its not so much the single skill, but the use of them all in cunjuction.

for example- i get feared, use serenity, ive got 4 seconds of cc immunit, i tp in, wd jaunts away, i tp in again, and im turned into a chicken, tp in im slowed, then feared, and its just a continus circle whiel u are attacked from off screen lol, all of this while i am out of spirit, using what little i can gain to try and get close, to be feared or cc;d away.

add all this ontop of massive rep life from skills and gear+ kiting around that stupid building=gg lol
-edit
or island, thats a pretty crappy place to get caught as well.

your monk is under geared. you're playing the most gear-intensive class in the game of course you're going to die to those things.

me and controller dueled for quite a bit and he wins more than 60% of his duels because his monk is built and geared nicely. (with the exception of hex since the cc% reduct isnt yet in place)

get dmg/ias on your rings, movement speed on your boots, some rep of your own, heart of iron armor and gundgo bracers and i can guarantee you you'll do better vs everything you mentioned.

you may also try high spirit regen claws/helm/passive if youre having spirit problems.

anyone wanna level up a character
walkthrough or power level im bored

I will agree it isn't easy, however if you add some resistance you will be surprised how much damage you can negate vs all classes.

Dundgo and HoI like wulf said. It's a huge help.
Don't put super high stats before crucial defensive ones like res some rep and armor.

who bid at the last minute on that heart of iron on the AH earlier today??

If i wanted to buy a spectrum, say 90 dps with normall lvl 30 stat affixes, would anyone have an issue with that?
and use it of course, since 90 dps is the max a lld weapon can have.

What do you think of these? Quite sick if you ask me and must be hella rare. Currently on Europe AH for 10m, probably someone already flipping those low level items...

some people will throw a fit because It's a heck of a lot easier to get 90 dps on spectrum than a <30 weapon. I've only seen two 1h 90 dps weapons usable by my monk and I own one controller owns the other

what about a low dps spectrum with a socket simply because it looks cool?
spectrum actually has 39.2 base dps which worse than most weapons
