I realize after that I broke the 4pc set after I uploaded the video. The main point though is to show the mobility loss in a speed clear from using a Tzo.
Just wanted to see how far a pure bell build would go up to.
Running a no generator build using legacy Incense Torch, no SOJ and only 11% to WoL bonus. Lots of dmg missing from the setup. Guessing with bare minimum gems and 50% WoL from Tzo + Incense Torch, it would hit about 35 before capping out.
Pretty much able to facetank the majority of the damage while epiphany is up. Electrified? Arcanes? Frozen Orb? Give it to me all at the same time baby. Dodge OP.
Mob type was a disaster,everything just kept running away. Gameplay could be alot better but somehow still got it done.
As far as how I feel about the gam eplay, it's not what I prefer but what can you do. Hopefully they start buffing our skills so we can actually play the game.
Once you're able to keep your spirit refilled, there is no reason to ever use a intense torch. The thing with FD is it works of attacks, not proc chance. The faster you attack, the more chances you have to proc it which works out great with the Swiftness gem. By gathering a large group of enemies and killing them off, each time a enemy dies it has a chance to drop globes with syerngizes with reaper wraps.
In the end it comes down to this. Dropping 3-4 bells per second with a FD and refilling your spirit super fast since FD's proc is active or dropping 1-2 bells per second with Intense Torch and always having your spirit bar full.. Over a course of a run time, you're probably dropping 100-200% more bells while being able to sustain spirit with a a generator.
I've also tried a Physical "stun" build, but the damage doesn't seem to be high enough since you are trying to buff 2 elements. One physical skill I do like in higher GR is WoTh: Assimilation, I feel like LOTS of monks are overlooking this skill. 5% dmg for each enemy tagged, you can easily tag 8 enemies in GR 30+, that 40% more damage for 5 seconds.. As of now, I can't decide which one I liek better, Assimilation of Fist of Fury. Higher chance to proc Swiftness vs 20-40% dmg for 5 secs...
If you plan to use Spam WoL with a a FD, don't think there is way to upkeep spirit without a generator. LTK on the other hand is a bit more manageable.

Just messing around the bells again since dropping them in vanilla.For some reason I had bane of the trapped socketed in so losing quite a bit of damage potential there. Netting about 10-11 min avg full clear time in T6. Damage capped out at about 30 GR with my gearset, maybe someone with better gear can squeeze to 31-32 without gems.
Think of the potential if the simply buffed it empowered wave by 1.5-2x it's damage. Bells for days with heals for dayssssss
Edit: Uploading full clip, should be up in like an hr or so.
Just wanted to give a backstory to how this run came about. Had a good night with the buds drinking and came home to a good rift to end my night.
Like a self birthday gift.
You sound salty. I got a lucky rift and got a good clear time. Isn't that how all the top clear times are made? You Mad? Jelly? I can't tell except you sound bitter as fuck.
Come back when u have a better clear time and maybe the next thing you say will actually matter.
Don't know why everyone is up in arms about this rimeheart/frostburn build. It's OK for solo when CERTAIN conditions are available, like high density or non-dense ranged whites. No density = screwed. It will not consistently perform well through all rift conditions. If you have no furnace, how are you guys going to kill the rift guardian?
Weng's physical build is still better. A traditional CDR ZDS monk /w sunkeeper outperforms a Rimeheart/Frost support monk anyday. The proc rates are just way too random to provide a consistent result.
It looks like you have the adequate DPS/mitigation for T4 so going the DPS route may be better if you plan to stay under T4. I personally wouldjust leave it the way it is atm.
