Quin's GR 100+ R6 Generator Monk

We recently featured a build and video guide by Quin on a Monk spec that could quickly farm higher Torment difficulties. Today we would like to highlight a Greater Rift pushing build, for those who are also getting to this point in Season 7. Check out the written and video guides below!

 

Hey boyz!

In my opinion/experience this build is currently the strongest possible monk setup for pushing the highest SOLO GR on a monk!

This build is trash for T10-13 Speed farming, for a speed build check: http://www.diablofans.com/builds/82237-ltk-monk-t11-13-speed

Please note: I always keep my diablo fans guides up to date and will be making adjustments to the guide whenever there is a shift in meta! so be sure to check back, and vote on the guide!

Basic game-play strategy:
  • Dash every 4-6 seconds for the R6 Damage buff
  • Cyclone every 5 seconds for 50% damage reduction (Pull monsters to templars Oculus Ring circles)
  • Use Breath of Heaven on cooldown (when in combat)
  • Use Epiphany on cooldown vs any dangerous monsters (almost everything)
  • Hold down Crippling Wave
Important tips:
  • You want to have +Max Spirit (secondary) on both weapons & paragon!
  • You want to have secondary resist everywhere possible, or else your Harmony won't do anything!
  • This build is very squishy, and you need to dodge almost every avoidable "BIG" hit.
Skill variations:
  • Dashing Strike - Radiance (for slightly more dmg output but HUGE eHP loss)
  • Inner Sanctuary - Temple of Protection (replace MoS - Need heavy CDR, Good for Epiphany downtime)
  • WoHF - Fists of Fury (replace Mangle - Holy damage setup, Slightly worse IMO)
