I'm actually hoping that Zt1mQ turns out to be right :p. Hope they make the buff from Shenlong's only apply to generator damage. That way the set is still useful for the gameplay it was supposed to create (generator builds), but isn't OP as all hell for other builds (loldash)
yeah you're right Talyn, generator build is the way to go, if that doesn't happen and the ulianna set stays the same, I won't play diablo 3 this season lol
Same Xantrix, I'm actually playing a generator build in the current season and it works... Sorta well, but not amazingly so. With the Shenlong set it'll go from sorta viable to one of the top builds.
IF they Overnerf Shenlong to the point generator builds aren't viable, then I'll just retire the Monk and play Hammerdin.
at the first moment when 2nd bonus procs we will have 394*2%+100% dmg(don't know exactly how they will stack) so theoretically 788+100=888% dmg increase and then lower
before this change we will have 394+300=694
so now our max criticals will be stronger, but min wil be much lower

Sorry thats incorrect..
Yesterday it was , forget it I'll just post Davlok's explanation
Generetor build feels strong and agile, facebreaking the enemy, other sets doesn't have that flavor, maybe hammer of the ancients or seismic slam when it gets rework
Lets face it... We all saw this nerf coming :p. It's actually not as bad as I was expecting, I was figuring the proc would be lowered to ~150%, didn't think they'd buff the passive part.
hope the set doesn't get fucked, wish to play monk again was my fav class in vanilla
but SSS + EP still works right? i have my monk with madstone + FoA & the daibo as kanai effect, deals good damage
So, new build coming to the PTR...
Taking bets now on Shenlong getting nerfed :p? Who's in?
I bet that they will be nerf, although I don't want that to happen but D3 dev's are retards, not like blizzard north
So play the build as much as you can in the ptr and enjoy it cause the dev's will ruin it

question what is up with ulianna i know they have no rune on ep so yall have a dead key but what else?

yeah I didn't play monk that much since vanilla, waiting to have generator builds again, I just got the new sets and that's it, store them in my stas.
Same for me going to move to hammerdin if gen build and uliana doesn't work, or just play my DH still
I did a 54 with a glass cannon set up, low hp, low resistances, just pure attack speed, did it pretty well
Hmmm... Does the Explosive Palm proc from Uliana 2pc proc the clone from Sunwuko 2pc :p?
Could be fun to use 2pc Raiment/Uliana/Sunwuko if it does.
Aww, it was a bit of a long shot, since you're not actually CASTING EP, but it would have been fun.
EDIT: Interesting change in the latest PTR patch
Hunter's Wrath (Belt): Your primary skills (reworded from Hatred Generators) attack 30% faster and deal [VALUE]% increased damage.
Think this will work with our Spirit Generators now? Would be pretty funny to add this to the Shenlong build.
so if we have 395 spirit
at the first moment when 2nd bonus procs we will have 394*2%+100% dmg(don't know exactly how they will stack) so theoretically 788+100=888% dmg increase and then lower

2.3 PTR-1.0
(300%+100%) (395*1%+100%) = 19.8x damage
2.3 PTR-2.0
(100%+100%) (395*2%+100%) = 17.8x damage
These are simply representations of the damage at max when shen is proc'd Then vs Now..
(300+100) and now (100 + 100) are during proc parts..
Max damage is lower by 10% ish
damage building up is ( 395 x 2 + 100 ) / ( 495 ) = 1.7979 , 79.79% higher
-Darth#1885
By the way this change is poorly designed... Currently Pure Gen is already way ahead even on SC, and in HC Uli does better than DS..
so what do they do, nerf DS.. ?? not to mention any other possible builds that arent doing as well

so is still viable at least, I like it, did you try it already?
does the hunter's wrath work with generator build with the monk? it should lol it says primaries
