  • Diablo 3: Season 24 Monk Inna’s Mantra Fire Mystic Ally Build for Patch 2.7.1

    I decided to revise my original post about the Inna’s Mantra build based on my own testing on PTR. Originally, I made a statement that Ethereals would not make a difference but I have changed my mind based on what I’ve seen on PTR. On top of that there had been a post-PTR update to…

  • Diablo 3: Season 24 Monk Patterns of Justice Build for Patch 2.7.1

    One of the top monk builds going into Season 24 will be the Patterns of Justice build. Based on Tempest Rush as the primary damage output, the Patterns of Justice build is a channeling one with a play style similar to Whirlwind Barbarians and Strafe Demon Hunters. It can be built for speed and high…

  • Diablo 3: Season 24 Monk Uliana Exploding Palm Build for Patch 2.7.1

    Although the Uliana set is one of my less favorite sets around, it will be one of the starting Haedrig Gift sets for Season 24. Since the Monk is getting a huge upgrade through the revised Inna’s set and Mystic Ally, most likely people will be starting off with this set.

  • Diablo 3: Inna’s Mantra Build for Patch 2.7.1 (PTR)

    With the PTR coming out on Friday for patch 2.7.1, I decided to do some theory crafting for the monk as it’s seeing a major change to the Inna’s set and a few supporting items and skills. Right now, the build is looking like a minion build focused on the Fire Ally rune from Mystic…

  • Diablo 3 Season 21 Review

    I got burnt out on Path of Exile after grinding the last few leagues. The latest league didn’t really excite me so I decided to take a break and go back to some other games. One game that did intrigue me was Diablo 3 due to the new sets (particularly the Demon Hunter set).

  • Diablo 3: Innes Build with Tasker and Theo Gloves

    Right now, the Innes Monk is possibly my favorite build next to the Marauder Demon Hunter build. I’ve seen a few variants of the build, including one that uses Exploding Palm and the hardcore one that Quin69 uses that goes for more defensive stats. But oddly enough, I haven’t really seen anyone use Tasker and…

  • Diablo 3: Innes’ Monk Build 3.0

    Right now, the top end monks for Season 5 use the revamped Innes set. The new Innes set is all about the Monk’s allies. This post talks about the basic build and a variant I’m running.

  • Diablo 3: Uliana Set Build Review

    I haven’t written about Diablo 3 in a while mostly because I’ve been busy with work or just flat out playing Diablo 3.  And when I play Diablo 3, I’m mostly adhering to my main guides for the most part. Thus far though, I did not put much effort into the Uliana build in terms…

  • Diablo 3: And Yet More PTR Testing With Monk, Marauders Demon Hunter and Kanai’s Cube

    Once again, I managed to get into the PTR for some testing. I did revisit the Marauders Demon Hunter build once again as well as put more emphasis on a Sunwuko-Innes combo monk. In addition, I’ve been playing around with Kanai’s Cube with regards to another power, the ability to convert rares into legendaries.

  • Diablo 3: Patch 2.2 Test Drive Tonight

    All day I eagerly anticipated getting home to get my hands on the new patch. Originally, I thought about hitting the gym but it rained so it pretty much provided me with a reasonable excuse to head straight home after work. For the most part, I had been reading about the patch through forum posts…
