I dont pvp a smite monk.

There arent a whole lot of options though. Zealots Fire, Balth Aura, Symbol of Wrath, are all probably musts...since your running fire, you want some low energy heals, healing touch and orrisons for healing, or reversal of fortune for protection. If you run protection then protective spirit is a no brainer. Smite Hex would be one I wouldnt leave home without too.. So, for protection monk:

Zealots Fire, Balth Aura, Symbol of Wrath, Reversal of Fortune, Protective Spirit, Smite Hex and one other spell...without giving this much though, I would toss in...Mark of Protection [E] or Shield of Judgement [E].

Like I said though, I dont run a smiter, but it took me a whole 30 seconds to come up with that, which should be solid. You might have to test run it and make small alterations (ditching Symbol would be my first guess, or taking a rez) but you dont need to ask for builds, just figure one out..it takes 30 seconds...

Note: Divine Boon might be worth taking too, its spamable, low energy fires off Fire and keeps you healed.

Smiters take a lot of experimentation to find a good build, but once you do, they're awesome. I suggest you take a look for yourself, rather than following anyone's advice on the matter, because they may be as clueless as you are. Protection Prayers as well as, perhaps Tactics, to keep yourself alive is essential, while dealing damage is also one of your priorities. Just keep in mind that, as a monk. People think you're a healer/protector, and will stop at nothing to flatten you.
