Rare belt with 100+ res, 100+ dex, 100+ vita >>>>> SoE

Why is that?

Also, does anyone have a spreadsheet for monks? I can't figure out what to upgrade next...

Save serenity for really bad situations, use one of tele skills to get out of fire if you can't walk out, if you're definitely going to be hit by arcane try to walk towards it (so contact time will be as small as possible) etc.

Fast attack speed + big LoH to regain life; big res; and I imagine movement speed would help here, but it's not really a must have.

whats an ideal amount of loh to have? the new upgrade does certainly work better just gotta save up now to further upgrade, was jsut trying to figure how to handle the vortex molten acane dese guys

melee doesnt kill you. molten, arcane, etc will kill you. more dex/res > 20% melee reduction imo

hey guys...

today i found a ring with the following stats:

160dex
67@
31fr

othet stats doesnt matter atm...

is this suitable for a fire monk or is it absolutly neccesary to look for crit and crit modifiers on a monk ring?

thanks for your help

I'm a DW monk (using 2 daggers) and here are my stats (stats are after enchantress but before mantra of evasion + hard target). I'm currently farming act 1 but some affix (waller/vortex) still makes me nervous especially in dungeon. What should I focus on upgrading first? Also, with my critical chance (15.5%), is it better to use Blade Storm or Cyclone rune for sweeping wind?

I farm Act 2 with maybe 70 more resists than you, but I have about 1000 more armor. I'm thinking that the problem might be your skillset because our stats are so similar o_O I also have a shield.

It's suitable, but it eventually needs to be replaced. Although dex/ar/fr are important, ring slots offer unique stats like crit damage and life on hit. You can use that ring if you make up for that stuff elsewhere.
