I have always enjoyed reading things that would better help players progress in all types of games, but I have ran into a snag with my Monk in Inferno level even after a lot of research and waching videos (tahnks btw Enmity). I cannot progress at all in the Heart of SIn level in Act III Inferno. If anyone can provide some suggestions/assistance, it would be greatly appreciated. Below is a run down of my monks stats and the specialization I use.
A couple things I noticed (keep in mind I'm no Act 3 expert):
You seem to have decent survivability (armor, vit, resists, and a very decent block chance), but I think I've seen Monks with OwE going as high as 900-1k resists so maybe that's one area that needs improvement.
The combination of an average LoH (700~ when a lot of people are going upwards of 1500) and low attackspeed (1.20, plus 15% from Thundeclap) is probably hurting your sustainability. So you're reducing a lot of damage but not regaining a lot of that back (probably gaining about 1k-1.2k HP/second back).
Your crit chance isn't amazing for using Cyclone. I've tried using it having 10% crit chance and it felt like it didn't work very well (only spawned cyclones every now and then). I think it might be best to swap that out for a Mystic Ally (that will have decent survivability with your defensive stats) or another Sweeping Wind rune.
