500 all res should be alright. yeah.

and i think im like the only one that is interested in pvp. haha


If it wasn't for pvp I would have quit by now. After para100 there is no reason to play anymore. Now if I ever farm again it will be because there are pvp items I want to buy lol.

I like pvp .... tried out different setups (shield, 150K ehp, spirit regen gear, life regen, LoH gear etc...)
Personally, I like speed, 2x spirit regen fists & SR helm, dmg and MoH 700 life regen mantra.

ive been trying out a circular breathing / exalted soul / fleet footed / wall of light with skorn for awhile. it hits fking hard. very fun against fat barbs.

personally love pvping against fat barbs.

wiz is pretty boring
wd is alright. fun but annoying
dhs are fun to play against
monk vs monk.. i consider all monks to be on my side, so i don't like pvping against monks. LOL

wish bliz will make some sort of team match type of pvp. 2v2 or something.

Agree .... I also rather not play against other Monks.
I was playing against a barb a few days ago and he was complainting that rend wasn't working on me.
He raged quit ... weird.
Don't think rend can be dodged.

They aren't nerfing OwE...I can't understand why people are still saying this. They said they don't want it to be mandatory, and they don't want to make monks gear useless. If anything, they are going to integrate it with another passive. Nowhere, ever, have they said they are going to nerf it or remove it from the game.

We just said it feels like they are going to nerf it on the patch after 107 patch since we are getting so much buff on the spirit spenders. Never said it's for sure or Bliz said they will do it for sure.

Tried the new PVP patch last night, i hate that ranged got 30% damage reduction. That might be especially because I ended up in a game with the number 2 witch doctor in Americas or something...

I guess DHs are actually a decent challenge now and pvping them is a better representation of the difference in gear; can't 1-shot with LTK anymore.

This might actually shift pvp-gearing to DPS over def...

It can't alternate that cleanly, since the 3rd strike actually even has a lower aps coefficient than the first 2, so it would be more like 9, 9, 8 if it should be 9 frames per attack... so how is that factored into BP numbers?


I did some testing yesterday, and i found that it really does seem to be based on 30 frames, like no matter when i do an attack, the moment the attack hits is allways at a frame interval.

but thats about all i found so far, other then flaws in my testing that is.

the plan is to take a frame, such as the frame when the first attack hits and go frame by frame while shift attacking untill i hit the same frame point in the second combo set, but what i found was that when taking a frame from the first attack of the combo, youve got this giant aoe attack still lingering by the time your at that frame your looking out for, so you cant tell if your exactly at the correct frame. of course though when writing this i realized i could just go by a frame in the second attack.

but even with this, theres likely going to be variation like if im at a 3.52 thats 8/9/8/9/8/9/8/9/8/9/8/9/8/9 so one combo set might be 2 frames longer then the one before it. but then i also have the alternating weapons, if im doing main/off/main/off/main/off/main/off, the set thats main/off/main is going to be a diffrent speed then the next set that is off/main/off.

though if i get the combo frame length calculated, and find that its always the same, that would pretty much confirm that there are breakpoints and all that would be left to do is see if the frame rate is the same for my 3.52 attack, as it is with 1-3 asi less then my 3.75 attack.

but if its not the same, thats a whole nother can of worms.

Thanks for testing Hunter,
Gotta try EL now.

Side note: so much buff in 1.07 gets me worried.
Blizz is probably looking to nerf OWE now in 1.08
I really need to change to all res gear soon.
With 25 - 50% nerf with single res will faak most Monks up.
It'll be nice to free up a passive anyway.


they are nerfing it in 1.07, by making spirit gen passives that much more important though the buff to spirit skills, along with pvp nerfing it, by making that one passive slot that much more valuable. well i guess they arnt actually nerfing it, but by buffing other skills and as the game has evolved with diffrent monk builds, they have essentially accomplished what they wanted and made it seem like less of a requirement.
