your monk's armor will be reduced to 5700 armor and if you decide to go dual wield, 4500 armor.
in the future, when blizzard nerfs owe by removing the single res bonus, we will be looking at 470 all res. how the fuck are we gonna survive?
furthermore, all res equipment on inna's sets already costs too much and more than an ik set with a pre determined all res stat. many wont be able to afford them.
if monks continue, we'll be going back to getting shitty rares with all res stats and armor. wtf.

monks already have shitty offensive passives/active skills and now we our defensive gonna be just as sucky? come on.


guess we will have to change gears then..

my armor is relatively low as shield monk because I donot have any pieces that + armor. one reason is i am not that rich, second is items can not roll everything..
so i have 16% melee dmg reduction and some elite dmg reduction. but due to my dps, even i can hit 100k when i got a better weapon, i will still solo maybe mp7 at highest..

Guess I'm going to have 4500 armor without enchant in 1.0.5.

We'll see how it works out.

evasion, healing and conviction...can not be safer

Yeah I run with a barb and a monk. :)

Much tankier. I run overawe. Another monk run MoE Hard Target. Barb does WC.

To everyone that said "reroll to barb", why would we?

it's even going to be more challenging.

but I think it's still going to be manageable.

What do you guys think about the passive "combination strike"?

Not too sure how that passive works, but it seems like it would be an awesome skill for uber bosses, no?

I think FoT and DR with Foresight would give us 8%+8%+18%+15% should give us Massive dmg boost.

This can be complimented by other X% to elites items such as SOJ.

I have like 105k unbuffed dmg, running these combos with give me like 56% more dmg from the skills + 30% SOJ.

Sorry, if this isn't news. haha

essentially its taking the current owe/seize/what ever you want and making it overawe/seize/resolve or run mp1.

its a serious step backwards, forcing monks to go from slightly offensive in their passive skill choices to not offensive at all.

making farming either slower due to sacrificing fleetfooted/combo master for resolve or less rewarding from a lower mp lvl.
