Build Guide
Hey boyz!
In my opinion/experience this build is currently one of the strongest possible monk setups for pushing solo GR leaderboards, Video guide will be coming soon!
Please note: I always keep my diablo fans guides up to date and will be making adjustments to the guide whenever there is a shift in meta! so be sure to check back, and vote on the guide!
Basic game-play strategy:
- Use Blinding Flash to proc Cesar's Memento & blind monsters
- Apply EP on the target with the least HP
- Desert Shroud on cooldown (when in combat)
- Drop tempest rush stacks when you want to pop your EP (and set off a chain reaction)
- Hold down tempest
Skill variations:
- Serenity - Ascension (swap out manta of salvation, for a more expert build)
- Dashing Strike - Blinding Speed (swap out manta of salvation, for extra mobility - not recommended for higher GR)
Legendary Gem variations:
- Goguk of swiftness - Swap out Taeguk for a less annoying but weaker build (only recommended for lulz)
Kanai's cube variations:
- N/A
Hellfire Passive/Alternative setups:
- Momentum (for small damage increase)
- Seize the initiative (for TR dmg increase)
FAQ:
Q: How does Attack Speed interact with TR in 2.4?
A: It no longer increases the "tick" speed, but now just multiplies the damage output, and spirit cost retrospectively! (AND YES - this works with the flurry explosion *cough* OP OP)
Q: Why do i use unity in solo?
A: If you have another unity on your follower and combo it with a "Follower cannot die" relic, you gain a net result of 50% damage reduction.

Would you use coe or zodiac instead of unity for groups?
Also, can you give us a stat priority per items please?
Thanks bro, ive been working and crafting like crazy to get all ancients. I think i used like 30000 mats XD
I'm finding it beneficial to use force move to get around instead of holding down mouse 1. The problem I'm having is running out of spirit, so my question is what CDR% is a good marker for effective Blinding Flash refresh rates? CDR slots are always hard to come by.
really love the build!
People still ask why you use Unity in solo? Wow.
With how the set bonus works, you're ideal method is to get as many Ancient items as possible. Ancient's permitting, is there a reason you would not cube Balance and then use a Fist of Az'Turasq + Another item such as a sludgefist (+Stun) which would equate to an additional 100% dmg and 4% Reduction? (Hence, increasing EP, lowering TR)
Would the +Tempest Rush dmg outweigh this? Or would this be a viable variation?
2H weapon would have a higher damage for the Fist of Az EP bonus multiplier (which would be guaranteed 300% cubed) resulting in higher EP damage.
Hey quin can you plz make avideo guide?:)
Using blind faith insted of leorics crown is that a viable option? Im thinking of 40% chance to blind
