And about the post before that, yes Monk's can out heal most damage... but not when multiple enemies create a sustained attack on him/her. And even then, eventually the energy will run out...
If it takes multiple classes to beat a monk then that means a class is overpowered.

Yes they are anti casters but in 8v8 a bs super warrior/monk will come for you first. Plus if you are the only mesmer in your group vs 4 - 5 monks how are you suppose to do your job.

I'm only half way through the game, so I haven't seen all the skills and I really can't comment as to how 'insane' a Monk's healing abilities are. I can say this though, this game has been widely compared to Magic: The Gathering. And in much the same way, for every deck build imaginable there is a counter build waiting to be discovered. The balance in this game is truely remarkable.

And taking the easy way out = cheating and cheating = bannable.
You're joking right?

iam not joking, i personally hate monks. Yes necros can heal them selves but do damage at the same time but i feel bad for necros because every one i speak too says necro ssuck and half the time are not wanted in groups.

Yes rangers have urgent but they only have urgent. Warriors have heal signet but thats just a weak heal till a bs monk comes.

Talk about stratigie? The group with the monk will always win.

Ok say if you had a group with no monks vs a group with 2 monks. Since this game is sooo balanced can a group with no monks beat a group with 2 monks?

Yes a group with no monks can beat a group with monks. However you would be foolish to go into a fight with no monks knowing the other team will likely have at least one. Its like... bringing a blaster to a lightsaber duel.

Edit: To follow up on the balance issue. The game itself is balanced, doesn't mean two teams facing each other will be. Afterall, if two teams were always equally balanced it would be a fight that could potentially never end.

Thank you. The game is balanced. Monks seem good because anyone can pick it up and play with even mediocre skills. Playing a mesmer, necromancer, or ranger well is much harder by comparison.

Every single MMO or RPG game has had a some kind of a healer class. Monks belong in GW.
examples of the healer names are
Priest, , Healer, Nature Mage that carries healing spells(Dungeon Siege), Medic, etc

they're everywhere!
only in D2 there isn't a healing class since the potions were cheap and overpowered.

It doesn't have to be a healer class, but you do need a healing system. Don't talk trash (cheap and overpowered) about Diablo just because the healing system they chose were potions that were self administered. Not to mention the fact that Diablo was more single player than not...

Wow this thread has been dragged through the muck. I personally am hoping for a lock, possibly a delete, so it poses no further health hazards.

At first I thought he was joking around. But then I realized the sad truth

Someone needs to stop doing 1vs1 fighting in guild wars.

"I played nothing but barbarians in diablo2 classic. I want the same power for my warrior in guild wars, and it isn't happening. I blame it on those monks. I want anet to nerf the monks so that my warrior can kill all. Thank you. Signed death knight dunn."

... well if your the only monk vs. 4-5 any other class, how are you suppose to do you job? Actually, if you the only anything vs. anything, how are you suppose to do your job? Initially you keep saying that your warrior can't beat a monk, and many suggested strategies you could try. Now your saying that if there's a lot of monks, you can't beat them. If you're going up against 4 monks, what are the 3 other people in your group doing?

Some would argue that using a warrior is "taking the easy way out".
