    Quote from SolusCoda

    I tested this on Azmodan mp10 and I have 1,479,678 DPS while my character sheet says 54k. Now that is a big difference. Just points out that people who go for purely higher numbers on the stat sheet are missing out.

    What???? Post a link to your profile, please!

    I'm about 125k sheet dps and do about 990k-1m real dps on Azmodan with Overawe, Faith in the Light and Breath of Heaven...

    I desperately need feedback too. I know I'm in MF gear (doing A3 MP2 runs pretty fast, near 375 MF buffed), but I think my DPS is somewhat low, when comparing myself with people with pretty much similar gear!?

    I noticed you're using combination strike and only one spirit generator. Adding min/max damage to your ammy and other ring could help. I don't think you're too unreasonably low for stacking MF and only staying in MP2 honestly

    I think an easy upgrade for you would be an amulet. You could probably find better for under 25M and pick up a good amount of DPS with 10% CC.

    Same with gloves. Maybe find something with 9% CC and more CHD. Again, probably under 25M.

    Edit -- Also, your offhand could be replaced cheaply with something along the lines of 95% + CHD AND LOH which wouldn't hurt.

    Chest looks a bit awkward, not sure how much you are benefiting from 8% ASI. I'm sure it's a good amount and I'm also sure you've already compared it to something else with a good amount of dex, but thought I'd mention it anyway.

    Nice gear!

    I've made *some* progress.

    I'd really like to break the 100k barrier.

    I think I need a LOH/LS weapon with a socket and CD to do this.

    Unfortunately, I only have about 20M to spend.

    Any suggestions or does anyone have anything for sale that would help?

    My next set of upgrades after the weapon is going to be Natalya's boots & ring, that should net 7%+ cc and some, hopefully, nice stat upgrades.

    I imagine this would make a great offhand for someone.

    You can see the item in my mainhand on my profile:

    Either contact in-game (won't be on for about 14 hours,) PM here or reply to the thread.

    Thanks!

    Thanks.

    I found think post:

    I'll try to plug everything in there and see what happens.

    Thanks,

    Thanks to everyone for the suggestions.

    I currently do MP3-4, so I the 3% lifesteal seems okay for me so far. I haven't really tried higher MP levels yet. I will keep that in mind moving forward.

    Last question, is there a resource where I could "plug in" some new weapons to my profile and see what that would do to my damage?

    Thanks again!

    Good Name, I also am Ian. : )

    The most obvious change is to get sockets in both of your weapons, which will add 200% crit damage.

    Everything else is pretty good (except for that belt....)

    Also, your gems are pretty bad. Those can be upgraded, but it likely is more cost effective to focus on new weapons.

    Yep -- probably the best name there is. lol

    Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not entirely sure how D3 mechanics work, so a bit of explanation would be beneficial.

    If I were to find something in the 900 DPS range with Life Steal (for one weapon,) crit damage and a socket, would two of those net me more DPS than what I'm currently at?

    Let's say I can get two one handers with about 50% crit damage, and I were to put some good gems in them.

    Where abouts do you think I'd end up on the damage scale?

    As for the belt, I'm looking for a Witching Hour, but they're a bit pricey.. I will probably end up buying $20.00 worth of gold on the RMAH and try to use that to find something to get me started.

    Thanks again!

    I think, but am not certain, that crit damage % is my limiting factor currently.

    I would like to get to about 120k dps as cost effectively as possible.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    My battle tag is Ian-1879 and my Monk's name is Josa.
