I was running the normal Prot Bond Build. Changed some things around, works pretty damned good. Oddly, I deal with Devourers when doing griffons much better than I used to, dunno why.

Gear

Collectors smiting staff 20/20
+5 energy head (not needed really)
19% enchanting wrapping (helps lots)

5 sup runes, tattoos.

Stats (including rune goodness)

inspiration 4
divine favor 12
protection 16
smiting 12

Note, these are probably suboptimal stat arrangements, but im lazy.

skills

Balth spirit
essence bond
prot spirit
zealots
balths aura
symbol of wrath
channeling
diving boon

throw up balth spirit, essence, divine boon and recharge.

throw up prot spirit, gather 2 groups of mobs (optimal number with this build is about 8 for griffs/ minos, hydras its 5 (because of knockdown))

Before they converge, hit channeling.

hit zealots first to get some health

hit divine/prot spirit as needed to recharge

hit balths aura as able

HIT PROT SPIRIT BEFORE YOU NEED IT, ALWAYS ( you will forget otherwise, and die when it runs out).

Use symbol of wrath to finish off stragglers.

Note against hydras -- Aggro the mobs simultaneously if you can. hit prot spirit--divine during the initial round of 2 knockdowns, then baths aura, then symbol (timing is important so you dont get knocked while doing symbol, you will die). One full balths aura/symbol will kill hydras with the attendant zealots goodness.

Suggestions?
