u need a google account, copy it and then enter your stats...

u need some starting gold to get somewhere, an option would be to buy gold find on items, to make a gold find set, so buy a new set of gear for like 20k a piece, gonna cost u like 300k with as much goldfind on , other stats are not that important unless also dex and some vit but just dex is good too. And u farm nightmare siegebreaker a couple hours. If u have alot of goldfind and u can make 300k by just clearing siegebreaker on very easy nightmare takes about 7 min and 30k per run. Get running speed shoeds, take the running passive ,like a build for fast farming. Its boring but if do this for some hours or just 1 hour each day, u gonna have like another 1.5 mill for 5 hours.

with 5 million i can make a monk that does 30k dps 500 resist and 30k hp, so about your stats but higher dps just by biuying cheapo items. Actually i could probably build this monk with two million by waiting on the bids to end and get it 4 times cheaper, since some items i could get alot cheaper.

your trying to hard getting high dps weapons, with your money u should be looking at 600 dps weapon with like 250 dex and 40-60 crit damage and socket. instead of buying crappy high dps weapons, u should look for perfect lower dps weapons. Why because for u they gonna do alot more dps. If u can buy two weapons with 250+ dex on it u gain like 300 dex, thats alot of dps..and if they have alot of crit damage also u gonna gain even more dps there..

your 700 dps spear is really crap, a 500 dps weapon with good stats would be alot better!!!

i would focus on gear instead of weapons, gear is cheaper, get more crit chance, u can find a better ring with 4% crit chance for like 300k. Find a helmet with a socket and less resist..

pants and chest is probably the best upgrades u can make, u wanne search for chest with three sockets, dex and your resist and then check prices from low too high and find the best one

same with pants, u wanne check for two sockets, dex and your resist and look from cheap to highpriced.. u dont want too much resist on these u wanne have decent resist but alot of vitaty, pants and chest can have like 140 vit + easy. this will boost your hp alot. And the socket u can fill with dex to gain dps.. u wanne have a decent amount of dex, resist, alot of vitality on these two pieces..

but its hard, since your total gear needs reworking but a good chest and pants is half the work,

its best u save up gold now, try not to die much and research your items and then buy after patch hits.. crit damage is only good when u have alot of crit chance, crit chance increases your sweeping winds cyclone damage. So always get high critchance then worry about crit damage since that will come from your weapons.. try to get amulet with loh and crit chance on it

Elites on Act 3 frustrate everyone, including me for about 2 months. My suggestion would be to upgrade your weapons. Your dps is too low to roll through act 3 and abuse Elites. If you are going to dual weild act three i would aim to have at least a DPS of 35k. This makes guys die before they even have a chance to even touch you. This will help you clear out the fodder and focus just on Elites. Once you can do that you will be suprised how fast they can fall. Ya you can still die but you will steamroll most of them. I would look for weapons that have LOH, Socket and Dex 100+. Put an emerald in the socket for more crit and soon your dps will go through the roof. Both of my weapons total cost me about 20 mil but they were worth it to me. Just my suggestions

Here is my profile and i am finally able to roll through act 3. Yes i still die when i get certain nasty mobs but it is not that often.

I don't understand why a monk has to have millions of millions of millions of gold, in his gear, in order to farm for gear lol

Also my problem is being insta-gibbed by things like stack desecrates or arcane sentries, not just general wear and tear

Also, I swear there is some conspiracy going on because when I play my wizard everything is mortars and when I play the monk everything is fire chains and molten

String of ears is a waste of stats. U dont need the melee reduce anymore. Using an amu without crit dmg on it is a waste too in terms of dps. Amu is the only armor where u can get a big chunk of crit dmg others then weapons.

Quote from Lumis

Oh wow. Your gear looks really nice, and should be more than enough for anything. You have enough life, but armor is low. Switch to enchantress (I'm assuming you run with Scoundrel) for quick increase in armor. Also look for upgrades that would give you more attack speed. You have some LoH, but without a lot more attack speed, that amount might not be enough to carry you.

Quote from ballon

Your armor is low because you don't yield a shield and use string (less base armor, way less agility netting even more armor via passive), but i don't see a problem there. Actually your setup looks really well rounded and you should be capable of beating the game just fine. If you struggle anywhere just replace your current mantra with evasion/hard target or keep a plain loh amulet in your pocket for longer bossfights.
