Default good or bad

first of i was looking here and wondered how the guy got 2
elites on 1 bar, then i wondered how he got 7000 heal?
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10341822

next question my monk hero build
Code:
OwAS0YILaUJd3/uvnTZ0rD


word of healing
signet of dev
ethereal light
healing whisper
healing touch
orison of healing
extinguish

+12 dev favor
+12 + 2 healing

anyone wondering why i dont have a hex remover
my partner runs hex eater on his build thats why
i carry extinguish..

final question ..

hero monk health 641 energy 42
is it worth dropping 5^50 inscription
for 15-1 inscription or removing staff
head+30 for staff head+5 but i would
drop+30 going down to 611..
i wondered if having both was good or bad
staffhead+5 + inscription 15-1 ?

Too many healing skills. Keep WoH and Signet of Rejuvenation.

Add GolE (Mo/E), an change the other skills for Protection Prayer Skills (Protective Spirit, SoA, Aegis..). Attributes will be 12+1+1 Heal/10+1 Prot /8+1 divine

About equipment: 15/-1 will run your hero dry too soon. Try to get a 40/40 healing set, or a 40/20/20% protection staff if you want to use Protection Prayers.

if you don't have nightfall, the only skill you lose is SoA:

[Word Of Healing][Signet Of Rejuvenation][optional][Protective Spirit][Shielding Hands][optional][Glyph Of Lesser Energy][Aegis]

You can add, [Patient Spirit],[Mend Ailment], [Reversal Of Fortune]... Even [Guardian] O_O

Default hmmm

my partner runs hex eater on his build thats why
i carry extinguish..

most hex removers have 8 second+ recharge for 1 char
hex eater he has set on 1+3 remove at least its poss
to hit 4 hex removes in 1 go than 4 over 8+seconds
on a single shot hex remove...right?

and is 2 heal spells enough...me and my partner both
run og/vec/livia - i run minions on livia he runs curses

is 4 heals between 2 monks enough for a party of 8?

Why Extinguish. Why. It's good only when you expect enemies to apply AoE burning, like in Ring of Fire, Desolation or Vabbi.

Hex Eater Vortex is 1 hex. It doesn't remove more than 1. Or do you mean Hex Eater Signet? In that case, 25 recharge is baed. Sure, it's nice when you are the only human, as heroes are terribly bad at removing hexes, or when there are things like [Suffering] or [Lingering Curse] or [Deep Freeze]. But otherwise, no.

Protting > healing. Preventing > fixing. Besides, WoH, Patient Spirit and Signet of Rejuvenation is more than enough for a good monk.

I would prefer this:

[build prof=Mo/Any healing=12+1+2 prot=9+1 divine=9+1][word of healing][dwayna's kiss][dismiss condition][Signet of Rejuvenation][shield of absorption][protective spirit][cure hex][rebirth][/build]

But since you don't have Nightfall, [[Mend Ailment] can replace [[dismiss condition] and [[Shielding Hands] can replace [[shield of absorption].

glyph of lesser 15 secs next 2 cost 10 less
word of healing 122 heal extra 92 below 50%
dywanas kiss heal 57 + 33 for each ench or hex
blessed signet gain max 14 energy
cure hex 114 if removed
shielding hands -13
prot spirit 17 seconds 10%
aegis 9 seconds

havnt fixed attributes yet
12+1+1 heal
10 prot
9 div

any better yet?

also as my energy is only 42 and thats adding a
energy+2 rune on armor health is 641
would using a 40/40 heal set increase energy
even though i no ide drop the +60health on my staff
is it worth it?

You don't get energy from blessed signet with that bar.

And hi. Read me before posting dumb questions.

Take that bar, it's the best suggestion posted imho. I'd personally ditch rebirth for something else though.

He was asking for a Hero Monk Build, that's why I suggest GolE.

P.S: I love GolE, even in PvE Q_Q

EDIT: I wouldn't take any resurrection skill on a monk's bar.

QFT.

Had he read Holy's Monk Guide, he'd know that the 5 seconds it would take for his Monk Hero to [[[email protected]] someone would be 5 seconds better used Healing/Prot'ing.

Also, Rebirth should never be used mid-fight. Drains all energy FTL.

That would be fine playing with heros only but in a bad pug it is best to take rebirth so you don't get screamed at and called names.

Monks are my favorite Profession. Would be great if you carried a few protection spells like Picuso has set up.

Since this is campfire, I'm assuming PvE.

@Abedeus,

In my opinion taking hex removers depend a lot on the area.
In some cases there are only non-harming hexes. In others one would need deep removal since some foes stack a load of hexes at once.
I would mark the slot for hex remover utility, where depending on the area a hex remover can be taken.

@OP,

I prefer using a hybrid, like ac1inferno posted (without the res), on heroes.
On human players full prot (Div Hex or RC), WoH hybrid if an other human monk has full prot.
