50k hp
420 res
3.5k armor(unbuffed)

i would recommend a 9/4 wailing host > unity imo


Wailing Host is a great ring too. Yep yep. How's the pricing on those? Haven't looked at those for a long time.


And oh.. res is pretty gay and it's with single lifesteal. I would go with Litany 9/7.

Got it.

By the way, I'm almost done with monk skill list. I'll make a separate topic with bold and pink color for it maybe tonight or tomorrow.

It'll pretty much list out the viable builds that we can use.

Sort of stuck in a rut, as far as upgrades go, was thinking about making the switch to an allres monk.

Also not sure why URL tags never work for me, is there an option I have to enable?

Hm, is there any particular reason why mp8 act 2 feels tougher than mp10 act 1? And why do I find more essences on mp8 act 2 compared to mp10 act 1?

sure i'm going to get called a noob but whatever

Here's how to make an awesome dps monk that can tank any mp easily, depending on gear ofc

-stack a certain cheap type of res on gear and take one with everything passive (your gear is never too good for this and there are many places you can get this practically free (jewlery/shoulders/bracers)
can't beat the dps/mitigation/cost trade off you battle with all gear

-2 weapons with life steal, monk is a regain build, half the regain is half as tough which is fail, even if you can gain 15% dps from extra crit damage etc you loose the ability to tank high mp's

-Sweeping wind+cyclone+high crit chance, cyclones get a massive bonus from crit chance as they depend on it for creation as well as damage, when fighting multiple enemies cyclones make up a very large portion of your dps

-no prowlers (not worth the dps/survivability trade off) get rare or crafted with dex/vit/res/all res/crit

-NO ECHOING FURY!! even if it adds +15% dps from the attack speed you loose the ability to tank stuff together and have to chase half the enemies around, ultimately you end up doing about half the dps you should be, its fine if you can't survive normally but it is NOT your ultimate goal

-once you reach a certain toughness life is not as important as you would expect, its a regain build so if you can regain more than you take in damage your life will go up, start taking too much damage and life starts going down and then you tend to die, its just a matter of when. Life is still important though as its needed to absorb particularly sharp damage spikes (using dodge can cause this) or it gives you more time to get out of difficult situations/survive longer when stunned

-free skill slot (serenity if having trouble, dashing strike/stun (very usful for movement/combat positioning etc), kick+scorpion (good aoe dmg+stun=win)

-seize the initiative passive once dex is high

-if having trouble surviving/progress runs i find pacifism passive very useful, turns getting stunned from a really nasty situations to a really nice one where you seem to regain all your life for some reason
-otherwise combination stike+deadly reach/forsight as well as your fists of thunder, if using blazing wrath your looking at 50% sustainable dps increase, when you combine this with overawe spam+everything tanked together taking massive cyclone+thunder+3rd hit damage you dish out some massive dps

here is profile
http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Deldra-2727/hero/26451355

PROS
Awesome survivability, face take all enemies in any mp
Awesome damage output
Great all round character, good for all situations
Really fun to play with lots of stuns/teleports


CONS
Lower on screen damage
Fairly generic skills

Hello, im thinking about regrearing my p100 monk, got like 1b-1,5b to spend. I will probably go for Won Kim with ls and socket, and other weapon? Tbh no idea, yellow one with ls socket dex and cd or ef with socket cd dex or socket ls dex, idk what is better. Another thing is helmet- low crit mempo like 3\4 depending on price. Rings- Nat with 6% crit and dark ress, since it will be my main res to stack. No Ina`s pants, cuz i got 6% crit lacuni with little dex and armor and str- not that bad imo, and nat boots with dark ress. Here is my main question, do u think i can farm efficiently mp10? Hp and ress are bothering me- no idea if like 800 vit( from gear), 40% hp and 700-800 ress ( after passive) will be enought. DO i need that 5%+ ls? I will be running light build probably, and because of that- is ina`s belt better that wh?. Im Expecting to have 50%cc+

Would be awesome to hear your answers about it, cuz once i spend my money it will be too late to fix if something is wrong :P Sorry for english thou
