Diablo 3 Monk Build




Fists of Thunder
With the Bounding Light rune for the extra AOEish damage. The Quill fiends don't have much HP so just focusing on Sarkoth will work.

Tempest Rush
With the Tailwind rune, you can move quickly to the cellar and runs become much faster. Once in the cellar, use this to get in the middle of the pack and burn all your other skills such as diablo 3 power leveling. Currently, my runs take about 20-30 seconds when the cellar spawns and about 10 seconds when the cellar does not spawn.

Seven-Sided Strike
With the Several-Sided Strike rune, this acts as a sort of "finisher" once your other +dmg% bonuses are up. After using this nothing should be alive.

Blinding Flash
With the Faith in the Light rune, the monsters take increased damage in addition to not attacking you for 3 seconds. This serves as an opener once tempest rushing into the middle of the pack.

Serenity
With the Reap What Is Sown rune, it serves as extra damage in addition to shielding you from harm. I pop this skill immediately upon entering the cellar and the damage is done once my mantra and blind are on.

Mantra of Conviction
The Overawe rune seems to be the best since monsters suffer additional damage from your attacks. Use the mantra as soon as you are in the middle of the pack to get the 3second bonus upon activation.

Fleet Footed
Extra move speed so runs are faster with Diablo 3 power leveling.

Exalted Soul
Extra spirit so you are able to pop all of your skills in succession. Useful also since Tempest Rush drains a bit of spirit.

Combination Strike
A little extra damage after using Fists of Thunder a few times. Can swap for something like Near Death Experience if undergeared.

Skill Order
With this build, the runs are fairly simple. Tempest Rush to the cellar from the checkpoint. Upon entering, use Serenity and Tempest Rush to the middle of the quill fiends. Once there, use Mantra of Conviction followed by Blinding Flash. Focus your primary attack (Fists of Thunder) on Sarkoth and once Seven-Sided Strike is up, use that to finish them off. Grab your loot, town portal/leave, rinse, and repeat.
