"At what point does anyone take damage? Never if you pull, blind, repeat. the team should NOT be taking forever to kill and shouldn't require healing. if they do something is seriously wrong. Maybe you should try to spam cyclon a little more and keep the mob clumped up so they aren't hitting the team." - Czar

"The next is 'ok'. Ideal would be to reroll the armor into 20% phycial damage for that extra palm explosion." - Czar

"Shield isn't ideal in zdps. Fist and Borns would be better." - Czar

"Nice RNG :) Gratz" - Czar

"Showing off? gratz. This gear looks nice." - Czar

"the fist came with a socket? Nice... Roll the Dex (or spirit regen) off for more cooldown (10%)" - Czar

"Great ring for ZDPS, Gratz. rolling str to vita is the safest choice for 'future' play.. but for now you can re-roll the CDR and get the perfect 8%. perfect CDR rolls are huge for top level ZDPS." - Czar

"only reason to consider that new one is for the Lightning OWE (most monks are light after all) You can roll LOH to Crit Dmg (or similar) and drop a little dmg maybe but gain huge with the OWE secondary." - Czar

"All blizzard monks should be use to blizzard nerfs by now... Who remembers the classic Dex + Attackspeed builds? Ya they nerf the monk over and over but does it stop us from playing it? Nope... I'll monk for ever." - Czar

"...BUT is any of it worth wild? Tell me one of those FoA has Socket + CDR on it. Or Phycial SoJ? If no, not lucky;)" - Czar

"Nice guide, but The paragon point distribution is off IMHO. Points into MS > Dex. The guide already has you running with STI, so more damage mitigation is better than vita (even if it is only a little). Defense go Life Regen, Armor, then AR since AR is already stacked so high, monk needs these other slots to make up for missing migration. Last Utility, Area Damage is NUMBER ONE! This spell creates such a better domino effect when popping a single EP. AD > RCR > Gold." - Czar

"Dump Aughilds and craft borns shoulders/chest. You need to have Kegegis or Laws helm for zDPS no generator. Those weapons are doing nothing for you. You can also craft Borns weapon if you have no better options (better would be sunkeeper + FoA or alike.) Strong Arms is just to good for team, keep that." - Czar

"Playing t6 zDPS monk all the time with Jade doctors. They typically give me leftover WD gear and I give them left over monk gear." - Czar

"how are the spells i'm using? good picks for passives? What element should I be using?" - Czar

"Thanks. Also, why do Pet Doctors pref RRoG over the SoJ?" - Czar

"Strong Arms will add a lot to your build for you and team. Also you should have more CDR. 5 in shoulders should be 8. 7 in amulet should be 8. 5 in ring should be 8. With those improvements you have almost 100% Epiphany and elite dmg reductions/control/life on kill becomes less important because you never take damage." - Czar

"this guide is legit. IMHO borne sholders + chest and then Captains belt + pants (with ring o/c) is a better goal to hit. This leaves boots available for either ice climber or illusion and weapon available for either Sunkeeper or rime." - Czar

"reroll the 7% damage, and end up with 10%CDR" - Czar

"Oh Right. :) OWE resist as secondary. and socket for the future legendary gem. Dreamy..." - Czar

"At some point you will want to gear with more cooldown. you do this at the cost of Elite damage. Then the SoJ becomes more important to make up for that." - Czar

"The Elite damage on the SoJ is required for efficient EP. A SoJ with physical, elite, cooldown, all resist would be dreamy." - Czar

"Guess it depends on how much downtime you have on Desert Shroud. If enough updown then armor and vita becomes almost worthless. Lots of resist is the primary stat you want. 2k AR is good, somewhere between 6-8 armor is fine, and 500k HP is enough." - Czar

"Build exactly like zDPS, just replace gloves and weapon with Frostburn and Rime. Strength isn't necessary. So much elite dmg isn't required once you get FoA, so focus on the best CDR you can get as a goal." - Czar

"How can you compare a Group build to a Solo build? Isn't even the same. I doubt your "1 hour ez zDPS" build can solo t4 any better than your "100 hours lightning super elite" build." - Czar

"On this note, PLENTY of the monk trying to run t6 _are baddies_ and are being carried. Just because they 'do not die' and equip EP doesn't make them useful in the slightest. Those monks give legit zDPS monkers a bad wrap. They need to debuff the mobs and buff the team. Ez signs of a baddie monk are use of shields, missing items like FoA, crappy gear like Blackthorns, missing +physical/+elite damage in rings/bracers/amulets, etc... Many of these so called confused monks are just bad and don't realize it." - Czar

"roll for CDR. I did just that and didn't notice/miss the socket in any way but really appreciated the extra cooldown." - Czar

"Congrats, nice find. IMHO, the vita is the least useful stat. AD can help the EP explosion and spirit regen becomes less useful with more cooldown and or law's blinding flash helm." - Czar
