I hope the don't buff the DH skill that adds 50% armor to my already insanely high armor I get from my passive that buffs off my main attribute, not to mention the shield that has 1200 armor, so I'm rocking about 82% damage reduction - O WAIT no the monk has that...
You are a tank, you won't do as much as a DPS EVER, stop complaining to bliz to nerf us and play your class.

Why you mad bro? Don't like scumming with the monks?

Man I feel you, my monk is really going to suffer with the nerf to my piercing punch that goes through everyone and hits them 4 times and costs almost nothing and can be done from across the map.

I really don't know what I am going to do....I don't want to quit eating with my left hand and use my keyboard, but this nerf almost directly requires it.

WTF BLIZZARD, YOU TRYING TO MAKE ME USE TWO HANDS? THIS IS UNFAIR! YOU ARE JUST GOING TO MAKE ME RAGEQUIT AND PUBLICALLY POST IN HERE THAT YOU LOST A CUSTOMER!

20% of whats on them isnt it?

Guys, I run around naked and die over and over with my female barb because I love her death cry. This isn't how the game is intended to be played.

Exploit?

Quote from maka

That's an exploit; the game's not meant to be played that way. So that fact that you are able to get good drops through an exploit means nothing to this discussion.

Changing my gear is an exploit?

Using MF is an exploit?

Not being an idiot is an exploit?

I can't figure out which of those three you are trying to imply. Regardless I did fine without MF, it just increases the rate of acquisition of useful items. Until they literally patch the game to make swapping out MF gear disallowed there is literally no reason to not do it.

Try using MF gear as well, my useful drop rate skyrocketed when i went from 80% mf to 239%. You just aren't farming correctly.

problem with MF gear is you needs those affix slots for survivability stats in inferno. MF isn't viable for me at least, playing as a barb. Maybe ranged have it easier since they dont have to fight up close and personal.

I play a monk and have no problem swapping before a kill.....soooooo.....

"Guys, dy221 here to show you how to make money on the game, I got really bored of making money myself so i'm sharing it with you so you can tank the prices for the same item. Obviously this is in my best interests and this works just as well as I have said. For the low low price of 15mil you can buy the plan from me for these gloves (yes they sold for 4.5 mil yesterday but demand just increased!!! 15 is a STEAAAAAAAAL). Good luck being rich a famous, i'm sitting here rooting for you."

Please please please don't tell me that this is the level of writing that 19 year olds possess now, it reeks of 12 years old.

1.4 AS? and trying to run LOH with it?

I don''t personally even use LOH but you need that AS for your spirit generation man..

Also 8-12 hours farming is nothing for a diablo game, also your resists are armor are way low compared to your hp, your heals do jack shit with that layout.

My 8 year old plays skyrim and lops off the heads of his enemies (can't get over his fear of the giant spiders though).

Quote from Siral

i've half of your res, half of your dps, 5k less life and can stack 5 buffs with no deaths or very few.
Secret? Atk speed and life on hit. And you miss both.

Are you in ActIII?, he isn't talking about Act I, and in act III i don't care how much LOH you have, 5k less on hp and half his res isn't going to do it.

0 out of 10 times this was obviously removed.... SHit din't had the time to try this Because of this F****king Down time 24/7

Nope, still there

Quote from Koeevu

You realize that there have been multiple (monk builds) threads / streams / players i've met that I can source DPS from correct?

Yeah, sure you can separate who's doing the dps on those streams. You're totally not full of it.

Considering that I play a lvl 60 monk in inferno actIII, yes. I can entirely relate the character sheet dps to what they are likely getting during fights considering the available buffs and builds that the class has. I have also gone through the thought process that the OP is going through when playing with a group, where I felt more useful going as far as I can into utility and ignoring dps. I didn't like the playstyle personally but it is probably more effective than what I choose to play like.

Quote from GT4

So you have Recount installed to show you the DPS people are doing? Tell me more.

@OP: Damage is always a multiple of your weapon DPS (excluding +dmg rings/amulets). Thus it'd make sense to at least try getting a weapon with semi-decent DPS and some good stats. E.g. if you can find a 500 DPS weapon with similar stats to your 200 DPS one, you'd already be doing 2.5 times the damage:)

You realize that there have been multiple (monk builds) threads / streams / players i've met that I can source DPS from correct? As well as from a strictly theoretical standpoint monks just don't have the muster when compared to the true DPS classes.

Also I'm quite sure he realizes that higher dps is better if it is available, however for his case and intended purpose, the lower dps weapon with the higher stats should be more highly valued.
