so i sold my monk a couple weeks ago and was selling the gold on the rmah. eventually gold stopped selling and i was stuck with the last bit of it. This popped up on the ah last night and i bought it for the hell of it.

what do you pro monks think of it? is there a monk build that doesnt benefit from fast aps as much as cyclone monk that this might be perfect for?



That is the BiS weapon in my opinion to pair with a good WKL. Such a good snipe to get for under 1 bil, lucky you.

Hello again :)
I crafted and/or bought some items for my monk, and she looks like this at the moment: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/SoundLover-2749/hero/15213723
http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/3746/screenshot009bk.jpg - that's my mainhand, it's still not updated on battle.net
What do you think I have to improve first? Try to craft better shoulders (for all res + arcane res), better armor (for 3 sockets, more vit and arc res), or search for a nat ring with cd (right now, I can't afford a cc one, llosing the life % or arc res, no idea which one is more important to me)?

Nice Monk ... lots of attack speed.

Armour .... 4700 ..... 5000+ (use STI instead of NDE)
Life ........ 39K ....... For MP10, I like over 50K
all res ..... 500 ....... 600+ to be more comfortable

You need to squeeze in some vita in gloves, bracers, WH,
Or innas pants with 95 dex, 185 vita ( you will lose 4K dmg, but gain 4K life)
Instead of SOJ .... get rare ring with vita, res ( I mainly use my SOJ for ubers)

thanks MONKster for the tips..its a pain to try to get vit on those parts..sigh

already using STI together with NDE..i ditch combination strike due to having only 1 spirit generator as i need serenity for SK's walk..havnt been able to out-tank it without serenity unless i change to MoE-hard target but that would mean killing a lot more slower

Weird ... you have dual LS weapons ... you should be able to facetank ubers.
Your attack speed and 190+ dmg with cyclones should be enough to regen health quick.
Can you facetank Ghom and Rak ? If you can, your life regen should be fine.
Maybe its the issue with 40K health, you need to take a few big hits during fights. (Fighter SK with Magna's bees and arcane coming at you)

You might have to up your defense a little bit more.

I duel weild MP10 ubers with 5300 armour, 750 all res, 3LS and 231K dmg.
Jin can use LS Skorn, with less armour and res. I have yet to try this.

Maybe just try to re-position out of harms way more often.

Yep. Just need bigger health pool to have some cushion.

Let me start by bragging a bit my main monk gear broke through top 90 monks in amerarica over the weekend. I item/exp farm lvl 10 with this monk.

Im still amaised that exp farming mp2-3 is more profitable for time spent with the right gears. This build clears a map extremely fast and efficient with 4 piece inna and a couple pickup pieces.

If your not a fan of tempest rush you may want to consider trying this...Im able to keep sweeping wind going nearly all the time with little or no spirit cost by speed and the fact that its discounted with the inna set bonus.

I use the innas bonus, exalted soul, and the azturasq fist to keep my spirit pool filled ...can drop bells and regen as fast as I need

I ditched seize the initive for fleet footed because the armor help was negligable in mp 3..so with innas pants and nats boots your running full speed

I have had alot of success speed farming with this build. I run keeps 2, rakkis, then aerrat 2 to azmo in about 24 mins. If your like dang thats slow keep in mind Im a pack rat and that includes all blues yellows books gems and what not picked up to salvage or hoard for later use...so with an average of 8 trips to salveage on a bad run and 10-11 on a good run you can see why I think this is fast.

Also someone commented that a puzzle ring on your follower is stupid because theres a 15 min timer...I call bull I belive the timer is 15 mins if you stay on one map..if you switch maps and go from keeps 2 to rakkis it starts the timer over. I get a gob from the puzzle ring on my follower on every map..and it doubles the amount of DE's I get a run..as gobs drop a de about 2 out of three spawns and you get about 2 gobs a map this way...the one from the puzzle ring and the normal one that spawns.

If you have questions or comments feel free to pm me. Jay 8

So, how much exp per hour do you get from doing that run?

And if you really like running mp3, you can drop all the purple gems in your armor and one with everything.
