You can get rings with attack speed + life on hit pretty cheap and probably an ammy with life on hit too.
Just use a high dps weapon with good attack speed (like monk fist) and a socket and put the highest amethyst you can make into it.


Is there a CAP on ias ?

no, i use breath of heaven aswell, with 15% rune.
inner sanctuary can be used to block doors and stairs also, and with deadly reach you can stand behind it and stil hit them.
i stand in it to prevent getting molten, poison pools and crap like that on me.
on sanct i use the rune to gain heal, but was thinking of changing to longer duration.
+ it fears away mobs when you use it, great if you get blocked by a crowd of minions.


I'll have to try that when I get home. Earth Ally isn't really getting me any mileage anyhow (dies too fast still), except for the added HP which is barely noticeable.

i've gone back and forth between the two also, but generally find that the one extra second of immunity is more valuable than the heal.
i use serenity (what i assume you meant) as a get the fuck out button, to reposition myself, or for 4 free seconds of dps.
a lot of the times against tough elite packs all i need is 4 seconds to kill one of them, then i can kite until more CDs are back up.

man, I wish I had enough dps to say that I can kill an elite in 4 seconds. :( with just 10k dps, it sometimes takes me 4 seconds just to kill a big white monster.

Have you beaten all of Inferno? I've heard that Act 3 and 4 are DPS intensive... Even if you can tank, how do you kill anything with 10k dps? Doesn't it take like 20 mins of kiting to kill champions/elites?

No, I'm still on A2... using ~700dps weapons right now because I can't afford any higher DPS weapons. ~1k weapons cost millions of gold that I don't have.

how much dps do you have?

And can anyone speak about the passive ability Transcendence? I haven't really tried it, I think One with Everything, Seize the Initiative, and The Guardian's Path are all too valuable.

im in hell a4 atm, using pretty much the same as OPs build, but atm i often switch my primary skill to FOT-thunderclap for teleport and stun

Second, i have replaced the ally with Exploding palm-Essence burn as I like to see the trash mobs explode :)
still wondering if this skill is worthless for inf, as nobody here seems to be using it (i found it also worked well together with sw) ??

Another point where i am not sure what to do: i tried the new healing mantra+resolve vs evasion/hard target+transcendence (other passives: seize the initiative+one with everything).
I found that transcendence provides health only when i spend spirit, while the new mantra provides life with each attack (which is maybe more?)

My third question is, are two-handed weapons totally useless?

thx @op and all who delivered for this very useful thread! really learned some things here... :)
