    WoL monk: Sunwuko vs LoD comparison (s22 and non-season)

    Posted: 04 Feb 2021 02:49 PM PST

    I did a comparison to help me pick a build. Let me know if you disagree with any of my choices.

    Sunwuko https://maxroll.gg/d3planner/672463121
    LoD https://maxroll.gg/d3planner/572104619

    First item-by-item assuming perfect rolls, Sunwuko vs LoD, then we'll aggregate:

    • Abilities: see links but the only difference is Sweeping Wind - Inner Storm vs Cyclone Strike - Implosion

      • Inner Storm gets us 8 spirit per sec besides interactions with other effects
      • Cyclone Strike gathers enemies, though also forces us to cast it for Bindings & Lefebvre effects even when we don't need to gather dudes
    • Head: Tzo Krin's Gaze on both

    • Shoulder: Sunwuko vs Lefebvre

      • 38625 globe healing vs 0.5x dmg mitigation
    • Chest: Sunwuko & cubed Cinder vs Cinder

      • 11% elite dmg reduction & 7% missile dmg reduction vs 20% fire dmg
    • Gloves: Sunwuko vs Magefist

      • 2 pickup radius vs 20% fire dmg
    • Pants: Sunwuko vs Swamp

      • 2 pickup radius vs 20% fire dmg
    • Boots: Crimson vs Crudest

      • 38625 globe healing vs +4 spirit per sec & +100 spirit per Ally cast
    • Belt: Crimson vs Witching Hour

      • 15% life & 516 armor vs 7% ias & 50% crit dmg
    • Bracer: Pinto vs Pinto & cubed Bindings

      • N/A vs 2x dmg
    • Amulet: Sunwuko vs FoT

      • 210 physical resist vs 8% CDR & 2x pylon duration
    • Rings: CoE & Unity & cubed RoRG vs CoE & Unity & cubed Zodiac

      • N/A vs Zodiac's CDR
    • Weapons: Kyoshiro & Vengeful Wind & cubed Torch & cubed Rabid Strike vs Kyoshiro & Rabid Strike & cubed Torch & cubed Flying Dragon

      • 1.05x dmg (10% on one weapon) vs 35% crit dmg & Flying Dragon ias (2x when active)
    • Legendary gems: Stricken and Trapped for both, Zei vs LoD

      • Zei: at >40 yds (it's rounded up to 50 apparently), +60% dmg at rank 100 / +80% at 150. +36% / +48% at 20-30 yds, etc. 20% chance to stun 1 sec.
      • LoD: 98.5x dmg, 0.48x mitigation
    • Sunwuko and Crimson set bonuses: 0.5x mitigation, taunting decoys, 196x dmg, 6000 lps, 20% CDR, 20% RCR, 1.6545x dmg (from CDR), 0.662x mitigation (from RCR)

    Aggregation

    First let's put the differences into a few items.

    Sunwuko:

    • 1.73x dmg plus Zei
    • 11% elite dmg reduction, 7% missile dmg reduction, 516 armor, 210 physical resist, 15% life
    • 13% CDR (since 20% = 8% + 13%), 20% RCR, 4 spirit / sec, 6000 lps, 4 pickup radius, 77250 globe healing
    • Zei stun, taunting decoys

    LoD:

    • 0.73x dmg mitigation (i.e. for every 100 dmg Sunwuko takes, LoD takes 73)
    • 60% fire dmg, 85% crit dmg, 7% ias, Flying Dragon ias
    • 100 spirit per Ally cast (11.9 sec CD), Zodiac CDR
    • 2x pylon duration, Cyclone Strike

    Some of these can easily be aggregated further; for example, the +60% fire dmg is worth a factor 2/1.4. We'll consider Zei at both +40% and +80%. Flying Dragon apparently has 5-10 sec duration and "around 4%" chance; I simulated this and found that it's effectively an attack speed multiplier of ~1.525. I assume elite dmg reduction is 2/3 as good as all dmg reduction, and melee and missile are equally important.

    • DPS: Sunwuko 1.01x with half Zei, 1.30x with full Zei
      • Dmg: Sunwuko 1.64x with half Zei, 2.11x with full Zei
      • APS: LoD 1.61x
      • Generous assumptions for LoD: assume constantly attacking => more effective Flying Dragon (move while buff active => less effective); assume all enemies hit by Rabid clone have been Cyclone Struck in the last 5 sec (for the bracer buff); these things matter less the longer fights are
      • Doesn't account for LoD losing WoL's due to having to use Cyclone Strike
    • Toughness: LoD 1.04x
      • Mitigation: LoD 0.87x (contributes 1.15x to toughness)
      • Hp: Sunwuko 1.11x
    • CDR: LoD Zodiac vs Sunwuko 13%
    • Resources:
      • Sunwuko: 4 spirit / sec and 20% RCR
      • LoD: requires ~61% more but gets 10 spirit per Ally cast (CD 11.9 sec but reduced by Zodiac)
    • Misc:
      • Sunwuko: Zei stun, taunting decoys, 6000 lps, 4 pickup radius, 77250 globe healing
      • LoD: 2x pylon duration, Cyclone Strike grouping up effect

    Non-season: Sunwuko loses 2x dmg from Rabid; LoD loses 1.525x APS (but is correspondingly less resource-intense). The DPS comparison becomes 0.77x with half Zei and 0.99x with full Zei.

    EDIT: I forgot about the 30% IAS from the passive when you attack an enemy with 75%+ hp. Idk how best to account for it so I'll just repeat all the numbers with this baked in. Flying Dragon turns into a 1.61x multiplier, and the total APS multiplier for LoD turns into 1.74x, and the DPS comparison for Sunwuko turns into 0.94x with half Zei, 1.21x with full Zei. Non-season, the DPS comparison becomes 0.76x with half Zei and 0.98x with full Zei.

    For Diablo 4, Unique items shouldnt be alterable unless you risk the item in the process

    Posted: 04 Feb 2021 01:16 PM PST

    I like the idea of Corrupting items in POE

    But i hate the fact you can reroll its mods with Divine orbs

    Unique items shouldnt be modifiable unless you are Hardcore gambling it, All in

    Thats a concept i really really enjoy the implementation of in Path of Diablo and Project Diablo 2

    Giving Away My Seasonal Gear

    Posted: 04 Feb 2021 03:10 AM PST

    Once this season is over I want to give away all the gear I got, my off season DH and crusader are fully geared and I have no space for dupes.

    So if you want all 5 sets and assorted items (including legendary gems) for demon hunter and crusader let me know and as soon as the season ends I'll send it you in the in game mail system or you can jump into a game and I'll drop it to you.

    First come first served.

    This is on xbox one.
