How To Farm Royal Crypts Fast (Monk)

Source: MonkSoryu

So I was getting bored with doing butcher runs to farm up for act 3 (oh boy the hate… uagh). That’s why I decided to do something even more boring, but with a little twist. I want to give you guys a quick look at how I farm the Royal Crypts on inferno difficulty.

Build: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk#acjQ!acb!aZcZ

  • I take all the movement speed I can get (besides dodge aura with speed rune, see next point)
  • I take all the spirit regeneration I can get (first priority)
  • Mystic ally and templar are nice for distracting mobs while logging out.

Gear used:

  • 172% gold find
  • 32 yards pickup
  • 3.37 spirit reg
  • 12% movement speed

This leaves me with:

  • 22% movement speed
  • 8.36 spirit reg (mantra and templar skill)

So what do I do? Well I activate my mantra and run arround like a freaking maniac spinning a wodden stick while crushing things. Because of my high pickup radius I will get all the money without stopping most of the time.

You will quickly learn how to manage your spirit (activating tempest rush costs spirit beside the channeling cost) so that you can roflrun arround with no hold. Even if you run out of energy you can jump with thunderclap and after a few seconds you can tempest rush again.

Don’t forget to loot the corpses and the floor “chests”, as they can give you some nice cash too.

I have only tested this for a few hours (came up with it yesterday) but these are my current numbers: A run takes me arround 1 minute and gives 7-10k gold. This should lead to ~400k per hour. I still need some more testing to find out if this estimation is correct.
