Default Useless Skills. Please Help!!
Can anyone at all tell me why the MONK SKILLS,

AMITY

and

REVERSAL OF FORTUNE

ARE ABSOLUTELY USELESS, NON FUNCTIONAL, NOT WORKING as stated skills??

I have tested them constantly. They simply do not work. Perhaps I am looking for the wrong effect??

Please help!!!!

Reversal = next attack you get life instead (prot defines how much max life you can get) ?

dunno 'bout amity, but as a prot monk I use reversal all the time. It's a lifesaver.

Reversal definitely works, 100% beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Amity is kind of frail because it ends the next time that target takes any kind of damage.

If you have anyone in your group using any kind of AoE, it is pretty terrible for this reason.

(if it's any consolation, you can still degen the guy to death )

Imagine this game in 3 or 4 chapters from now. When we have 1000s of skills available to us. There wont always be a use for every skill at every moment in the game.

Look at something like Magic The Gathering. Cards go in and out of the meta game.

For an example of how Amity can be game changing, take this skill into battle vs these 7 warrior/pet faction farming builds. It will pretty much stop them cold!

Reversal is a staple on any monk protector. Period. It heals damage up to its limit (ammount you have in prot). It can easily negate one single lightning attack, or can provide additional health for a small attack like a wand attack.

I hope there wont be a chapter 4. Hopefully, Guild Wars 2, cus the graphics will probably suck by chapter 4.

But seriosuly, reversal of fortune definately works.

Honestly I don't see how healing monks get along with Orison. When I'm rushing around trying to save everyone, my 1 second guardians (with a orision sized heal due to boon) seem painfully slow compared to that .25 RoF.

I wish you would elaborate more. IoWs HOW are they not working for you, and what testing have you done. I for one have found them both to work exactly as their descriptions state.

Here is example of amity. You are by yourself in front of 4 enemy players. So, you use amity annnd....they just stay and watch how you ressurect your comrades, and they begin ressurect another. Well...keeping in mind that enemies must be next to you it is difficult to use.

Ok - for example such low ranged skills are - Epidemic - pretty cool but again with adjustment range. Also Mark of pain - only adjustent foes and so on. Adjustent often are pretty low used in TA, while in Tombs the works are different. Such spells are easily used by primary necro or mesmer, cuz they stay in the back and observe and when see some descent situation - they cast them.
