This is what I always use.

I love having two different primaries. DR is really useful to kite against molten+plague fuckers. And extra dmg buff from the rune is very nice.

Fists Of Thunder - Thunderclap
Deadly Reach - Foresight
Sweeping Wind - Cyclone
Serenity - Peaceful Repose or Ascension
Breath Of Heaven - Blazing Wrath

Personal Choice Between
Party Game : Mantra of Evasion - Hard Target
Solo : Mantra of Conviction - Overawe

Passives:
The Guardian's Path
Seize The Initiative
One with Everything

Hi, can you tell me what i need to upgrade to farm A3 with my monk ? http://eu.battle.net/d3/pl/profile/HaXiiT-2499/hero/3941036

I can kill some elites but i often die to group of mobs. I think i can pass A3, but i want to farm it easily. So what to upgrade first ?

that's what I've been running for the last days. Tried Guardian's Path but it just doesn't seem to work well for me, taking too much dmg with 5.3k def/760AR.
Tried the exploding palm yesterday, switched back to DR/Foresight to be able to kie shit and keep the cyclone up while kiting.

you should work on your dex, most of your items has quite low dex on it.
Improve your gems, crafting star emeralds is not all that expensive if you've been upgrading jewel crafting during your progression to inferno.
Dex will increase your DPS as well as def which is also quite low.

you are low on dodge and armor. try mantra of evasion hard target and guardian path passive. increasing dex as said before, will increase those two and dmg ofc.

thats enough dps.

you just prolly need more life healin or all other defensive stats from gear to keep you from dyin too fast. That or its a learn to play type of ordeal...

anyway to the dude that just bought 5mil 1.03 fire walkers. They dropped crazy price cause everyone wants the new buffed 1.04 kick ass version :).

my advise skill wise to those that dont have nearly crazy high enough dps or they have low dps with low defensive stats, switch blinding flash for Deadly reach so you can kite molten n arcane. Cause your not strong enough to blow them up fast enough with serenity + blinding flash stun, n you wont be able to take a few hits since low defensive stats, so have DR for mini range. Did wonders for me when i was with lower res n stuff.
works great in depths core when you trap monsters in door ways and they are like arcane n stuff, you can just spam DR. Whats even more funny is when theres a mob at an iron gate, you can attack thru the gate n not take damage as long as you dont open the gate

Has anybody tried the new claws called:

Won Khim Lau?


They have some pretty high lightning damage on them. Wondering if wearing a couple of those might be a bigger boost to damage then stacking crit or higher raw DPS. That extra lightning damage probably wouldn't show up on character screen, but it has to be huge...

Can someone help me with some gear tips? Trying to get up to 30k dps, 30k life, etc. Not sure what stats I should prioritize/which gear upgrades I should get. I only have 1m gold right now, so please keep that in mind. http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Blashyrkh-1438/hero/12553912

I'm pretty curious about this too. I wish there's a website or calculator that factor in this +X% dmg modifier. It's pretty vague.



You should farm up and save more gold to upgrade. Can't do anything with that budget.

did they up the min/max dmg that can roll on jewelry? i've been finding a lot of super high dps rings/ammies like this one (wish it was poison res oh well)
