Just coming back after months of idle... looks like people are gearing up slightly diff from before. No more WKL+EF? Any recos on how I should update for 1.08? I only have 90-100M to spend right now, unfortunately, but I'm slowly starting to farm again.

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Trickykid-1686/hero/8826460

3 primary questions:
1) Which craftable should i make with my essences right now?
2) Should I change my weapon set up for 1.08?
3) What's next upgrade I should save up for?

Any/all help appreciated! :D

I recently switched over to playing my monk because I finally got tired of my DH... kinda sad I realized it after 90+ levels.
Anyways, I'd really appreciate any feedback I can get with uping my monk. My funds are somewhat limited because I only have about 50 mil... should I focus on crafting and hope to get something good? My weapons are not that great but any significant upgrades are very pricy.

My goal is to be able to do MP10 runs (and hopefully ubers). I can do it right now (haven't tried ubers) but my dps is so low that it takes quite long to kill anything.

Should I change any of the skills? I wonder if I should use the Overawe Mantra instead of Time of Need... it would definitely increase my dps while dropping my buffed AR from 830 to 690. And how about my passive, should I get rid of Resolve and use something more useful?

Thanks!

overawe mantra is best.. 48% extra damage.. im 696 resist aswell, + 51k hp, which Works fine with just 2.9% ls.

You're using Combination Strike with only 1 spirit generator. I'd suggest using a different passive or changing blinding flash or something to another spirit generator.

Using only 1 spirit generator still gives 8% damage though. :) Whether one or two generators it's (imho) one out of 2 (STI is the other) must-use passives.

Using only 1 spirit generator is however something i could agree to argue against, as i'm dead certain deadly reach's 18% dps rune or blazing fists 15% attack speed is better than, and should replace, either BoH or Blinding Flash. The attack speed isn't just immense dps, but also more spirit > higher overawe uptime (or what ever you dump spirit on, any spec). And using deadly reach with Foresight is 18% for just pressing it + 8% extra from Combo Strike for a total of 26% damage vs BoH's 15%.

Guys,

My non blinding bells hits around 3-4mil per target.

And I think with the right gear set up, the number would surely go up. I'm gonna test more of this.


Nirvana monks are very fun. Use wit fist of flurry or whatever rune on the 100fist skill to leave a 5 second modifier thing that works with boh infused light. MASSS bell spam for 5 seconds. Mashing the bell key like a cm wiz LOL. I havent tried the explosive light rune yet. Just been droppin a shit ton of pillars of wall of light. Pillar had the least amount of knock back so far which is what i used in party play. Tweaked the build around and decided the best open slot skill is either cyclone strike or fot thnuderclap. Cause 100fist has bad manueverbility and i found i waste time moving closer to the target by manually walkin and that time coulda been spent spammin more bells during the 5 second frame (cause bells only have a small range that the aoe lands and where you can click them)
Will try the explosive light rune tonight n see how i like it as i wouldnt need as much manuverbility if that just hits everything on screen.

OK IM STUCK ON UPGRADES!!!

I could get an axe or sword (top ones on AH) which would give me around 5k dps increase for 2B.. but would it be worth losing the attack speed from my dagger? I have a feeling its not :(

UPGRADES TELL ME WHAT UPGRADES WHAT U SEE WHAT CAN I DO IM STUCK!!!
