Sweeping wind is pretty much core in any lightning build, there really isn't any skill you can replace it with that won't leave you with a net loss in damage.
Use that Odyn Son on rift guardians and bosses instead of TF. OS proc is one of the stongest in game espcially on single target fights. Personally I'd run OS + SoH to skip switching weapons.
Oh, and when choosing the weapon to use in main hand, don't look at weapon dps, but the damage range instead. Slow weapons tend to have lower dps, but way higher damage range, and that is what the skills use as a base for damage calculations. By damage range I mean the range right under the big DPS numbers, not the elemental/black damage roll.
sweeping wind is amazing ofc but when ur blowing through mobs instantly its just a nuisance to keep up
in regards to the weapons, shard of hate is strength and thats not just a typo, correct? What can you reroll on the weapons?
personally I think I'd use OS+TF, OS giving you a large boost to ur lightning dps as well as a great proc and ur TF is pretty much perfect
idk if shard's proc is more valuable than having a dex weapon
Theres a post around that tested that SOH + OS is the best combination, reason being is that SOH plus DR:SB is pretty much proc city, and currently OS chain lightning bounces three times on a single target, whereas TF only bounces twice on a single target. Since light inning monks lack single target dps, I would say SOH + OS is currently BIS For weapons.
Odyn Son: 2150 dps, 683 dex, 20% lightning and 40% proc
Shard of Hate: 2225 dps, 749 str, 2300 lph, 229% proc damage.
All weapons do have a socket. I'm leaning towards soh and tf because of the speed. Thoughts?
dem procs galore

siar89 -I know, exept that some skills use (or used to at least, don't think there has been changes) main hand damage.
