I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you have really bad dexterity. It's really impressive how much damage comes from stats as opposed to the weapon itself.


Are you guys joking? It's ridiculous how much damage comes from damage alone. Shove a Ruby into your weapon and stare in awe how much your dps increases. Your main stat is good and all, but it is completely blown out of the water by raw damage. That said, your gear should have a lot of main stat on it because damage mods don't seem to exist on armor. They are on rings and amulets though which you should strive for.

A ~60dps weapon should be fairly easy to find. Bonus if it is socketed and you can shove a Ruby into it (preferably of Flawless+ quality). If it also has main stat or vitality on it that is even better.


Uhm, if you shove a ruby in, without any of your main stat, it goes up by speed x +dmg from the ruby. With your mainstat, you also get to multiply in your dex. So another 400-500% of that increase. So yes, dex is huge. +dmg is good, but +dex makes it massively better.


Except it isn't possible to have zero main stat and they aren't mutually exclusive either.

For barbarian... 1-handed weapon + shield, two 1-handed weapons, or one 2-handed weapon?

So guys, I'm just starting (lvl8) and my character is a monk. I'm open to restarting if necessary - which character is the most fun in your opinion?
Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but no one knows why. In our lab, theory and practice are combined: nothing works and no one knows why.

I have a 20 something barb and a 20 something Demon Hunter... so far my fav is DH, vaulting around rapid fire and multi shot are too much fun... Not to mentioned if you stack up +dex your dps gets insane real fast.

I'm wondering about this as well but for Demon Hunter

I don't know how the 2 handed system works, but it seems i don't gain any damage if i use 2 weapons or if i just use 1

Right now my main weapon has roughly 20-35 damage or something like that(not sure because it's down). A ruby would increase that from 24-43, or roughly 20% increase in damage. On the other hand, I have about 400 dexterity. Adding another 20 dex adds only 4% damage increase. Damage is worth more because you have so much less of it.

It depends on whats you like, all is viable. I myself run a Barb DW(dual-wield). Each style needs a difference sets of skills.
Key skills for DW are Vengence, Leap, Stun, WW. Since I am DW I have no block very little dodge and low armor so I need to regen or life steal fast.

My monk dies pretty easily so I have to put a 101 armor shield on him, but the dps seems pretty bad, any recommendation guys?


what level? my monk is 42 with 1h + shield and i don't die except to really tough monster packs on ocasion. My DPS isn't great, but living forever vs most mobs means you will kill them eventually.

I'm aware of this. Oversimplification, however, makes it more obvious why it's relevant. Besides, I'm not the one who was acting like they're mutually exclusive. Look at daunt for that. While +dmg is obviously amazing when you can get it, it's ONLY as amazing as he was talking about due to the primary stat multiplier. And the stat most likely to be the "oops" issue seems to be primary DPS stat, rather than something as glaringly in your face as weapon DPS.

Do you have no hp? I fought belial earlier on my monk in NM, I have 51% DR + 17% from phys resist and he only hits me for around 1.2k a hit. You should be surviving more than 1 hit as he should be hitting you for around 2-2.2k hp tops. If you only have 2k hp then you might want to re-evaluate vitality =).
