As we all know, the endgame in POE 2 is not easy. Therefore, if players want to complete the tasks in this part of the game content well, it is recommended to choose the best combination from the build of their own character as much as possible to challenge the game.
If the class you choose in POE 2 is Monk, then this article will tell you how to create a better build for this class to help you kill all sides in the endgame!
But fortunately, there are many ways to play Monk. Although players can choose a variety of ways to match and combine, such as choosing Cold or Lightning damage attributes, Quarterstaves or Bare-hands, and Acolyte of Chayula or Invoker, if you want to build a powerful Monk as much as possible, the following will introduce it for your reference.
The Best Weapon
If you have been using this class, you must know that you can choose no weapons and equipment in it, and you can cause certain damage to the enemy by relying on the bare-handed build. But if you want to impact the endgame, it is better to have Quarterstaves weapons.
Because this weapon can help players increase the character’s advantageous attributes, such as Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, critical hit chance, and elemental or physical damage. Due to the special nature of this character, you can also increase the evasion skill to better avoid enemy attacks.
The best equipment among them may be Collapsing Horizon Wyrm Quarterstaff. Players can obtain it by farming bosses and rare monsters or exchanging it on Exchange through POE 2 Currency.
This is a very powerful weapon that players need to reach level 65 to unlock. After obtaining it, you can help you slightly increase critical damage, automatically increase the level of all spells, and reach 100% elemental damage.
Best Defensive Equipment
Although Monks cannot use heavy equipment armor at present, players can find another way to choose POE 2 items with robes or garb armor in the endgame.
In addition, players need to focus on finding equipment that can enhance the character’s attributes such as Strength, Intelligence, Dexterity, elemental and critical hit chance. For example, Atsak’s Sight Veiled Mask not only enhances the above attributes but also poisons the enemy when you cast a critical skill. This is a double-edged weapon.
Enhanced Active Skills
Tempest Bell Skill
This skill is a skill that can be obtained very early in Monk class. It only requires you to have a level 3 Gem, 10 Dexterity and Intelligence, and the character reaches level 6.
And players can achieve the melting pot equipment that melts monsters and bosses in the later stage by enhancing its damage skills. Because after the skill is cast, a huge bell will be summoned on the battlefield. If you want to hit it with an attack, it will send out a shock wave.
Therefore, in actual combat, you can put it next to the enemy and attack it at the same time, so you can cause a lot of damage to the enemy in a very short time.
Gathering Storm Skill
This skill requires players to have a level 13 Uncut Skill Gem, 66 Dex and Int, and reach a level 52 Monk. It is also one of the highest-level skills you can unlock in Monk class. Although it takes a while to unlock this skill, it is worth it.
The feature of this skill is that it allows the character to do a backflip to keep a certain distance from the enemy and facilitate retreat, and it also gives him the power of the staff. He can fall to the ground first and then rush back to the combat area to deal lightning damage to the enemy.
But it is worth noting that this skill must be paired with a quarterstaff weapon to work, and you can enhance this equipment effect with Exalted Orbs POE 2. In addition, this skill will only work best when the player uses it at a very precise time.
Because it will have a lightning shock wave around the area where the skill is cast, and the ground will remain in a state of electric shock for a certain period of time, so that enemies will be damaged when they walk into this area. Therefore, this skill is very suitable for crowd control in team battles.
Passive Skill Points Allocation
As we all know, in POE 2, players will get a skill point after each level up. For Monk, it is best to start from the top right of the skill tree. Because you can upgrade passive skills related to Int or Dex in that location area. When you browse the entire skill tree, you need to pay attention to Critical Exploit skill that allows the character to gain an additional 25% critical hit chance and upgrade it.
In addition, you can also find the skill points that need to be upgraded more quickly through the search function in skill tree. For example, Deadly Force and Moment Of Truth skills that can increase the critical hit chance.
And because this class needs to rely on mana to cast elemental skills, players can also choose Flow State to help increase mana recovery speed and skill speed so that they can attack enemies faster.
In actual combat, players will always encounter opponents who resist Lightning, and if your overall build happens to be inclined to Lightning damage, you need to add an Overload skill point. Because this skill can reduce the enemy’s ability to resist your Lightning damage by 15%. Of course, in addition to Overload, Surging Currents with 10 points of Dexterity can also achieve the same effect.
In addition, if your build is Cold, then Storm Swell and Storm Surge are the best builds with similar effects that can be chosen under this attribute.
Invoker Is More Suitable For Endgame
Acolyte of Chayula and Invoker are both subclasses of Monk. However, the former is better at using Mana Leech to convert output damage into input mana. This mechanism is relatively useless in endgame.
Therefore, it is more recommended that players choose Invoker. Because it is a completely elemental subclass. It mainly enhances Monk’s Cold and Lightning damage. When players cast I Am Blizzard and I Am Thunder skills, they will cause shock and cold effects to the ground within a certain area. These skill enhancements make this subclass the only choice to complete Monk class in endgame.
In short, players can choose to become an Invoker with quarterstaff and shockwave when they build a Monk class in endgame, or choose one of the damage attributes and dig deep to improve the skills to reach a higher strength.
