With the 0.2.0 patch nerfs hitting hard—removing legacy gear and gutting HoWa—this Monk build has been reworked from the ground up to stay powerful and smooth without relying on outdated items. This version is fully tested in Standard League under Dawn of the Hunt conditions:

No HoWa,
Ingenuity disabled,
Breach rings capped at 40%.

⚔️ What’s New in This Version?
✅ 2.5 Million DPS with 95% Crit Chance
✅ No reliance on legacy gear
✅ Now using Cast on Freeze to trigger big bursts of AoE damage
✅ Swapped out Grim Feast for Ghost Dance for smoother sustain and survivability
✅ Fully compatible with the Dawn of the Hunt league

💥 This version keeps the explosive feel of Monk gameplay but adapts for the new meta by focusing on freeze chains, evasion-based defence, and consistent crit uptime. It’s leaner, more tactical, and ready for league start conditions.

📚 In this video:
