u say heal party and healing seed, but i prefer for one monk to take one , and i take the other, as having 2 15e spells on one bar can be a bigger bummer with energy, and ur only e management is inspire hex, so id remove one of them and add in healing whisper, i know it brings u close to the mob, but with the new AI update, the mob normally goes after the casters any way.
to effigy, im use to pve, more than PVP, tho i have started in PVP, and in pug teams, its hard as nails to find 2 good monks, who don’t steep on each others toes, so unless ur in a guild team/ got 2 superb monks, i find 2 protects not as good as 1 of each ( unless u get monk 1 to protect 4 and monk 2 to protect the other 4)

Thanks for the input everyone... Geekling made some rather astute observations in particular. I think half of my problem is itchy fingers on the heal button. I am going to work on my build a little bit, but also keep my poor little monk away from pugs.
Thanks again.

Add that to the PUG situation where there is usually no time to rest and recoup that energy between fights - with some PUGs more or less the whole thing is one long dragged out fight.
I will admit at this point that I am a recovering itchy fingers monk myself. Not healing unless really needed can be one of the hardest lessons to learn when it comes to monking.

Orison is a weak skill that almost always reinforces the bad behavior described above.

Please don't!
Monking for PUGs are great fun, once you get into the groove of it.
Nothing is quite like the feeling of having kept a group of Leroy Jenkins clones alive through a mission inspite of all their tries to commit sucide. It's the second best thing in the game in regards to PUGs.
And of course there are a lot of good PUGs out there, ones that don't turn it into a player vs. player thing (Player of Leroy Jenkins clones trying very hard to die vs. player of monks trying to beat them at their game by keeping them alive. :P ) When you find them, and you will... Well, I mentioned the second best thing, this is what beats it.

Light of Deliverance on the other hand is great in helping that recovery from having itchy fingers.
Waiting for a few players to go below 80% is doable, it's not so hard. Eventually you get used to seeing red bars in the party window that are not full without getting the urge to do something about it, NOW! - Well then, you're half way there on the path of recovery.
