This is Strictly a Starter Monk Build for the fresh level 70.

As you can see there is no real gear requirement and no Cube requirements. I've been equipping what ever Rare +EXP gear was an upgrade to Damage and rolling with it. I did get a Gungdo Gear Bracer which helps with the Exploding Palms. The good thing about this Starter Build is you can use either two 1-H weapons or one 2-H weapon. Just equip the first Legendary weapons you get.

Happy Hunting

Build Guide

The Game Play


Apply Sweeping Wind (it refreshes with each enemy hit)

Apply Exploding Palm to first enemy

Use Cyclone Strike to pull in nearby enemies

Activate your Mantra (Keep this Active during every fight)

Try to save your Dash charges to get out of sticky situations (ie: molten, frost, poison, explosions and so on)


With every use of Cyclone apply Exploding Palm to a new target (if you have a Gungdo Gear Bracer this is not as necessary)
