Am i the only 1 that hates the kk and kkk abbreviations? You do not run around irl saying "a thousand thousand" or "thousand thousand thousand" you call them million or billion respectively.

Nope I 1000000000% agree with you. It took me a while to work out WTF it meant...
What is wrong with k, m and b, or even Mil and Bil if you think M and B might be too confusing.
Back on topic though:
I've not been playing monk for a while, is WoTHF:FOF still the highest single target damage for our generators?
If so I was thinking something like this would be my S4 generator based build:
why do you want hybrid build?) they are always bad in practice, generators build does not need sss at all, think about it)
Not sure you can really call it a hybrid build, as it sacrifices nothing that is 100% NEEDED for the Generator build (Shenlong, 2pc Raiment, Depth Diggers, SS and possibly BRC) but adds in SSS for some fairly high AoE damage, which you would lack if you're using Fists of Fury as your generator.
Really? Because I watched Quinn's video (and this was without Lion's Claw, which basically doubles SSS damage) and it was melting everything on T10, like anything below a Grift guardian was oneshot.
all dmg in his uliana builds was from EP, and it is his words "sss deals zero dmg"
he tried sss+shenlongs in first days of ptr, and now they are nerfed, no sense to use them in sss build at all
I was talking about the very first vid he released of UIianas + Shenlongs. Didn't realise it had been nerfed since then, can you link some info on the state of the nerfs, I may need to rethink my build

I think Zt1mQ is referring to this post by Xantrix777 on the Dfans forum, and this post on the official forums. The thing is, Xantrix is merely suggesting what he thinks Shenlong's bonus will become in the next patch.
There hasn't been any official word on Shenlong's set since the first PTR patch.
loved this build in 1st PTR. Shenlongs, F&R, - i used bane,simplicity, and miranie for gems ( thing goes off like mad since you are attacking so fast ) and depth diggers, band of rue chambers and FD for skills.
I didn't said that shenlong's were changed already, just gave an idea, as Zt1mq stated, all the damage is come from cold EP not SSS, and the lion fist it's only for seasons (which I don't play) a set shouldn't need a single item to be able to work but in diabloland it's always the opposite :3
Raka80, it's also increase damage taken for each hit. 1% base + 0.1% per level. good for gen build.
one more idea:
gloves, shoulders, helm, amu - sunwuko
chest, boots - raiment
belt - witching hour
pants - diggers
rings - f&r + elements or unity (cube)
bracers - gungdo + guards (cube)
set fists + fd (cube)
gems - BoT, Bane of the Stricken, PE
WotHF:FoF + EP for proc SW and F&R. other for your choice.

you can SAY/PRONOUNCE it easily
but not in game chat, where time does matter
kk and kkk is ok, just deal with it

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk#UXRPQT!bYgU!bYcaZc
Gear:
Weapons: Shen Long.
Helm, chest, legs, boots: Uliana's Strategem.
Shoulders, Gloves: Raiment.
Belt: String of Ears.
Neck: Hellfire Amulet (with Sixth Sense passive)
Wrists: Spirit Guards.
Cubed Armor: Depth Diggers
Cubed Weapon: Lion's Claw.
Cubed Jewelry: Band of Rue Chambers.
Basic idea is to spam WoTHF, SSS on CD, keep the BoH buff up as much as I can and pray for the best.
If time matters, then saying 14k / 14M / 14B is faster.
Just deal with it.
14 megabytes? 14 bytes? stop trash talking in this monk thread plz
kk and kkk is usefull and it is used all over the internet
just deal with it

but sss deals close to zero dmg even at t10 even with 4p uliana)

link the video

FD. actually its double your dps and healing.
i mean shenlongs nerf - both its bonuses now increase damage only on generators and sweeping wind
Uliana stays inchanged ofc
Really? Wow... That was my first thought when they announced the cube... But then I saw Lion's Claw
Do you have a source for that? I've not seen it anywhere but from you.
