my advice? Sell the gold on rmah or keep it until pvp patch
ah prices are hideous atm, and really, inferno is doable with like 600 dps weapons =P
-edit, if you really did want 1 handers, a rare with the affixes 50% increased damage and 300-400 elemental damage would get you the high end dps, then assuming you didn't want survivability 350 dex ~100 vit (vit needed for dual dex roll, could be strength int etc) and then say 100 crit damage and a socket; that'd be best in slot (or very close to it) and of course near impossible to find
Slow yes, With skorn its best to have as much IAS as possible. Innas pants and IAS, crit rings and gloves. SW will hit with much greater damage and spenders like SSS or WOL will destroy everything, since they scale with weapondamage. 2-handed weapons have lots of damage, and slow weapons even more.
which mean i need to change my spec into SSS and WoL
Dmg with skorn or any other high dmg 2h is realy sick but the spirit regen is just meh even with guardians path. I looted a skorn(1,3k ish with +300 dex/83crit dmg and socket) a few days ago. Even with 24% ias on gear it just felt so slow. I switched back to dw and sold the skorn on the ah. In terms of dmg skorn was great and better then my 1handers but i didnt like the playstyle/feeling.
If u wanne dw get a high dps mainhand +1,1k dps and a good offhand for the stats. Atm im using a 1,1k axe with 240 dex and open socket and an axe with attackspeed and ~750 dps(like 100 dex, crit dmg 75, open socket and 570 loh). I try to get my hands on a better offhand(faster+more dex and crit dmg with loh and open socket). Nothing changed with patch 1.04 in terms of dw and weapons.
thank for sharing
this could save me some Gold not to buy 2h, i have never liked slow atk anyway
Disregarding cost as a factor, an 1100+ dps, 1.2 speed (mace/spear) weapon with crit damage, dex, and a socket in your mainhand with a 900+ dps Won Khim Lau with Dex, 20%+ lightning skill damage, crit damage, and a socket in your offhand.
This is assuming the cookie cutter thunderclap/cyclone build with 30%+ crit chance.
Also, don't forget that a monk's true dps is several magnitudes higher than the ingame statsheet or any current spreadsheet due to the cyclones, especially with a high rolled won khim lau. A 40% crit chance monk can put out several hundred thousand DPS in an area around him quite easily once cyclone really starts to roll. Especially if you're running overawe and/or faith in the light.
one of em for sure. I took a stat sheet damage loss of about 7k going to my super cheap 1.3m won's (845 dps, 22% lightning skill damage, single dex roll, no crit damage/socket) yet i can repeatedly kill siegebreaker a good 10+ seconds faster over my other weapon with crit damage and a socket. A good 900+ dps won's w/ crit damage socket would be amazing but I can't afford it.
Didn't you see his dps? Over 70k unbuffed PLUS WKL "hidden" bonus and that's with 400 weapon dps difference. But i'm not sure about MoE, that's a huge loss there over MoC, 24% less damage dealt. It's not champions i'm worried about, it's eating 3 fireballs or 6 spears from the second row, behind the champions, at once.
Instead of further increasing dps i'd just get some shoulders with single resist but high vita + % life and a chest with 200+ vita and 3 sockets + single resist for now, maybe even replace all gems - allowing you to use a ruby in your helmet, farming Paragon exp ~ 11% faster while having some leeway for errors.
im compelety broke atm to buy anything haha, but thank you for your advise
i have alway wanted more HP but ya, putting a ruby into my helm would DEF help alot ,leveling my paragon lvl.
oh and now i use MoC, i drop elites even faster in less than 10sec haha
Yeah but WKL limits you to FoT as generator and Cyclone, otherwise it's not a great choice. Echoing Fury is probably the best 1h damage wise, provided you get that crit + socket roll (even with only one of those it's still great). Only the fear on hit is annoying.
@Obe
Any SW/Cyclone build will probably work better with fast weapons. I got rid of SW altogether, although I could see myself running with SW/Master of the Wind... cast it buffed with Blinding Flash, never falls off, so you don't have to allocate spirit for it, and does sick damage because it's based on 2h.
But i think my WKL is doing a great job here, although the dps is low. however
the increaing 20% lighting skill dmg is huge and mine has perfect CD roll on it + a socket.
*** right now i could kill any bosses within 20sec and any elites pack in less than 10sec

Based on your post, I did some testing. I compared these weapons (only including relevant dps stats):
Weapon 1 (my normal offhand): 766 dps 1.50 dagger, 140 dex, 86% crit dmg
Weapon 2 (a very cheap WKL bought for 120k, used in offhand): 658 dps, 1.40 fist, 150 dex, 62% crit dmg, +5% lightning dmg, +24% dmg to lightning skills
Against Ghom Inferno:
Weapon 1: average kill time 37s, 7s spread
Weapon 2: average kill time 33.2s, 13s spread
Weapon 2 seems superior, but Ghom is a rather RNG based fight (as you can see on the big spread). I next went to Siegebreaker Inferno:
Weapon 1: average kill time 33.5s, 5s spread
Weapon 2: average kill time 26s, 6s spread
Again weapon 2 takes the win, by a large margin.
So basically this "crappy" 120k WKL is increasing my dmg output by 10-20%. I can't wait to see what a good WKL will do. Oh and for reference, the WLK decreases my character spreadsheet dps by 5k. As another sidenote, I managed to pick up a legendary on one of the Ghom kill tests.

Just check the AH daily and look for a decent WKL
25% lighting skill increase +60% CD + socket that would be freaking awesome
*like really i could just equip a 9xx weapon with 190%+ CD and increase my dps up to 100k but with WKL only 80k unbuff

2x 1H with 190%+ Crit Dmg / 2H / Shenlong's Set / 1H + Legendaries?
Much Appreciate Help

here is my profile
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/FCWGAMING-1360/hero/7043476

i could do act 3 just fine, i have a LoH weapon in my inventory if they have reflect dmg. Also i drop elite quite fast
thank for sharing
this could save me some Gold not to buy 2h, i have never liked slow atk anyway
Gonna look for 2x good 1H
The weapon is not bad at all, its add the attack speed onto your OH as well.
I have finally bought a set of weapons for myself and im happy about it. kill stuff so much faster now
