I tested both sojs on my monk, FoT with 10% and WoL with 4%cc. WoL hits WAY more and you can kill em faster with that. I recomend WoL soj all day long! For higher mp i sugest aswell the skorn build, 1.5M crit hits.


i'm looking at your dprogress right now. mine should be just about updated with the exception of skills. i will pick up a WoL SoJ and run some ghom tests :)

need to see some vids of gameplay though. i found myself FoT'ing, then alternating between MoC and WoL most fights. not sure what you guys do. i also ran chant of resonance for the 2 spirit/sec bonus as +100 more max spirit meant nothing to me when my spirit bar was nearly always empty

My playstile is this:

Mantra of conv
Sweeping wind with nados
blind flash for extra 30%
Serenity
I do 2x FoT combo and a bell
On elites i wait till my spirit pool is full and spam 1x conviction, blind flash and 4x bells. This take 15k life off the elites in seconds...

Press the bell skill to drop them til you run out of spirit

FoT Quickening to generate the spirit back up to almost full

Overawe and drop bells in a row again

Repeat.

EDIT: I'm a skorn monk. And I tested my method doing solo mp10 uber to see which method was faster.

This method was faster than alternating FoT/Bell for me.

wow. that made all the difference in killing ghom. should've recorded time but i see where it's beneficial to spam FoT til spirit bar is full, throw down MoC then Bell away. awesome. thanks!

Hi all,

In the process of building out a monk I intend on farming high MPs solo. Gearing shouldn't be an issue as ill have a decent amount of money to spend on decent gear.

That being said, what skills are you equipping for those high level monks already raping the higher MPs? Passive skills? Chants? Any must have weapons gear that I shouldn't be crafting?

Gear recommendations are welcome as well but I'd really like to get the perfect mix of skills to build around.

Thanks for your help.. First monk ever!

Depends if you want a traditional overawe, cyclones, dual wield setup.
Or high MP TR/Bell Skorn setup.

Most gears don't change with the 2 above setup.

You think for high mp, it's best to go skorn/bell?
