k, got bored after first page of this but I'd just like to add (may have already been said) that if it comes to the stage where your monk has to start rezzing then your offense sucks and the team should just disband anyway.

Let's end this...

Classic boon prot build for 4v4 PvP:

-Reversal of Fortune
-Mend Condition
-Gaurdian
-signet of devotion
-Inspired Hex/Holy Veil
-CoP
-Mantra of Recall
-Divine Boon

RoF- the pithe of your healing.
Mend Condition-name says it all.
Gaurdian- Breaks up combo attacks and keeps you alive.
Signet of devotion-helps with edenial and helps w/ emanagement.
Inspired hex/Holy Veil-Diversion/emangement/removal of hexes.
CoP-Best way to removed hexes/conditions and self-heal.
Mantra of Recall-E management.
Divine boon- wouldn't be a boon prot monk without it.

Alright now, you tell me which skill you would remove and replace with Rez?

I dare you...

I think bringing a Rez sig to PvP is like bringing Heal Breeze in PvE. Its something most do in the beginning, but it's soon dropped in favor of something better.

Monk is always the priority target. As long as you are alive you are the one getting attacked 90% of the time. So you are either dead, or getting killed the entire time. That was why I graduated and switched out my Rez sig, I didn't see any point in bringing it if 90% of the time, I would not need it, much less be in a position to use it. So instead, I brought another skill that would be helping most of the time, and I'd always be in a position to use. So don't assume that the naysayers haven't 'tried it'. Where logic fails... experience will eventually win out. Whether you believe us now or not, you'll eventually come to the conclusion on your own.

The reason I said bring a res sig in RA and TA is that you don't really know your group well enough so in the event of them leaving.I alway take a res sig in in those places if I am playing a healing Monk and for the most part I only use 3 skills Orison,Word and Touch.I don't worry to much about poison or hexs I just keep them healed up.This can appy to HA as well if you are in a very bad pug.There are times when I think that these 3 pvp areas are worse than coop missions.

Hmm... I know, nothing!

For 4 vs 4, I must say that in the current metagame, Hex Breaker > Signet of Devotion, and E-Drain > Mantra of Recall.

Amen to that.

Hahahaha, funniest.thread.ever. I havn't run with a res sig in my bar (as monk) since before Angry Businessmens and Dynasty Warriors were famous on the PvP scene!

"Alright alright, TIME OUT PEOPLE, everyone STOP THE GAME RIGHT NOW! Now, I need to take a four second break, during which I'm completely vulnerable to interrupts, unable to kite, unable to prot against adren spikes, with no way to heal or protect the rest of my team and pull off this res sig. So, if everyone could just pause the game for a minute, you know, scratch your nose or something... HEY, HEY YOU: THUMPER IN THE BACK! DON'T THINK I DIDN'T SEE YOU SNEAKING AROUND BACK THERE! Ah, good. Thanks guys. You're the best."

Well apparently you don't know how to read. As I stated "Classic boon prot build." There are many variations.

Well that's just fine and dandy. So remind me again which one of those is a rez? Oh we are back to the fact that you don't know how to read.

^^^^

Hmmm.....

Well if so, I think I need to take a break from these boards -- starting to unravel my ability to read & reason.

Regardles, I am still anxiously awaiting someone to take up my challenge -- squeeze the rez skill on there please.

Inthe event of them leaving? As in you have to compete 3 v 4?Well then a rez skill won't help, I'd say you're screwed. You really need a: I need a 4th player signet . Rumor has it they might be releasing that one for chapter 4.

You use only 3 skills basically? LOL, and how do you survive with those skills? Touch and Orison? ugh...Let's be honest here, you really haven't ever played RA/or TA, have you? Maybe you got the acronyms mixed up with a couple of PvE missions?
