Build Guide
Ntrnettufguy here! Introducing the brand new Monk Spirit Generator V2 build that I call Static Holy Bombs! This can be a progression build and has so far been able to clear T10 and GR55 with relative ease. **Video above**
Alternatives:
- Sunwuko's helm and amulet can be used here instead of the Eye of the Storm helm and Hellfire amulet if you do not have either. You will lose out on Lightning % Damage and an additional passive, but you will gain the decoy to explode for 1000% damage when you use Cyclone Strike.
- Instead of using Unity in the cube, you can also go with Convention of Elements for more Lightning and Holy damage. Go Unity for solo runs, Convention for group clears.
- Go for Hellfire Amulet with Near Death Experience passive and select Determination as your other passive for more damage output.
- Andariel's helm can be a substitute for the helm slot if using a Hellfire amulet because it gives Lightning % Damage.
Overview:
- Auto attack with your spirit generators to get damage buff for Focus/Restraint (F/R) and to apply Exploding Palms (EPs) on the third hit from Uliana's 2-piece set bonus.
- Use Cyclone Strike to bring enemies closer, to get other damage buff for F/R, and to proc your Strongarm bracers debuff on the target(s).
- Always maintain F/R double buff uptime for 100% additional damage by using Fists of Thunder (FoT) or Way of the Hundred Fist (WotHF) and Cyclone Strike approximately every 4 seconds.
- Apply Static Charge to enemies with FoT.
- Attack with WotHF to apply a Holy damage debuff on the target. This damage lasts 3 seconds, but it stacks multiple times on the target. ** I do not know how many stacks can be applied as it is not mentioned, so for simplicity sake assume you can apply infinite stacks. You'll notice the damage from this buff increase when fighting elites and rift guardians. **
- Use Dash to get away from bad situations or for movement.
- Damage will come from auto attack WotHF, auto attack FoT, Static Charge from FoT, and the EPs. Damage from WotHF is ramped up because of increasing stacks of Holy damage to the target.

Notes:
- This build has amazing defense for standing still without much crowd control. However, the ability to escape dangerous situations is lacking with only limited Dash charges and range on your FoT and WotHF (they have a short dash mechanic to the target with limited range).
- Sunwuko's helm and amulet were used in the video instead of the recommended Eye of the Storm helm and Hellfire amulet. This was because I did not have a Eye of the Storm helm, Hellfire amulet, or Andariel's helm to use here. Eye of the Storm helm and Hellfire amulet should be used as recommended.
