Increase your Dodge as You Increase Critical Hit! Monk Sixth Sense
Monk Sixth Sense is a passive skill that unlocks at level 24.
Sixth Sense increases the Monk’s dodge chance by 30% of their critical hit chance. This is a good passive for the speed-type Monk who wants to dodge attacks better.
This is also a good alternative to The Guardian’s Path, which only gives the bonus if the Monk decides to dual-wield weapons. Monks who prefer to use other weapon combinations can otherwise get their dodge chance bonus from Sixth Sense.
However, if the Monk prefers to dual-wield anyway then Sixth Sense is still a good passive to pair with The Guardian’s Path for a higher dodge chance.

In order to use this passive effectively the Diablo 3 Monk should have high critical hit chance. Thus, this skill is more beneficial to the higher level monk who already has a higher chance to land critical blows.
The beginning or mid-level Monk should stick to other dodge increasing skills and runes because they may not have a high enough critical hit chance for Sixth Sense to be efficient at this time.
Complementary Skills:
For the higher level Monk who want increased survivability, Sixth Sense can be used with other skills to make them much harder to kill.
Mantra of Evasion – Hard Target - This Mantra gives the monk a 15% chance to dodge attacks for three minutes, as well as another 15% chance for three seconds after activation. The Hard Target rune causes the Mantra to also increase the monk’s armor by 20%.
Seize the Initiative - This passive skill increases the monk’s armor by 100% of their dexterity. This is also a skill that is more effective in the late game because the monk would have had a better chance of building up enough dexterity by then. Because this passive relies on dexterity it is a good pair with Sixth Sense for speed-type monks.
