Well, i was building a 55hp monk everything went fine buying the items i need etc runes,

But then i looked at the skills i needed, and noticed that i wasn't able to get some of the skills in factions i needed these skills:

Shield of Judgement
Aftershock
Breeze
Prot. Spirit
Mending
Blessed Aura
Balths Spirit
Essence Bond

Even if i look at youtube there are people in the factions campain with SoJ how do they do that.. ?

[skill]Shield of Judgment[/skill] is a very stupid skill because its AOE and it makes mobs run away from it.
I use SS its much much better.

[skill]Spiteful Spirit[/skill]>[skill]Shield of Judgment[/skill]

M/N = Ownage

Use Spoil Victor. And the people on Youtube have Prophecies and Factions, not just Factions.

Energy problems would likely preclude you from successfully running a 55/105 with only Factions. The two primary sources of energy for 55/105s are Prophecies based Essence Bond and Balthazar's Spirit. Other options such as Bonetti's Defense and Channeling are likewise Proph's only.

Shield of Judgement is an okay farming skill, but you can 55/105 without it using other spells such as the aforementioned Spoil Victor or Splinter Armor. Spiteful Spirit sounds nice, until you notice it requires Prophs too.

Blessed Aura is another spell that is Prophs only, which means enchantments will need to be cast more often, which with enough energy, is possible.

As for the other spells:
Aftershock, Healing Breeze and Protective Spirit are available in Shing Jae.

Mending is available at Kaineng Center.

Cheers,

They don't anymore run from SoJ and being a Monk I would rather use SoJ.Mending and Healing Breeze are both in Faction and don't use essence bond bless aura.

in the event where you are facing 4 and more foes [skill]Shield of Judgment[/skill] is better than [skill]Spiteful Spirit[/skill] because of the knockdown on the enemy gives u time to recast healing breeze or any other enchantment/spell that have long casting time. also u can combine [skill]Shield of Judgment[/skill] with [skill]Zealot's Fire[/skill] for greater damage

In normal mode, SoJ is good enough because mob AI usually doesn't respond to AoE much. In HM, I'd ditch it.

I have used it several times should I switch to triple chop.Like regular Monking stick to your own skills.

If I got a penny every time someone posts a question about 55 without searing, I'd be a millionaire.
