Build Guide

When using Lord Greenstone's Fan

The build is designed to take advantage of FoK and bola AoE for fast, easy clearing of trash packs.

30 Stack FoK + travelers damage buff will have you one shotting elites

Stack +Lightning on neck + bracers

Karlei's Point has higher dps output and will push Grifts higher/faster when coupled with vengence/dawn.

It's also good to note that this build, much like static charge monk in it's early stages will require some fishing at higher difficulties.
