Very new to monk

Very new to monk, what exactly would the difference be from mainhand to offhand?


i think its like in ww barb, sweeping wind takes weapon dmg of mainhand. not sure though

I like your damage, but I'm afraid to swap out my life on hit offhand for crit + socket. How do you survive with 0 LOH , 0 LS , & 0 Life Regen.. ?


used lifesteal @ 70k dps but now i just rely on serenity / blinding flash vs packs
health globes vs massive packs of trash :)

Got a new monk, basically naked.

I have 20million to spend to gear him... with that budget, are there any "Must have" pieces? Or just try and get good deals on all items.

I just want to make sure I don't skip over something (idk like maybe sky splitter is a must have! who knows)

It's looking like Inna's is out of my 20mil price range... I can afford one piece lol

sweeping wind takes dmg from whichever hand is active when u cast

so unless u want to always manage active hand when casting mainhand/offhand weapon does not matter

u should change rings / bracer / helms to have crit chance

and then change your mainhand to something liek dex/crit/socket

this will give you massive dmg boost

have fun

bracers got crit? well imo critchance is enough got arround 22% but mby uppgrade my helm but it's expensiv because dexvit fire res @res crit + sox is pretty rare
and i thought both weps matter at monks -> so why i should only change the mainhand?

Need some help with my monk, just started playing him again and feel like my survivability is terrible.

What can I improve? I realise a lot of my gear is terrible and some is ok. 50m budget.

I want to be able to solo act 3 easily and play in group play easy :)
