Hey peeps.
Finally got my monk equipped with some decent gear, but for the life of me, I cannot kill Ghom in any way.
I tried switching my shield (loses 50 all res, 10 crit, 9 dodge) with another 950 dps wep that has 3% Life Steal and try and face tank him, but am still dropping like a fly.
Am I missing anything here? :/ http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/5838/screenshot009i.jpg
You and I have very similar stats, and I consider him very easy on my monk. You can't facetank him, the clouds do too much dmg. Kite him and make sure the clouds get as tightly placed as possible. Use your cooldowns well. With your dps, he should be dead long before he enrages and fills the room.
What build are you using? I'd recommend FoT - Thunderclap and MoC - Overawe for this fight. A defensive build does not work well for this particular fight.

Yep using those as well.
I tried running with a barb for warcry and even used healing mantra with +20% resist which upped my all res to 1400 and still could not face tank him :/
So best way is kiting him tightly then?
Yeah, the clouds do more and more dmg the longer you stay in them. So when you get a cloud thrown on you, you can stick around a few seconds (more if you got Serenity up), then just back up and let him walk towards you out of the cloud. Soon as he's out, go at him again. Ghom's attack by themselves are harmless, only thing dangerous are the clouds.
