Not standing in stuff?

Youre stats look fine for a2.

Maybe some more res or life on hit.

LoL, i have identical stats but 120 less REsists... and people keep saying all i need is more resists.
if he is having trouble still, i have no hope...

i was tanking 3 player inferno diablo with 600 resist all, 60k life, 10k armor and 1400 life on hit.
my resists were horrible but you can make up for the lack of one stat with good other ones.

What are the most efficient farming areas for a monk with:

750 all resis
14k dmg buffed
52k hp buffed
7500 armor buffed
2.04 Atks/s
13% crit
16% block and 27% dodge

I feel like I can do act 2, but I don't believe I can farm it easily by killing elites. I think I need more damage. Right now I'm just doing butcher runs, I also am wondering if act 1 goblins got nerfed.

Those of you who are running around with super low armor (under 5k) - are you not using Enchantress as your follower like you should, or are you just buying really cheap items on the AH for the stats and ignoring armor?

Most people overgear on defensive stats on monks and neglect their offensive power.
You dont need 1k resists. 750 is enough for even the hardest packs in a4.
You dont need 9k armor. 5-6k is perfectly fine.
Hell, You don't even need a shield.

Here is an example of what you can do with an offensively balanced gear set up:

while i agree with you, the people using a shield and super defensive builds are doing so because it gives them more room for error.
it's pretty obvious that you can beat the game with shit gear, but the more defensive gear you have the bigger margin for mistakes you are allowed.
