Firstly, big shoutout to Larry and Pain for the crafting advice and crafts!

Monk Build 4.0 is live — this is my high DPS / high Energy Shield setup built for ultimate survivability while still feeling fast and smooth. The big win here is that the build fixes mana issues completely, so you can stay aggressive instead of getting stuck in “no resource = no damage” limbo.

In this guide I break down everything you need to copy the build and understand why it works:

✅ What this build does High damage for clearing and bossing Massive Energy Shield so you can take hits and keep moving No mana issues (consistent skill use, no awkward downtime) Built to feel safe in endgame content while still keeping the pace up
