1.0.5 armor > all but until then balance


Armor matters most in next patch?


Until then I still have the extra 1200~ armor from STI before it's nerfed so I don't need to use enchantress :P or I could, for a total of about ~7100, but it seems unnecessary.

What would you guys prefer post-patch for your Monk (using my numbers)?

Damage Reduced increased from 58.33% to 63.88% (+5.55% increased)

or

Dodge Chance increased from 40% to 46% (+6% increased)


Basically the same, but I just don't know if it's better to dodge entire damage 6%~ of the time or reduce entire damage by 6%.

:P

Do you guys think ~5100-5200 armor is too low? With 40k life and 700 all res. That's with the 50% STI buff.

Will go up once I upgrade Dex gems + gear + level but probably by not that much.

I can sacrifice 200~ armor for 25 crit damage + 6-9 attack speed but I don't know if it's okay to go down to 5000 armor flat.


Advice? :P


How much paper DPS is that adding? 200 armor is roughly equal to 20 res all, it's not *that* much if you can get a good dps boost in it's place.

5200 armor is pretty average for 1.0.5, you should be ok. It's going to be a lot harder for us to keep to the 1:10 ratio because of enchantress and STI nerf, so armor will inherently be worth more anyways since most of us will have higher @res than armor now.

LS starts getting pretty great around 65-70k dps imo.

we use EF because of the flat decimal increase it gives to attack speed since monks do well with high aps.

Okay, so I'm really new to this game. Made a monk right away. So far I was able to solo Act I in Inferno perfectly fine, I haven't tried Act II yet. Now I don't have much gold at the moment, since I'm new and just got to inferno, but I was wondering what I should start upgrading. I understand I need more dex overall, but how much will I need to be able to get to 1800 dex overall without dropping everything else? Also how much will I need to upgrade to be able to farm Act III without dying constantly? Thanks in advance!
