my friend did 45 without EP

also the guy with the 52 on the top doesn't use EP

Need some opinions for a cold monk build as i keep finding cold gear.

This is what im running right now but are there any improvements i can do towards it such as gear or skills to make it better for grifts and clearing t6 even faster??

I usually use ep with the cold rune instead of sweeping wind but was running with another monk so forgot to change it back.

Let me know what you guys think as well as if fire or lightning is just better and lashing tail kick vs wol.

Typically wave of light with lightning is top.

For a support monk cold EP can be really big burst. Some people use it with bell, or the fire 20% damage gain Palm. Lots of options

Ahh yea. I cant find a lightning soj or gear which is why ive been using cold which doesnt do bad. Im debating over wave of light, lashing tail kick or tempest rush for cold builds since all i have right now is cold.

Also what gems should i use so i can stsrt leveling them up.

Pretty sure cold tempest is strong, but ask shawnboy, he seems to be the resident tempest rush expert.

I love cold tempest.. Working on trying to get 47 GR done. So far Im like rank 144 with it.

Gems? I'm using taeguk, bane of the trapped and bane of the powerful.

If you're doing bell you can also use a gogok

With my gear right now, would you recommend me using tempest or wol or lashing tail kick if i was the dps person or i was the single target killer

You're using innas, gungdo and incense torch... So bell.

If you have hexing pants and some crafting mats you could make the switch really easy.

Woot Wave of Light build SOLO monk leaderboard 149 at the time of this post.

Cold tempest is still my favorite, i just keep running out of mats trying for better stuff for her.

(both builds of mine have been on the solo LB tempest 44 WoL 46)

i hit the dust yesterday on grift 36

a mistake-a to make-a. didnt pressed serenity and tempest into group of elites. it was instant death. i guess 2 hits cause i didnt managed to see NDE proc. hopefully NDE in next patch will be better. it is to squishy without unity and one mistake got me

it was very fun char to play. will remake in 2.2 when will know changes to CDR. so WoL FTW, grift 40 here I come
