Build Guide

How many of you have that one friend who always has a hard-on for brain AFK spin Barb? I know i do. Well, glorious Monk mains of superior intellect, now it is our turn to put those simpletons in their place! I present to you, SPIN MONK!

With this build you'll be flying around at mach 13 like a mongoose on amphetamines. You'll clear rifts so fast the vault spamming Demon Hunters will say you definitely are speed hacking. And best of all, you'll be outrunning AND out damaging Crunk, the Spin Barb!

Simply spam your Breath of Heaven and Flash of Light off cooldown, and use Mystic Ally whenever your spirit gets low, next thing you know you'll have so many fine bit**es you wont know what to do with them all!

NOW GO OUT THERE AND EMASCULATE SOME BARBS!

*disclaimer* This build is actually pretty fun, its been a pet project of mine since season 5 but was never even farming viable. With the set buffs in season 16 its actually decently respectable. Also, this post is almost entirely satire and to be taken as meme value, but the build itself is actually pretty decent. Also here's my Twitch if you care, have you heard of Twitch prime? https://www.twitch.tv/silentsniperttv
