Fist is probably worth 1 mil, but will be hard to sell a lot of people won't apprecitate the life on hit that much. I'm using both way of the hundred fists with windforce flurry and fists of thunder. WotHF is great for DPS and has a bit of range I'm not convinced having both is the rest. WotHF feels weak for kiting but great for DPSing and has better AoE and the only other good option is lashing tail kick. (Don't like seven sided strike, 700% weapon damage every 30 seconds pretty crap overall and I don't need the invulnerability from it.) Using sweeping wind with inner storm atm, I think it's more a luxury though. | ||

Ugh, I wouldn't even mind doing this if it weren't for the fact that wizards and demon hunters can farm act 4 in blues. | ||

Then it's what people said about A2 inferno, and there's a video just below your post of someone tanking the shit out of A2 boss packs without even having to kite. People are progressing slowly through the acts without any nerfs to the monsters, and with several "nerfs" to the player characters. Next week people will be bitching about A3, and the week after about A4. Then in a month's time, everyone will complain that all of inferno is too easy. | ||

As I said, there'd be a lot less complaints if it was the same for everyone. Right now monks/barbs are stuck farming 10 hours a day feeding gold to our wizard overlords. You shouldn't need act 3-4 gear to progress through act 2. | ||

Sure dude, that video showed that a monk decked out in gear worth millions of gold can "progress" through inferno. Now where's that video of the dh/wiz breezing through act 4 in blues. The game design is neither easy nor hard, it's broken. | ||

This amounts to 23 and a half k dps or something without any buffs. im currently saving for a 10-15 mil one hander (my wep is currently 1.4 attk speed, i want 1.6-1.8). i got 7 mil almost there ;D ill trophy post when i get it to c the jump in dps. What are you farming to get that kinda cash? | ||

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk#UYXgjQ!YbU!Ycbacc Screenshot + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/VodR3.jpg) DPS shown is with Blinding Flash activated, actual DPS is around 8k-9k. Resistance shown is with Time of Need activated (+20%). Yes, this is inferno. Im switching between Windforce Flurry (for kiting) and Spirited Salvo run, currently in Act II going for the Kulle's blood quest. With my current equips and resources, elites and champion packs takes way more time to kill and damage is very low but I can survive. Need better weapon though lol. | ||

Water ally helps kiting. | ||

He's most likely right, in a few months people won't think inferno is very hard. | ||

I am trying to rebuild myself so I can get off one with everything. But it'll cost millions to do so, and i want one of them 12 million one handers, so i'm currently saving for that. But then what good is high dps if I can't survive? So i have 643 res all around with one with everything. if i take it off, i have 240 to all and 643 to lightning... I think thats WAY too low. My current stats are below, and it seems you are able to survive with 480(or something) which is kind of encouraging. ![[image loading]](http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/9507/stuffqj.png) | ||

Well id have too stress how important resolve + sweeping wind. Resolve applies on all targets that get dmg from sweeping wind. Without resolve act 3 gets ALOT harder really. Right now 500 resist to all seems sufficient only your resistance from physical should be higher like 600-700 also take in count i use 2 itemss whcih give me in total 17% less dmg from melee. if you are gearing up just try to camp teh AH for cheap items which are worth alot, in the end when you buy a new item for a slot that was originally cheap you actually get more money then invested, thus your new item suddenly was nearly free. This is how it has been working out for me. Also when buying shields keep the following thing in mind There are 3 shield type 1900-2900 absorb or something 2900-3700 and 3700-4700, the last one is which you want also you want a shiled with 20% block chance otherwise its useless i wouldnt advice going for such an expensive weapon so early on. first priority is to stay alife after that you can start do dmg. also one thing to keep in mind, if you have the luxury always try tog et extra armor stat on your gear 10 armor = 1 resist 10 armor * 0,2 = 2 (hard target) 10 armor * 0,5= 5 (deadly reach) 10 armor * 0,15 = 1,5 (enchantress) 10 armor = 18,5 with this build in solo play. | ||

Do you ever run into trouble getting trapped, and how do you do vs ranged mobs? I tried a build like yours in Inferno A1 except Crippling + concussion instead of deadly reach, but I really really miss Dashing strike for both the mobility (vs getting trapped) and snare (vs ranged kiters). | ||
