Build Overview

This build is to be played after killing The King in The Mist and obtaining Herald of Thunder, it's a solid build that does a lot of damage so we focus more on defense on our skill tree.

If you need the level 1 to 15 build it's Here.

Post Campaign Build: Here.

For gear, we like Energy Shield and Evasion, take Dex/InT/STR nodes as needed for the level of your gems.

Look for Life, ES, and Evasion and on your gear. Get as many Resistances as you can. In the beginning, having Evasion and Energy Shield on Gear is not important, but the more levels and skill Points you get the more bonus to Energy Shield and Evasion you will get, making it worth it.

Ascendancy:

1) I am Thunder


2) Faith is a choice... or Lead me Through Grace... if you need the spirit.


3) Faith is a choice... or Lead me Through Grace... if you need the spirit.


4) And Protect me from harm...


After level 60+ it will be time to start transitioning into an end game build. I will be Building an Archmage Trigger Invoker, I will post the theorycrafted build here, but it's not yet tested.

How it Plays

Generally you just spam Storm Wave and use Tempest Flurry for big bursts on bosses with Bell..

Storm Bell boosts your damage against bosses and hard Elites.

Orb of Storms can be cast with a Wand in your 2ndary weapon slot and increases your dps when needed.

Staggering Palm will help stunning if needed and Vaulting Impact is for mobility.

After Level 20, you will be able to use Storm Wave to clear, so just run and shoot it behind you. At this point you should have about 70% evasion and the game will be easy.

Changed talents to have more damage. I completed first 3 Act on day one, for sure monk is not the easiest class to level as.
