I've seen guides that contradict each other on which is more useful. I've mostly seen people say that life per hit is more useful though. What do you guys think?

Also, what are the other most important stats for a monk? Right now I'm just trying to focus on life per hit, dex, armor, and cold resistance/resist all.

Um, I think that depends on how fast you hit. Stealing 600 life on hit if you hit twice in a second is better than something that adds 1k life per second, isn't it?

Life on hit is better unless you are not hitting anything

Doesn't life per hit work for each mob you hit? So if you have 100 life per hit and hit 10 mobs with crippling wave, it's 1000 life per hit? So it's not as easy as just adding up the numbers. I just want to know what people have found more useful in their experience.

Thanks for the input. What about the other stats? Is there something important that I'm missing?

i have been using Crippling wave with 130 life on hit. when i am surrounded its great, Life all day. but when its a tank mob, its not so hot. as i am entering Inferno, i see that i will need more life regen since i cant fight hard-hitters till i get better armors or tweak my runes for more dodge, currently at 50%
