It's weird because he seemed like a cool dude on ptr when I pvp him there. He played fine too. But nah dude, I got so sick and tired of it last night. +1.5 hour for first to 5 pvp match up.

If I didn't give up and kept on going, we are still doing it at 3-3 right now. Geez.

I knew he would come and read the topic. Funny how he answered me in game like a robot.

During the game, I'm like dude, seriously this is bm. Can we just come out of that island and fight? He would just go please follow the pvp rule and let me know when you are ready to continue.

I'VE BEEN READY TO PVP FOR THE PAST 2 HOURS. WTF

Then he comes out very slowly from island, taking like 5 mins acrossing the bridge. The whole time my wife and I are laughing watching him doing side stepping coming out of the island. I'm like literally not even moving for couple mins.

Finally he comes out, we engage for 5 seconds, he gets back into the island til he regen everything.

Geez. You win brother.

Oh! I played him. He beat me like 5-3 I think.

He's a cool dude. We talked when our matches were done.

His builds are great too. Wish he was on jsp.

Damn his guide is very colorful. Love it. haha

I should make a guide for us bell monks doing solo mp10 uber runs. I really don't know how to record a video though. My build was a little different for mp10 uber.

Just pvped this barb for d3cl. Won 5-4.

http://www.d3rawr.com/d-25Cf1

He was pretty tanky and played well.

I had to change my regular build to this for him.

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk#aeYgTk!Vcb!abcYaa

I swapped DW to Skorn for this build.

It was 4-4 and he was running straight in the open field, I popped blind/overawe and tele sss him. Lucky sss crits and 1 shotted him down.

Every round was like 3-5 mins long and the last round was less than 1 minute. haha Fun times.

Gotta pvp this top end DH again today. Gay. haha

Anyway, I picked up couple gears to tweak my spec.

With the gears, I'm at 100k dmg / 95k life / 7k armor / 650 all res / 2200 lps / 24k pot bonus / 24% ms / 6% ranged / 7% elite reduction.

I just want to get couple kills. Wish me luck! :D

If anyone wants to check out my gear set up, ask me in game. I dont want to reveal it here!

I usually kill barbs within sss stun / blind stun / overawe bonus for entire time. This is of course without IP on.

I used to do palm/skorn build against barbs on ptr, but it just wasn't cutting it for me. Since I couldn't generate enough fury to drop more bells for the burst dmg.

Then I switched to Dual Wield with faster aps (around 2.3/2.5), which lets me lock the barb and just keep on going at it whenever I'm engaged even when I don't have blind/serenity/sss up.

But, yeah, it all depends on how we play during the fight. :D

If something works for you, that's the right build!

bonus on potion is fking gg btw. it's gg against all classes.


Antichrist, I'll try your build tonight on my friends though. I'll use the same set up with palm flesh instead of overawe! :D


I tested more vs barb and using overawe seems to be better than palm. best tactic i found is to try to make the barb to pop his ip with bells and thunderclap and use serenity if his rend hits hard(he will hit you) and basically just tease him with claps + bell till he pops ip. and when he does, its best to go super offensive, even if your sere is down(ofc not if you are low on hp, but if your ehp isnt too low for pvp, his rend wont 1 hit you unless he is some class cannon crap) and pop blind with 30% dmg + overawe at the same time, sss(dmg rune) and if he isnt dead, bell him once or maybe twice if he is really low on hp.

first i was using skorn vs barb, but after getting a new spear, i noticed that good blind overawe sss hit can 1 shot my friends barb too(like 130k hp 800 res 8k def if i remember right litany and 3 piece bt), so i have been using spear + shield now. but im pretty sure i need to switch back to skorn when he gets more hp.

for passives, i still think that nde > that run passive
