What stats should I put on my monk to make him a runner (if it's at all possible) - no long distnce runs, just a few of the early-level ones (nothing like droks)

Need to make money....

Think Dervish
Think renewable instantly, (renewable... is that a word)
Think Enchanments and stances.

I do a Monk/Derv run with a 55 set up for simple place, and have a Spell breaker build for harder.

Seriously Derv has what you need, anti-knockdowns, healing with enchanments and Speed boosts.

I don't have nightfall yet....

hmmm well warrior is good for a secondary

charge, sprint and balanced stance can work well with a monk

Assuming you can get your health to 55 then:

[skill]Protective Spirit[/skill] + [skill]Healing Breeze[/skill] will keep you alive.
[skill]Blessed Signet[/skill] will regain your energy
[skill]Mending[/skill] is useful in areas with a lot of degen
[skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill] will help you with energy regen

With a warrior secondary:

[skill]Bonetti's Defense[/skill] IMO the best energy management skill for a 55 + it stops attacks
[skill]Balanced Stance[/skill] will stop any knockdowns

I have shield of regen. I'll replace healing breeze with that.
Rest looks good.

Thanks!

i prefer this build for a monk runner, works wonders
much hp as possible
[skill]Spell Breaker[/skill][skill]Serpent's Quickness[/skill][skill]Storm Chaser[/skill][skill]Holy Veil[/skill][skill]Purge Conditions[/skill][skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill][skill]Blessed Aura[/skill][skill]Watchful Spirit[/skill]

attrabutes

divine 14
wildness 12

now ju keep ur 3 enchantments up and run liek hell, jsut remember to use [skill]Serpent's Quickness[/skill] b4 [skill]Spell Breaker[/skill] so u can get 2 in a row and [skill]Storm Chaser[/skill] because ur faster than the warrios ur take almost no dam orm them, and [skill]Spell Breaker[/skill] stops spells so the regain on[skill]Watchful Spirit[/skill] shoudl give that health back, but if u need hp jsut remove [skill]Watchful Spirit[/skill] for an extra 150hp.

dont need bless sig if you only keeping 2 upkeeps.

try this:

[skill]Protective Spirit[/skill][skill]Healing Breeze[/skill] [skill]Mending[/skill][skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill][skill]Balanced Stance[/skill][skill]sprint[/skill][skill]rush[/skill]

55 is the way.

.. oh lol totally forget my main point... [skill]spell breaker[/skill]

also pre veil is nice but i dont see the point. use to run with 55 in the shivers peak, with sprint rush u can pretty much lose all agrro before Sb wear off. with 16 df and 20% u should get it to like 21 sec which is more then enough to lose any agrro. only thing that might hold u back is being crippled. u can always drop rush for [skill]Purge Conditions[/skill]. just remember to cover prot spirt with breeze.and to reapply it fast once it get removed.that in the case u still have aggro and Sb if off.
