I have had people tell me that I should use all superior runes for my monk and I was like WHAT!!! ARE YOU NUTS!!!

they reply yeah but you can heal yourself. I see monks as healing others not yourself and with 100hp you would need to heal urself alot since monks always get targeted, I did get 2 superiors Heal and Divine Favor but Has anyone had all superiors on their monks and did it help or hurt you? Also I am gonna switch my secondary from Nerco. All my pts are in monk anyway, should I go Warrior (for sprint only) or Mesmer so I can steal energy to heal more?

its called protective spirit and protective bond

personally i like spirit because it doesn't kill my energy like bond does but you can get bond down to 1 energy loss so it isn't that bad and will let you survive 2x as many hits as spirit and you don't have to recast it. where as with pro spirit you can gain 2 energy per hit with essence bond and balth spirit and have 2 >> of energy regen. when you start spamming boon you will have a 0>> energy regen.

all up to you how you want to use it. it isn't good for most places seeing as enchantment removal almost instantly kills you. but by far the best farmers on the game.
