 & Exploding guys in keeps2 will one shot you.
Try to get between 500 - 600 all res.
Dual LS weapons are more comfortable with refects for sure.
For nasty reflect, life link, jailer, arcane, desecrator, poison combo ... I swap my EF with LS WKL.
I can facetank Azmodan with one LS weapon, but my health will hover between 1/4 to 1/2 the whole time.
With dual LS weapons, health hovers between 1/2 to 3/4.
You can get new weapon, but keep the LS in stash for swap.

Your gears are pretty decent ... upgrades now will be expensive
Good life, armour, dmg ... need higher res and attack speed
Try to craft better ammy, bracers with all res or get Litany ot Undaunted with 9 / 4.5 / 7 and 60+ all res
Craft for Tri gloves
WH can have dex and more cd
boots 50+ more dex
Save up for cc Mempo + innas chest

Finally after 1000+ crafts ... I managed to craft a bracer with a little bit of dmg upgrade, but loss some vita and res.
Still waiting for a better one. Will craft some more gloves and ammy first.
Back to VotA to farm for more DEs.
Btw ... puzzle ring rocks ... already paid for itself many times over with the Tals chest he dropped.

Need some advice, not sure what to do at this point, most upgrades are well beyond a 200m budget, any ideas?
