get a new dagger with loh /dex/open soc

2k per tick? how on earth are you dealing 175k crits consistently in the first place

my hit + cyclone - easy 2k
even if unbuffed, i still heal 500-700/hit


hmm...yeah, my offhand dagger sucks lol, but dagger with loh /dex/open soc is soooo expensive

upgrade the off hand dagger to a base crit open socket darkblade or fist.
u should get some loh as well to compliment your life steal % and your life regen that is almost non existent since its such a low number (u wont even knowtice it with high hp). get lil more hp (40k+).

cause u shouldnt rely on only one form of healin. If you had way higher life regen per sec then ya you can just go the 5.xx % life steal, high life regen.

im goin on a guess...but im assumin since ur dodge is under 40%, ur using transendence or resolve? I find just using transendence's 62 life per spirit spent is not enough source of healin to go wit ur current setup of 5.xx% life steal and that low 2xx life regen.
so spec to guardian path for big dodge gain, get close to 1k loh, while still keepin ur current life healin (the life steal % and life regen...life regen can get more higher but wit 12M to spend, u pretty much can only afford a new weapon and thats it)

once u do that, u should be having no problem wit act 3. but keep in mind, act 3 n 4 gives EVERYONE trouble without knowin how to play so dont feel upset if ur gettin owned hard. certain mobs n creatures u gotta kite play them and rely on serenity a bit more. Those big things, if its a mob of them, i try to trap them on a door and deadly reach on them then when they are low health, jump in with FoT and serenity when my life get low to finish them off (save the serenity till ur almost dead to maximize it use). Skull revers, i have no problem with my high loh setup, i just beat the shit out of them and my cyclones help heal me as well. loh + life steal are my main heal factors other then serenity/boh.

u got pretty decent dps if that is unbuffed wit that dagger setup. pretty sure if u get a higher base dps weap with the same dex with base crit and open socket, should jack the dps up crazy (but 12M wont get u that so u might have to decide on just tryin to get a weapon with big loh + open socket for crit gem). sometimes survivability > that extra dps. if u can stay in battle longer and not die, u do more dps over time.

Wow...seems like i need 50mil+ *okay*, yeah im using resolve
thanks for your advice

EDIT: cyclone didnt proc LOH right?

So thats what my monks stats look like unbuffed.. and there are a few elite mobs in act 1 inferno that take a shit on me...


Any suggestions?

need moar damage and LOH

thats kinda obvious... haha.

U should look for weapon with +dex n critical for secondary.

At least 25% critical chance, no point having high critical damg which don't kick in often

Bring up res to 850

Dex more than 2k

Armor unbuff 7 k at least

Attack spd 2.0 at least

vita try to get 40k above

Dps depends on your budget, 40k unbuff is good enough.

That's almost gfg already.

Most impt is when u playing, know your monk limits.
When u have to kite u kite, there are some mods that gives all monks problems.
