your stats seem fine to me... could use some more vit but maybe try earth ally instead of sweeping wind?

id drop transcendence and pick up guardian since you're dual wielding. the dodge helps a lot

why run NDE then? feel like thats a waste of a slot when you could be running one with everything, seize the initiative, and resolve

I have a question.. why does plague/molten/ground aoe stuff like that own me so much. Is that normal? I dual wield 5900 armor, 812 all res, 47 dodge.. I could own act 3 easily if only I didnt have to run and hit vs any aoe junk...... I saw krip on his stream yesterday on a "440k budget barb" or something like that standing in plague like nothing so dunno why I should get owned so much when I spent like 70mil+... only reason I can think is.. shield is needed way more than I thought...

[QUOTE=LEON69,Jul 1 2012 08:47pm]shit i didnt know i was a DPS monk too

Hello DPS monk brother!

use fot + thunder clap

my mf gear is 2.15 attacks per second and i had to stack attack speed % on almost every single item :/ It's REALLY expensive if you want to have 2.2 in act 3/4, doable in Act 2, I feel (still averaging 2 mil a piece)

weap: 10% dagger
helm: tzo krin
chest: tal rasha
rings: 9%/6%
gloves: 9%?

gear that's missing ias: amulet

I had to make quite a few trade-offs... resistances and armor being one of them, but LOH (1000) has made up for that. There are pieces that will further increase my attack speed, but at a huge dex/resist/armor loss, so i didn't do it. My gear was targeted at farming Act 2 in patch 1.03, and it works! Some packs still give me trouble though... Blazing Guardians with a bad combo comes to mind...

I don't know why you guys are getting owned in Act 3, but I'm doing it fine without LOH.

Only difference we have I guess is the DPS? But that shouldn't even be an issue since you should be able to stay up longer with LOH.

Affixes that rape me: Vortex or Fast with Molten on monsters that always run/kite, give that to a Phasebeast and we'll be playing the kiting game or just totally skip that pack lol. I rape Horde/Illusionists with Backlash.

Maybe change your playstyle? Skills?

a lot of it is probably playstyle/skills. though it also looks like your res is pretty high w/o OWE so maybe that helps free up a passive for you
