Trinity - Monk Class

I'm not sure if it's me or some faulty code not working properly but..

My monk is using Tempest Rush like a braindead person.. Imagine that skillbutton Tempest Rush. The way you want the bot to use it is that it clicks the button and runs around the monsters holding it down.

The way my bot does it is - Click - Click - Click - Click -Click - Click - Click until i eventually run out of spirit making it horrible.

I've seen some people with this issues earlier in the thread but quite far back but i can't see any solution to it?
 
Is there anyway to alter the item scoring systems to better work with monks? Monk armor is generally worse when it has resist all on it because then it can't have a 2ndary resist witch rolls higher and obviously doesn't take a primary attribute. I would just like to lower the value on the resist all attribute and up (by a metric fuckton) the value of poison resist. I'm sure this has been brought up before but I can't find anything. Thank you to anyone who could assist with this. I'm very tired of my box being filled with only resist all items due to it's converted item value.
 
Anyone running Monks on their bot?
Seems like this thread is more or less dead, and there is no new information regarding monks.
I am lookin for basic builds, what spells work and what Do Not. Can anyone give me a quick rundown?
 
most things work. what spec u got. what u wanna run? what profile? what can u handle. if u want help, give infos.
 
i run a monk p450. you basically build your build with your gear -----like fire or light element. most of my items rolled lighting so I went with that and built my skill slot around it. my monk is well geared and pushes t3 just fine.
 
i was just using the bot to level the monk from 60-70 last night, so that i can actually start gearing him out again. A few things had changed like some of my previous spells disappearing.

@LivingTree: since i just leveled him, i had No specific spec in mind. this is why i was asking what other ppl run with, to get ideas what works particularly well with the bot, and what is just So So.
Yeah i realize Most Things will work, the bot has come a long way, and can pull just about anything off, but that doesnt mean they work effectively and efficiently.

For example Wizard:Meteor... The Bot casts meteor often, uses it to pull mobs well. HOWEVER... I run a melee lightning build, so i typically have as many monsters directly in front of me as possible. The bot will throw meteors at random single targets nearby instead of the 15 monsters standing on top of eachother directly in front of me...
This Changes what should be a 3second conflict, into 8-10seconds. which over the course of a few hours, thousands of conflicts, this is a major problem (not to mention the stun lock potential being missed out on because of the inability to aim correctly)
The same thing happens with Black Hole on wizards.

I noticed my monk bot was really Not using Cyclone Strike well, same sort of issues. So in attempt to avoid hours of watching, and tinkering/testing out different spells to see what Really works, I came here to ask those who are more familiar with the Bot with Monks.

I am currently only running 1 profile, an Adventure Bounty Profile in A4, because it is the Most AFK'able profile (i work 10-12 hours a day, botting while im away) until The rest of the acts are finetuned, and Rifts are more AFKable.

@Taskmanager: Sweet! i figured as much with the focusing on a single Element. I level'd with fire last night, and it seems to do just fine but its pretty cut n dry. High dmg, some decent AoE, but I didnt find any interesting synergies or spell combos that really set it apart, nor is there much for CC with the fire.

Current build: Crippling Wave: Mangle, Sweeping Wind: Fire Storm, Epiphany, Lashing Tail Kick: Spinning Flame, Exploding Palm: Essence Burn, and Mantra of Ret.

like i said, it does OK... but its just not smart enough to take advantage of the Exploding Palm passive, or Lashing Tail Kick. So there is room for improvement with other spells.

How do the lightning spells treat you?

P.S. Taskmanager, what do you mean by p450?

As said, my Monk isn't using cyclone strike at all. Would be nice to suck all the mobs in, while using lashing tail kick, but it doesn't use it. Even when the number of trash is set down to 1. Just never uses it.
