I don't play a lot, and I don't really have a lot to spend. I'm not asking for hand outs, I'm asking for advice.
I often sit around 400-600k gold, occasionally scratching on a mil, though that is rather uncommon. I clearly won't be sitting on a 150k dps character anytime soon, however I'm having difficulties in even in MP2/3, and even MP1 feels incredibly slow.
I'm wondering what I can work on that will up my damage by the most, what will increase my effectiveness the best. Survival..generally..isn't an issue.
In short: If this were your character, on a 500k-1M/week allowance, what would you focus on?
Echoing fury: 800 dps, 150 dex, open socket
1h with 850 dps, 800+ LoH, open socket (Note: Get one with 1.4 attack speed. Note 2: You can get such a weapon for as low as 100k, or try to get one with some dex, that will be more expensive)
The point is: Right now you have a lot of LoH, but your attack speed is slow, so it doesn't trigger very often. With the high attack speed of echoing fury and a fast off-hand, you should get the same amount of healing with 800-900 LoH on just one weapon. On top of that you gain two open sockets, which should get at least 65%-70% crit damage gems. If your LoH is not high enough you can also drop an amethyst in one of the sockets
Ok, then you need more crit chance. The best place to get it is the amulet.
Your resistances are a bit confused, I see both lightning and cold resist.
The passives are a bit weird. You should keep STI for the armor buff. You shouldn't need Transcendence with that amount of LoH.
Yeah, I was messing around with the passives, just seeing how each of them faired after the patch changes.
As for Lit vs Cold res: I just searched for trifecta gloves with dex, bid on every one under 20k - those are the ones I won. The boots dropped for my friend today, he handed em to me.
I used to play on America Server, but I just started another account on the Asia server so that I could always play during server down time. With 500k on Asian AH, you guess what I can do?
40kdps, 40k HP, 650 AR and 7k armour with 40%cc, 1.8AS shield+sword monk +LOH and pickup radius as well.

Thanks for the advice!
Top suggestions on a ~$20/40M budget?

No problem farming MP1 and MP2.
erk..how do you force an update?
