Can anyone please help me on my monk please?

I still have problem dealing with mp10 although I considered myself decently geared.

Anyone can tell me what's wrong with my character

I have around 100mil to spend atm if I need to change any gear in order to do mp10

Thanks in advance for the advise

Usually I will swapped to life gem whenever I was farming mp 10, currently farming mp6- 7 so no life gem is needed.

I have also a 5.8ls skorn to swap over whenever I meet with tough elites but seems like i cannot solo mp10 uber...

And also how many lifepool is considered decent

Good luck xD

I sat there and spammed bells on this guy for like 2 straight minutes and barely made a dent, haha. He has like 12k armor from all the vit, and life regen based on max health. Totally ridic!

Here's the problem for monks, as I see it (especially compared to barbs): our passives and skills DON'T SCALE. Everything is flat. Barbs, it's all percentage based and scaling (mostly). So, barbs have a passive that gives 2% total life as HPS. That means a vit gem is doing triple duty = health, armor, and HPS. 2000 life (about 1 gem) = 100 hps. They have so many percentage modifiers, so it scales very well with high gear levels. Monks have some really interesting mechanics, but it's all flat numbers, so in high gear settings it gets way outclassed by other stuff, or it's just too little to bother with.

You're a glass cannon dude, of course you aren't gonna be able to solo MP10.

You need 200 or 300 more vit imo. Get a BT chest unless you want to drop all your gold on this slot alone. Drop the dex down off your chest by like 100+ and add maybe 30-50 more vit and you'll pick up 70+ all res on this slot too. I would also recommend 70+ vit on nats boots over 50 poison res, but that's not a big deal that needs to be fixed right away.

And for gods sake, sell those lacunis for mass igg since you don't need the movespeed and get some gg rare bracers or strongarm or something. Otherwise, you migth as well get depth diggers/rare pants or something.

You clearly don't care too much about dying if you're not even using serenity...and you're dying. You got plenty of things you could be doing differently.

Good luck!

I'm looking forward to upgrading my monk. My budget is not set yet, I just want to have some kind of guideline for what stuff I should be working on first (in terms of like max 50m upgrades, more like 20-30m each slot).

http://eu.battle.net/d3/de/profile/Neko-2322/hero/262497

It's not completely up to date right now I guess, I usually run with a 29% exp gem in my helmet (currently too greedy for a Star Amethyst, but I'll get something like that soon). For Gloves I also have a pair with more critdmg (50%) but no allres, and for bracers I have a pair without allres but a sweet dmgboost as well (about 5k extra damage). I'm still crafting more stuff here. I usually wear my hellfire ring as well (70+ allres, 40+% critdmg)

I also run a TR Build for farming with a 450+dex/100+ vita, 1,35k dps Skorn. With that build I use a +10k Health Globe Amu (~50% cd, 8,5% cc, ~100 dex, more dmg than the LoH-Amulet I use on the current setup).

I think I should greatly improve my survivability first. Running with about 30k Hp on higher MPs is quite dangerous, I agree. I'm aiming for like 150k dps unbuffed and better survivability overall. It would also be nice to know what item I should keep crafting for now, in my opinion it's the amulet.

I have to add that I'd love to keep my full Inna's Set, unless somebody can convince me not do so :D Just love the 4th Set Bonus so much!

I hope somebody can give me some sweet advices :) Thanks!
