The ones you names are pretty much correct. (Star did ALOT of Monking for his fame, and he still is a VERY good prot Monk)

Water Mesmer camps Warriors with blurred/glyph+steam/shackles/shard
Dom Mesmer sits on Fire ele
Ranger sits on other Ranger to interrupt preps and pin down wars
Full earth ele with unsteady and eruption
Fire ele snares with foes/grasping or spams make haste on recharge
Rit with warding spams warding on 1 monk at all times regardless of damage taken and poops life/recup + pots + spikes on 1

It just blows my RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing mind that the guy who does this for a living can't see the problems with this game where myself as a recreational player of the same game could go on all day about how pathetic the last 3 years of 'balance' have been nothing short of bongobad.

There are no good HA monks unless they GvG (maybe TA, but its tends to be alot of monkstomp) and only HA part-time.

I believe euphoric joined casual love when bill was grabbing random high-ranked HA people to temorarily boost activity until there were more gvg'ers, they were absolutely terrible however and he kicked them all, euphoric included. It was a long time ago however, my memory might be a bit foggy.

This is the HA section so lets break it down:
A good monk = ?
A good monk = keeping people alive
Keeping people alive in competitive PvP (gvg) = pre-protting and team coordination

The word "Clusterf*ck" ceases to be adequate for HA, you cant pre-prot a clusterf*ck.

Coordination in HA? You do 3 things. 1. Spike (hey I can count down from 3!) 2. kill the other team 3. cap altars/run relics etc. this may have been Anet's attempt at team-play in HA, however it turns out into a f*cked up confusing zergrush every 95% of the time, generally if you try to coordinate the opposing teams lack of coordination causes chaos on your team as well.

So via that since HA =/= pre-protting and HA =/= coordination that:

HA =/= Good Monks

Perhaps the topic should be "who are the least awful HA monks?"


And even after all this, winning HA meta is and will probably always be (unless a massive reformat) a 8v8 slugfest, the only chance a team has to not fall apart is to bring a billion monks or against a spike team/balanced if you have a good spike-catch. Im honestly surprised people dont stop bringing monks altogether (for farming the first few maps, at least)

Played with a Rank2 monk today that caught a lot of spikes with Infuse and was a lot better than some ranked monks I've seen.
