We need to discuss how monks will do at T6 level. How will you make your monk so that it can survive and sustain at T6 as well as deal damage.

I can think of a few ways.
1)Using a CDR build. Epiphany,Serenity,Cyclonestrike,Exploding Palm and SSS as the core skills. At 60-65% cdr and equipped with a SSS diabo, the cooldown for SSS(fulminating assault) can be reduced to like 5-6s which gives an effective 5677/6=946% weapon dmg a second.
SSS also benefits A LOT from %sss skills multiplier on shoulders and chest. Survivability can be achieved be rotating the cooldown of Serenity, Epiphany and SSS(which gives 2s of invulnerability).
2)Crowd Control using Stun fist and Blind Faith helm. These 2 items give a whopping 40%+ chance to stun and blind enemies. If they cant attack you, you won't take any damage. Also there is a Sultan of Blinding Sands which give another 40% blind, but im not sure if this stacks with the blind faith helm.
3)Perma Stun Bells with 40% crit chance. I remember when I just started out ros, I was able to cheese through level 70 content with my lvl 60 gears just with my stun bells. The stun bells has a really large AOE and with 40% crit chance, the enemies are stunned most of the time because it ticks 4 times(with the wave). The downside to using bells is it is a pathetic 461% damage(welldone blizz) making this a bad single target dps spirit spender. Area damage% is needed to make this build stronk.

What are your opinions to make a T6 monk?


I think you were my lucky charm.

Is there a build working around Exploding Palm? I just got THE FIST OF AZ'TURRASQ, with 100% on it. If i go into using exploding palm, what stats should I be looking for on my gear? Is anybody using a build utilizing this weapon?

wow nice.. i've been trying to hunt that damn diabo since the beginning...


also trying to get the ever elusive soj. im getting more and more jelly when other players who play less than me get the good stuff when i dont.

Anyways I think I might quit monk for now. Barb with the earthquake set+lutsock combo is so dayum good.

with molten fury and 3 stacks of earthquake, you can dish out 4500%dmg x 3 stacks / 8seconds = 1687.5% weapon damage per second. dayum....

Nice Diablo Kim,
So with 50% cdr and that Diablo ... you can use SSS in about every 5 secs.
That's sweet, now are that any gears that reduce cooldown of Serenity ?

I've seen that. It's insane.

Wish we have some cool monk set or legendary...

Like making the seven sided strike to seventy sided strike. LOL

Thanks!

Right now, it's 8.1 second.

30 x .54 x .50 = 8.1

I'm planning to add in Born's 3set + Crimson's 3set. That's 20%.

I'll probably get a new glove (no fire dmg now) with dex/vital/cc/cd/cdr (7%).

Not sure how much 27% additional CDR will translate to the actual CDR. I'm assuming like around 15% maybe? (Do you know how to calculate this Hunter?)

Hopefully SSS will be reset in 5.67 second (30 x .54 x .35) in the end.

Reset time when all done

5.67 sec - SSS
7 sec - Serenity
21 sec - Epiphany
5.25 sec - Blinding Flash


Just to compare, right now the reset time for the key skills are like this:

8.1 sec - SSS
10 sec - Serenity
30 sec - Epiphany
7.5 sec - Blinding Flash


By the way, I want to get rid of all Attack Speed for this build. All it is doing is draining my spirit while TRing around. It doesn't add any actual dmg to the SSS.

I don't think so. There's an amulet that increases globe drop rate, but only by like 4-6%

It's pretty interesting since I can be in invincible mode for 80-90% of the time at the moment.

As Hunter mentioned,
SSS gives me 2 seconds of invulnerability
4 seconds on Serenity
15 seconds of 50% flat dmg reduction on Epiphany
3 seconds blind on Blinding Flash FitL

When I can gather the rest of the gears that I want and be quite confident in pulling off the playstlyle, I eventually want to change the Epiphany rune back to Inner Fire and change out the Serenity for TR Tailwind.

By the way, that Born's chest was my 2nd roll. haha Popped 6 props that I needed. Haven't touched it yet. I can reroll the res to Lightning to boost Toughness, but we will see how it goes. I may eventually just drop OWE for Momentum.

CAN RNG GOD DROP ME A CRIMSON SET PLAN PLEASE? haha

Thought I'd throw in the CDR calculation explanations druin gave.

Formula for Calculating CDR

Total CDR = 1- [(1-CDR1) * (1-CDR2) * (1-CDR3) * ... (1-CDRn)]

Example --
You have 10% 20% 15% and 45% CDR from different sources ... your total CDR is ...
1- [(1- 0.1) * (1- 0.2) * (1- 0.15) * (1- 0.45)] = 1- [0.9 * 0.8 * 0.85 * 0.55] = 0.6634 or 66.34% CDR


Max Possible CDR on Monk

beacon of ytar -- 0.20
diamond in helm -- 0.13
paragon -- 0.10
shoulders -- 0.08
gloves -- 0.08
helm (kekegi) -- 0.08
wep1 -- 0.10
wep2 -- 0.10
ring1 -- 0.08
ring2 -- 0.08
ammy -- 0.08
cap crim set -- 0.10
born set -- 0.10
Total -- 0.7494
