Hello, seeing that the Monk of Chayula might get popular next league, i thought some people might be interested or have question about this Chaos monk I did in Dawn of the Hunt or any interactions around it.

Path of Building: https://pobb.in/uL6LHNAWWws-

Made it to lvl 94 in HC trade, here's some footage:

Note that i don't pretend this is as good as some of the best build. I got very good gear and mapping is medium.

My take after playing it:

Super fun!

It was very good for bossing despite not using the sacrifice tricks so it also felt good because I wasn't cheesing them.

Mapping is still decent because it's using the satifying ice strike. It was particulay good for farming ritual because i used Chaos innoculation and i could just spam flickerstrike without swinging myself passed monsters.

Some of my first take after seeing the patch notes:

I was using the Ascendency Lucid dream to double the Values of Purple flame from Mantra of desctruction. This will no longer work so it's a 70% less extra chaos damage at full stack. Idk if using volatily will make up for that without some shenanegans

I think if you invest in extra chaos damage (or debuff like despair) you will still need original sins to make Ice strike into Chaos strike else your damage will be all over the place and very hard to scale.

Feel free to ask anything
