[Guest Datexx]

Or could anyone else probably answer my questions?

In the actual ladder top monks all play the eye of peshkov buils, which - for me - looks so squishy.

It's entirely possible that it is a playstyle difference. They value the damage over the survivability since they have the ability to survive without the extra pieces. Also remember that many of the top monks most likely have much better gear than we do. 

You also have to remember the Paragon level of those top monks. How are they distributing points?

Hello! What you are looking at is a slight modification of the build made solely for groups; none of the soloing Monks use Eye of Peshkov. The reason why Monks can afford to use a squishy EoP setup in groups is due to the presence of support teammates, where a support Monk and a support Barb take care of adding tankyness to the group, crowd controlling enemies, etc.

Had an update and the skill set seems to have changed. Cannot set monk to the skills you have listed in the secondary slot.

[Guest Datexx]

Thanks Blainie and Deadset for clarifying this.

Now i'm fine with my gr 81 clear, as i know i'm just doing my best. Maybe gr82 will be possible for me until the end of season 7 as there isn't that much time left. :/

 

Greetings Datexx

What do you mean? I've just tested it in game and I can set all of the skills exactly as Deadset has listed.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but why isn't Hunter's Wrath an autoinclude Belt for this build? It gives 30% AS and 60% damage plus can roll 4 tanky stats on top of that.

Edit: And I just checked it in-game and it's DH only. Guess that explains that.

I see you've answered yourself here :p

I've found that wind force flurry does the best damage when I was messing around with d3planner, mangle was at 4th, hands of lightning, and searing grasp are above mangle too. This is for when you're fighting one enemy.

Forgot to put something in

Deadset:  for four-man play, what are your thoughts on "Band of the Rue Chambers" versus "Stone of Jordan"?

SoJ is better due to elemental damage and elite damage.

How often are you fighting one enemy though?

[Guest Xerodragon21]

I've tried this build multiple times even most recently with almost full ancient gear and... im still at a loss HOW is this better than the inna generator variant? i feel i kill faster,have MUUUUCH better survivability, am not constantly spirit starved, and while i feel without a 2nd ancient weapon i wont pass 75(currently 74 is my record) i didnt feel 6pc raiment did more damage or even as much. so i figured id ask someone how/why it shines since i just had to completely abandon a 70GR with it whereas i can consistently clear it with the inna in roughly 10 minutes a run.

Can you link me your armoury with your Raiment set on please?

Why don't we have an Innas Raiment Generator variation of this build? It is viable and have a decent place on the leaderboard right now.

[Guest Varix]

Hello!

Is this good with Arachyr Firebat WD duo? Or what would you recommend?

[Zagrash90 4]

I  am curious, why MP version requires 2 resource  generators?

I'm actually not sure, honestly. I'll ask.

Yes, this can work. Monk/WD is always a strong duo.

Because of how they work - you use Crippling Wave to actual dish out damage. You use WotHF to trigger and maintain the buff that grants you bonus damage based on number of enemies hit. You could engage a group of 10 enemies, use WotHF to give you +50% damage and then use CW to kill them.

Can someone explain how you can have both cyclone strike and epiphany active at the same time?

There is an option called Elective Mode for skills, found by going to Options > Gameplay.  This allows you to equip any ability on any action slot (1, 2, 3, 4, LMB, and RMB) so long as it is not mutually exclusive with other skills (think: Monk Mantras, which are explicitly 1 active). 

[Guest james9120]

Any tips on improving? Not sure about this breakpoint thing; Did some research on it but don't fully understand it. I'm missing some ancient items, working on getting those. Currently at GR80.

You have no AD. Get some of it on shoulders.

You're also putting too much focus on cdr, you really only need 8% on shoulders and a diamond in the head.

Finally use witching hour, string of ears is basically for HC players only.

Also IMO blinding speed is way better than radiance.
