Man, as a fellow monk player, I feel your pain regarding the current state of the monk. They're so bad. Hell, I have basically pretty damned close to perfect stormbreaker gear, and Tier 5 isn't at all close to being easy (not to mention that the ping pong playstyle is just awful). It looks like 2.1 is going to fix a lot of monk problems. Hell, presuming that the current rumored buffs are true, my 2h holy sunwuko/inna monk will end up doing 50-75% (if not more) more damage than it currently does, in addition to being tougher. Should be fun to see.

And this last PTR patch hasn't really swayed my desire to return full time to Monk at all :-(
Many years from now when Monks return in Diablo 8 we will understand the changes!
