I was testing out a 55 monk build in Bergen today and I don't seem to be getting the hang of it.

I'm using Totem axe/grim cesta

My point spread is Mo/D
12 smite
11 prot
13 divine favor
9 earth prayers

I'm using

Prot Bond| Mystic Regen| SoA| Shielding Hands| SoJ| Blessed Aura| Essence Bond| Balthazar's Spirit

I can kill all the rangers in the beginning, and the ones over with the bowmaster, but I'm only killing rangers, and the run doesn't seem to be taking as long as most people take it seems.

Some things just take time. The more you practice the faster the run will get and mystic regen isnt really necessary, my build just uses healing breeze and more points in smiting for SoJ, which does speed up the run

No, you're not. Protective Spirit. Are you playing in hard mode? You have a few redundant skills in your build you can replace with more damage.

You also only need 8 Earth Prayers to maximize the effectiveness from Mystic Regen. Drop Shielding Hands and add Judge's Intervention or a PvE only skill for damage like Pain Inverter, Sniper Support, or Radiation Ward.

Several questions -
1. Normal or hardmode ?
2. Attributes seem way wrong
3. have you done the attribute quests to gain the 2 +15 points ?

It looks like a varient of the hm corsair 55 build from pvx wiki .
Owok4wPI0tiD7tecXNIrEAi+QeA.
as far as i recall 55 needs 5x sup runes
Monk / Dervish
12 Smiting Prayers
8 Protection Prayers
7 Divine Favor
8 Earth Prayers
plus the extra runes shud make
16 smite ( you need to do max dmg )
11 prot
3 healing and 10 divine.

Personally id drop essence bond ( doesnt work with shielding hands ) and add smite condition ( if you have eotn ) or a different smite skill. Smite condition if great for farming undead as you can normally get conditions continually so its a gd dmg aoe spike - or even use light of deldrimore.
