You can bot on 10000000 accounts and 99,99% of the community doesnt give a #$%&.
Bots are worth nothing in a game without economy, you can bot for your own satisfaction tho.
Can your lightning monk really do t6 with that gear set up?
Sadly but only viable group monk setup is Explosive Palm Buff Support Monk. %element doesnt matter, the only thing you need is decent tougness, decent % elite damage, and Exploding Palm Fist weapon.
I play such role for friends group play: full sets Wizzard, Witch Doctor and Crusader dps, I buff and explode things. T6 rifts 5-10min depending on density, conduits etc.
guys, what do you think of bracers? is it worth to use reapers one instead of strongarms for more pillars, or it would be better to have +30% dmg on the pillar after knockback?
I'm not a huge fan of Strongarms, mainly because most yellow elite and bosses are immune to knockbacks, and champion packs usually die quite fast anyway. I'd rather use Reaper's Wraps for more spirit generation or Aughild's for the set bonus. Depends on the rest of your gear though.
True, with ~300 spirit pool Reapers should be nice especially if you have WD in group with green frog offhand picking globes with huge range.
Sorry, but why the hell would you want sweeping wind in this build. Imo replace it with Inner Sanctuary with Forgotten Palace for 30%+ damage and toughness, so you can get dps rune on Epiphany.
Also pick +100 spirit passive and +spirit items, maybe paragons. If you have around 300 spirit you dash into the pack, pop Epiphany and Inner Sanctuary than you make a prison for pack (5 pilars one by one). It kills T4/T5 pack almost instantly with good gear. Mythic Rhytm is nono sorry
If i count properly that is around 7500% weapon damage.
Sweeping is good passive damage. Always up, rarely have to refresh it. Destroys mobs even far away. Not that useful on elites, but then again, they die pretty fast.
Your suggestion of boosting spirit to cast more pillars is interesting. It's one of the reason why I hadn't decided on Transcendence over Exalted Soul yet. I'd be tempted to use Forgotten Palace though as keeping elites together is not that much of an issue. They die pretty fast, and if one gets aways, Epiphany can easily deal with it. But that might be a downside of using WoL over LTK, LTK stuns, WoL doesn't.
No need to stun, you surround them with pillars, which kinda works like croud control. Sweeping Wind only if you have inna 3 piece, otherwise no point.
You can test both setups to see what works best, my setup is for group play.

1. Inna items, except for belt are very difficult to roll properly. You either have to be lucky to get proper stats. I cba to wear 3/4 crippled stats items.
Yes, I agree there is many other proc based items you can use but, these are the items that offer synergy with being a lightning monk while still getting a good bit of the "unique" procs.
Face the fact, you write about lightning monk build, like 20 other people in 20 other topics. I am 100% sure proc build can be much more unique and interesting.
Sorry, but there are many more interesting procs that people can use in "proc build". Build You presented is pretty much standard and you cant call it proc build. Here we go:
1.Firewalkers...
2. 200% Fan of Knives shoulders...
3. Hellfire ring...
4. Drain life ring...
5. Belt that explode on globes...
6...Many more
About gems: I did many tests on T4 and T5 difficulty comparing gems in weapons (130% crit damage vs 20% elites) and still undisputed champion of the world is Green Gem!!!
Azmodam kills on T4 averagish 3 sec faster with green gem, T5 averagish 5 sec faster with green gem.
