Your resists are much too low, or, your dps is too low. You're kinda stuck in no mans land of low dps and low resist. I think you've sacrificed too much for the discs regen, which is highly unneeded due to how easy Inferno is now. I run 3 set and I still have 550 phys res and 480 all res still. If you're going to run 4 set Natayla, you need high dps because once you've run out of disc, most people don't have enough survivability to survive without any disc. I honestly think glass cannon with 300 res all is more viable now, because mobs barely hit for anything and Shadow Power Gloom + 4 set nats should keep you long enough to burst down mobs before you run out of disc.
I think Prep/4 set Nat fills out the same purpose basically.
Yeah you'd think prep and 4 set nats fills out the same purpose, but I found myself using it a decent amount. I'm still thinking about switching up some of those skills. They're really exactly the same as before I found the Nat's ring and made the switch.
I'm thinking I might be able to keep the nat's, but I definitely need to load up the rest of my equipment with all res and vit.
Quite a few things going on here. However I'll start with asking what your HP is. Also, why are you running in SS (which you say you can stay in perminantly) and then running gloom?
There's quite a bit of difference then getting through inferno and farming it effectively. Personally I think the 3-piece set is where it's at. You give up far too much when you throw the last piece. I say that with an emphasis on the boots being the last piece which I think is the most detrimental of all the pieces.
My life is only at like 28k, so I know that's one of the problems. Problem is that indefinite SS doesn't actually mean indefinite. There's a little patch of time where you can't hit the button again, so I often get hit by something that I can't see very well, like a javelin or one of those quills or something. That happens quite often, and my pot timer will be running down, so I was using gloom. Really I was thinking of ditching it for something else, though.
I'm still kind of feeling out the build and the play style with Nat's. While doing the keep I was doing pretty well. We didn't have a dedicated tank, really, but I was surviving pretty well. Near the end I was only brainlessly dying about once per elite pack or so. But then me and my whirlwind barb friend were playing through the part with the catapults in act 3 and I was just getting annihilated. I think it might just be that part of the game. Too much shit to try and keep track of, and he was trying to gather up as many mobs as possible to keep his whirlwind going, so it may have been a really bad combination there, too.
Maybe 3 pieces is good, but really is it worth the 40 million for that ring if I'm only going to run with 3 pieces? I would think I could gear up quite well with that money to where I wouldn't even miss the 3 pieces at all.
And yeah, I know there's a difference between getting through and farming. My monk is at the point where I can effectively farm Act 3 for the most part. Some affixes give me a few deaths, but otherwise I can pound through and rack up the elite kills now. I've beat Diablo with him multiple times.
It's just fairly odd to me that my dps for my monk is so much lower than my DH, yet I kill things much faster on my monk. I guess builds will do that (and I guess conviction helps with that too lol).
