The build: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk#WfaSgQ!YaZ!aZabab


Description: mistreatment this build I will tank most elites and massive crowds whereas delivering hefty amounts of dps.

Crippling Wave (Mangle) - this can be my goto aoe spirit builder, initial i take advantage of Cyclone Strike (Implosion) then I pound some incapacitating Wave.

Mangle appeared the foremost good selection though concussion might give further protection if your troubled.

Cyclone Strike (Implosion) - this can be for dragging enemys in so as to destroy them expeditiously.

Fists of Thunder (Thunderclap) - this can be for single enemies or bosses, the thunderclap is for chasing down goblins teleporters and customarily evading bosses. this ability is nice as a result of it build spirit terribly quickly and permits you to spam mantras so as to tank robust enemies.

Sweeping Wind (Firestorm) - pretty nice for going in some further dps into those elite champion packs or typically for a lot of economical aoe destruction. this ability is not a requirement for this build and may get replaced.

Serenity (Peaceful Repose) - button, nuff said.

Mantra of Healing (Boon of Protection) - i am still deciding between this and mantra of evasion, primarily its a spammable heal (with transcendence) + regen and fast heal+ dmg reduction for two seconds.



Passives:

Transcendence - associate degree absolute should.

Resolve - Flat injury reduction the third passive is not vital timely and you'll just about go away with what suits you.
