Iam not sure about Bane of the Stricken, If it isnt better to switch it for Zeis or Esoteric Alteration

Hi all,

do you think it could be effective to use Crystal fist over the Kyoshiros blade for more defensive capabilities, Timing the Dashing Strike into running Epiphany can give you quite huge defense boost.

Can appriciate any tips and reccomandations. Iam just heading to get pretty standard WoL build, but I got these thoughts on the road and wanted to discuss them :). Just now iam missing few things to have this setting on my monk (running the variation with Crystal fist - because of i got ancient one, still missing the Tzo Krins Gaze, have slotted boots in the cube instead the Magefist/Cindercoat, because i didnt get ancients yet, and dont have decent unity with socket yet), missing some ancients - wrists, Vengeful wind, Kioshiros blade, and iam rolling GR72 in 6 mins now (havent gone more further yet), but 72 was breeze now, so i can deffinitely push few rifts further :).
