One of the best guides ever. This guide does 1 thing like 90% of other don't. You actually go over the progression of gear. These other guides all just show end game gear and give the middle finger to everyone that doesnt have it. Thank you!
I watched tons of other build videos and solo run videos after having gone through yours which were published quite early but kept coming back to yours as “foundation” for how to think about this game. It still amazes me that lots can be learned after 500 hours. Glad to see another one. Thanks to your guidance, I managed to complete an honor run and am glad to see this Monk build as I haven’t fully used Monk before.
I almost exclusively used your builds for my honor mode run! This build is very similar to the one build I made myself except Ididnt go far enough into monk for resonating strike, which I now see was a mistake. Great build as always!
8/4 can take Alert feat, 6/4/2 with fighter levels has a nova round and 9/3 has better unarmed die and resonance. All are strong, so its a matter of preference.
just wanna say thanks to your build i was able to play this game 4 times now, tried all of them, sometimes even twice. Been only following your builds ever since DOS 2. I really want to do a 5th run so would loooove to see more builds from you!!
NIICEE, the greatest is back with a new build video and the timing is perfect as I just started a new playthrough and started leveling Karlach as OH Monk. To equip her with Phalar Aluve is kinda genius. Thank you and keep up the good work!!! ❤
Perfect...just in time for me to start my second attempt for honor mode (I completely forgot about the orbs of negation with the elder brain and was wiped before i could take her out out on my last turn 😐) I was looking for an alternate build for karlach and this looks great.
The monk is such a fun class. Especially the way of the open hand with the astral tadpole. But even full 12 level monk, without any illithid powers can still be exceptional. Shadow monk was fun to play also for dark urge. I haven’t done 4 elements yet, but intend to.
Would love to see a shadow monk and an assassin build. I think I've gotten most of the optimization from my varrients of them but i always pick up new things from your builds. Both also lean into you style of optimization with a lot of built in utility when set up right.
I like using Nyrulna for some fights for the increased movement and immunity to fall damage. Also Sentinel Shield equipped at start of fight for +initiative, then unequip.
You're joking?!? I was thinking about your guides, since I'm doing an honor mode run using the Ashen Demon. I was thinking if you would ever make another build and, one week later, you release another build... And for a monk, that was just the class I was most interested in trying. Thanks
Amazing builds love all of them, could you make a build like similiar to Katarina(from league of legends) or just any dual sword keep up the amazing work! P.S. your builds on Divinity is what made me finish the game just pure enjoyment!
DUrge is a Wood Elf, plus these: • General: Head 4 • Skin Colour: Warm/Pallid Tone 1 • Piercing: Easy Breezy or Darkmoons • Body Art: Tattoo 29 • Eyes: Flame Red 1 • Makeup: 5 / Black (90/13/13) • Lip Tint: Red 1 (20/20/20) • Hair: Partial Eclipse , Red 4 , Red 1 ( 70 for Highlights) In some of the Act 1 footages, DUrge was the Monk, wearing Karlach starting Torso and Wyll camp Clothing.
I always prefer the reverb/radiant orb set up with Monk. I go 7 Monk to get evasion, 3 rogue (thief), 2 Light Cleric for radiance of the dawn and shield prof/armour prof. Miss out on a feat and not as mobile but AC is much better early and you're not as ability point dependent with armour. I just like running in for radiance of the dawn where need be haha I'd rather have higher AC than mobility early and you get flight for mobility later anyway. You absolutely rack up radiating orb on enemies with the amount you can punch without need for spirit guardians and concentration. This video build obviously melts stuff, but Monk is already such a heavy DPS character I like mixing it up
Hey ! Thank you for yet another build :) will we be seeing more or do you think you are done with this game ? I'd love to see druid maybe. Every time you upload I restart a run (o:
Hey Sin, I'm a big fan. I wonder which four builds of yours you would choose for a balanced party. I guess it would be important for the characters not to fight over key gear.
Love this build. Just started a solo HM Karlach Origin run so will be using this I think. It might not be necessary actually given how many you have already, but on Act 3 headgear if you are going for 1st round Nova damage is Helmet of Grit not just the best option for an additional flurry of blows?
Hello sin tee ithanks for all your builds and mega guides ! Ihave a questen when your real live time at give you time and you mod bg3 mystic glass how would you build her for honour Mode ? Thanks for your content
Hmm another good build, ive been looking at your videos since sorcadin orc lady, tell me out of all of the builds you ever played with, what one is the strongest most op build if you had to choose one ? Im soon starting honor playthrough with my firends and I want to show off
- For a strong, yet straight-foward playstyle and still very effective on Honour Mode, you can use this Monk build or a Berserker Thrower i have one on the channel (Inferno Enforcer). - Both are easy to setup and deal consistently high damage while also being very durable / safe in combat. They also have an easy time shutting down Legendary Actions on Bosses thanks to the reliable Stunning Strike + Flurry of Blows from Monk or Enraged Throw (forced Prone) from Berserker.
I haven’t done the math but savage attacker as the second feat might give more average damage than wisdom asi. edit: I'm stupid, savage attacker doesn't work on unarmed strikes for now
Doesn't khalis amulet explicitly say it adds +1 to widsdom but is capped at 21? How fo you get 22? Cus 19 + mirror = 21 and then khalis would add nothing, right?
Had the same question. Found this in the wiki: "As of patch 6, the +2 ability score bonus granted by the Mirror of Loss can stack on top of the amulet, for a maximum of 23 wisdom. (Note that a wisdom score of 23 provides the same bonuses as a wisdom score of 22.)"
Is there a reason you aren't using graceful cloth in Act 2/Act 1? AC, Jump distance, boost to dex saving throws, and advantage on dexterity checks. Way better than 2 con flat and better than protecty sparkwall IMO.
I will look into the patch note when that happens, if there are any changes that impact the build or break some interactions, i'll mention and add new fixes/alternatives to the pinned comment.
• Yes, they can do unarmed attacks even with weapons in hand by using Monk abilities or any actions that specified using unarmed strikes. e.g: Vest of Soul counterattack ability. • You could technically do it at any levels, because whenever you run out of Ki points to use those abilities, just simply unequip the weapons (unequipping doesn't cost any action) to get the normal unarmed strikes on your main and bonus actions back. Doing so let you enjoy the bonuses on those stat sticks for as long as you have Ki points to spare. • However it would be tedious to play like that, so i didn't mention and only recommended it until later in Act 3, that's when Monk have an abundance of Ki Points and Ki Resonation attacks to comfortably use weapons as stat sticks.
You won't be needing Hag Hair on this build, for every ability boosts the build uses, they're noted in the text box at 03:46 The build could benefit from Hag Hair, but not a must, so you can save it for other builds.

