Game: Diablo III

[Assertn]

18 hours played, act 3 on normal, level 27 monk. Not sure how many hours you guys are playing to be on higher difficulties with such high level characters.

Blizzard has its shit down, releasing at the start of summer vacation.

So I'm in act 1 on nightmare with a level 33 monk.

This is my grind setup:

One thing I especially love to do with the grind setup is combine cyclone with lashing tail or wave of light to alternate drawing enemies into me and knocking them away.

I also have some heavy vitality buffs on my gear, too. I think my monk has like 3600 hitpoints right now.

I went the other direction, sacrificing hp for damage. My level 27 monk has 1250hp, 705 armor, and 205 dps. He annihilates swarms of mobs and bosses quickly, but is susceptible to high damage attacks (I've died 4 times total, twice to Belial and twice to getting swarmed).

If I do play the higher difficulties, I'll probably switch to demon hunter or use the monk but beef up his hp and defense.
