Lost my Human Shintao Build :P

[Osco]

Well, I started back on my light monk after 3 weeks off, got to level 7, and can't find the build I was following. I was certain that I had bookmarked it, but apparently not. After looking for a thread that looked familiar for an hour and a half, I've given up. :P If anyone can help with advice or a link, I'd greatly appreciate it. I mainly solo. This is my first toon on the server, so there's no awesome gear or big bank balance. Stats at level 7 are 16/20/12/8/18/8, and I've been putting my level-ups into WIS, and just took Shintao I. Right now I have Eternal Rest wraps and working on the Mabar wraps and Cloak of Night for level 12.

EDIT: I copied these down when in a stance. :P The correct numbers are 14/17/14/16(+1)/8 at level 7.

Rockan Robin is dark, he said shintao.

Yup, I've read most of the "popular" builds, but they're either dark or using multiple TRs and tomes or both. I've been looking over my combat technique, and I see that there's room for improvement. Right now, my first hotbar is:

1=finisher
2=Fists of Light
3=Heal pots
4=Air strike
5=Earth strike
6=Fire strike
7=Water strike
8= Sunder
9=Stunning fist
0= Smite Tainted Creature

I'm noticing that I never use Sunder or Stunning fist any more, so I'm going to rearrange things so that they're in front and get a better default chain going.

[SensaiRyu]

I have a few shintao on my sig.

Post U11 I may rearrange some feats to get improved sunder.

Quickbar suggestions are on some of the links.

I'm a big fan of Void IV. If you try it out, you'll be very happy.

Hi Sensai, I read your threads, but it didn't feel like I could follow it much without the past life feats and such. Perhaps I am just unsure how to modify it. I read that thread about Improved Sunder too, and would like to implement that. I'm going to download the character planner today and take a stab at planning an entire build, and post it for feedback.

With your stats you can't get Void IV. 16 in str/dex/con/wis and 18 in one of them are requirements. At lvl 7 your 12 con is way to low. But since I've run a PUG with a lvl 15+ barb with only 10 con you could do worse

Did you get your Endless Wraps? I got the Epic pair during this event - they rock! Seeing the +400 dmg pop up fighting the Judge yesterday was heartwarming - proc rate is 2%. So, 6 chances at instakill/stun/tomb 5% of the time and at the same time a 2% chance to probably do enuf dmg to kill the target with light damage... You'll enjoy them.

And the with the cape I finally have a DW item (I turned my Silver Flame trinket into a Nightshield clickie).

I mis-copied my stats in the post above. I was in Wind stance. The correct numbers are 14/17/14/8/17/8 at level 7. I'm putting all level-ups in Wis. I pushed my Mabar cloak to level 12 and the wraps to level 16. I wanted that DW too! I'm running Eternal Rest for undead, and generic +2 for others. I *did* get my first jade tomb using Smite Tainted today on a spectre in Mabar. I was like "oooh, so *that's* what it looks like!"

I think I'm done with Mabar this year. I need to get back to leveling and regular content. Between Mabar, Catacombs, and Delera's Tomb, it's been a long time since I've punched something that bled!