I was almost worried we wouldn't see any more BG3 from you, always happy to see you upload.

Thanks for the great video! The AI voice makes it a lot easier to casually listen to without missing anything important.

Always nice when Sin Tee drops a build!!
I still thank you for the Divinity 2: Honour Mode Guide! 🎉
Yes, Sin Tee's guides are part of the reason I spent so much time on that game. So good.
We're so back.
I almost exclusively used your builds for my honor mode run! This build is very similar to the one build I made myself except Ididnt go far enough into monk for resonating strike, which I now see was a mistake. Great build as always!
Getting fighter action surge is as strong.
8/4 can take Alert feat, 6/4/2 with fighter levels has a nova round and 9/3 has better unarmed die and resonance. All are strong, so its a matter of preference.
Just in time for patch 7 too
So glad to see you're back

let's gooooo, glad you're still making BG3 builds :D
Just yesterday i was looking previous builds. Nice to have a new one!
This is arguably the best Open Hand Monk build I've ever seen. So incredibly detailed and well edited. Great job!

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG!!!!!!!!

He's back!!!!! Let's goooooooooooooo....

Glad to see you return, missed you!
I was looking forward to this

Welcome back, hope everything going ok.

Top G for builds, been following since dos2 days
Your editing and video making is insane!
HOLY SHIT FINALLY! IVE BEEN WANTING THIS FOR SO LONG!!!!
been waiting, you never disappoint

I just started watching your vids again 2 days ago! Great timing
GOD HEARD MY PRAYERS, THE LEGEND IS BACK!!!

Still the best build videos out there
Babe wake up, Sin tee uploaded another build!
I have been praying for this video

What a cool build. Monk is my second favorite class after paladin.
Hello yea bro , your builds always so good .
You and Baldurs_Gate_2 back on the same day
Love your builds! The best builds out there! Could you please do a Necromancer build next :)
A legend makes his return 👑
I like using Nyrulna for some fights for the increased movement and immunity to fall damage.
Also Sentinel Shield equipped at start of fight for +initiative, then unequip.
Does unequipping something not using a action?
@@Ultrabuu85 I believe only equipping an item uses an action
The Return of the King!
The king is back!
Sin, glad you’re back.
Any chance we will see a Druid build?
Goat has returned!
Yo the GOAT is back!
He’s back!

Awesome video as always! Do you use any QoL mods or mods in general for BG3? If yes, I would like to know which ones :)
hope u do bg3 walkthrough soon like u did for dos2
happy to see bg3 builds from you again. but how do you get all the money to buy them? costs a lot in tactic and honor mode….
Fire 🔥🔥🔥
great vid! do u think dw dolor amarus is worth it over dw legendary daggers? or do u have any build with them?

"We're back, at last"
What do you think about this multiclass: monk/rogue/fighter 6/4/2 for 12 attacks total?
Do you plan to do a lockadin build?

Why do u need to get rid of monk weapons after getting tavern brawler? Can't you just have the weapon in ur hand, but still use the topple ability?
Just curious is this an actual person speaking in the videos or an AI voice? Either way great videos
yes, i'm watching sin tee for years and he is shy :D
Is there any better way to allocate ur stats that doesn't require u to use potions to be optimal with tavern brawler or?
You can make unarmed attacks while wearing weapons?
• Yes, they can do unarmed attacks even with weapons in hand by using Monk abilities or any actions that specified using unarmed strikes. e.g: Vest of Soul counterattack ability.

You won't be needing Hag Hair on this build, for every ability boosts the build uses, they're noted in the text box at 03:46
The build could benefit from Hag Hair, but not a must, so you can save it for other builds.
Can you make rogue archer build pls ?
im confused though, is this ment to be a solo character build? because i see you using it solo but you still have party members
Can this build work without spamming strength potions?
Ilsan AL-Gaib!
I'm so confused on how to trigger the sneak attack with an unarmed strike 😭
Bg3 is great but i miss the combat system of Divinity2
could you please make build with mod unlock level 20, i think lot of people use that mod
hi, can this monk work as main character?
