ok this is quiet a bit different from the normal 55hp monk build most often used in Toa, it is so much better and it makes 55hp monking easier to!

for the build you will have to be playing MO/D...yes a dervish!

1)mystic regeneration
2)protective sprit
3)spell breaker {E}
4)balthazar sprit
5)essence bond
6)blessed arua
7)sheild of absorption
8)bless signet

attributs and equipment: need 200 attrubutes for this
healing: none!
smiting - 10(spare points and for weapon
protection - 10 +3
devine favour - 12 + 3
earth prayers - 4 (all we need for +2 regen)

5 sup runes on of each is best +cheapest, a max damage rod(giving holy damage) -50 cesta

ok, first thing you will notice is they is absulutly no healing spells, not even mending:P

for these who dont know, mystic regeneration gives +X amount of helth regen' for each enchantment. for this build it will be giving us +2 regen what means when u have all 3 main enchants + protective sprit inplace with mystic regeneration will be giving us +10 regen, and this skill last for 20 seconds(longer then healing breeze) costs 10 energy and has a 1/4 casting time( not every easy to interupt by mobs) so really healing breeze is pretty much infearier to 'MR'
and u can foreget about bonttiis defence because SoA absorbs 5 damage givng you no damage. brilliant!

so we are taking no dmage apart from recharge of SoA what is about 1 second and we have 20 secs helth regen what lasts 20 sdconds what hardly ever gets interupted.

pretty good build
(oh i did look over the forums for a build like this and didnt see one ifsome one else has posted)

(plz dont nerf this anet!)

This build has been out for a very long while, yeah it works way better.

And for the bleeding, use mending. Not Shield of Absorbtion since it doesn't give you any regen. And I have no idea why you put 10 points in smiting while it could be in healing.

ibbo · Jan 28, 2007, 09:42 PM // 21:42

ok but then u would have to use attributes on healing and mending proberly at best give u +2 regen wid attrubutes left over, y i didnt incorpirate it in to the build, and yes i know bout SoA not giving helth regen, it isnt even needed just helps wid damage, oh and btw the helth regen wid main 3 enchats and SoA and PS and MR is +12 loads of regen!

I don't know why people continue posting a build around here. Everybody just gets put down whenever they bother.

You post something on a public forum so other people can read it and offer their opinions. I haven't seen anything nonconstructive in this thread. What were you expecting ? Everyone's going to shower the OP with praise ? That may be nice and all, but its mostly useless.

Effigy · Jan 29, 2007, 12:28 AM // 00:28

Since you're not using any smiting skills (Balth Spirit is basically no attribute for your purposes), you can pump Earth Prayers to 8 to get +3 per enchantment. Then bleeding is no problem at all.

Also, you should have 16 DF with the +1 hat. Stick leftover points in Prot to make PS last longer.

Red-Tide · Jan 29, 2007, 01:08 AM // 01:08

Maybe I'm missing something here, but how the hell do you kill anything with that build. Its all self protection / energy gain with no damage output. Is this meant as part of dual build? Most 55 builds I have seen are for soloing and I dont see how thats possible with your build.

Maybe I'm wrong, someone please explain.

j_unit66 · Jan 29, 2007, 01:40 AM // 01:40

its pretty hard to solo the uw, he would be partied with an ss necro. he just needs to tank all the baddies.

ephexx · Jan 29, 2007, 03:12 AM // 03:12

meh.. no one said anything about UW he just asked if the build is part of a dual build (example: ss & 55 in UW).

Lol, but it is possible to solo uw w/ 55 and other builds....

Effigy · Jan 29, 2007, 03:37 AM // 03:37

It's possible, yes, but slow and less reliable. From what I've heard, it's faster to duo farm and just split ectos.

devine favor

Dr Dem · Jan 29, 2007, 10:04 AM // 10:04

Mmm yea, personally this is my tanking build :

SoA

Prot Spirit

Watchful Healing (+4 regen, normally copes with most things, also DF heals when u cast SoA and PS, normally enough to keep u alive)

Mantra of Resolve (I find it almost essential, even SoA with 1/4c is still interrupted)

Spell Braker (If you need it)

Essence Bond, and Balths.

Blessed Aura (enables you to keep up SoA back to back)

Pump eveything into DF and Prot, any left over into Inspiration magic. SoA should last for 7 secs (with superior Prot) and coupled with blessed aura, lets you keep SoA, Watchful healing, and prot spirit (obviously) back to back, with interrupt protection and good energy income, I find it pretty full proof ^_^.

Ross C Anderson · Feb 11, 2007, 06:15 PM // 18:15

the reason that people dont find much use in this is that there is nothing new in this at all. SoA is now 1sec casting time as well. and as for bleeding, you should have no problem with that. the aatxe attacks are hardly raining down on you, huh? its the interrupts to worry about, which this build cannot deal with. essentially, this build is the same as before with a different form of regeneration and SoA pointlessly chucked in.

CagedinSanity · Feb 13, 2007, 06:25 PM // 18:25

I can't understand the point of a build where all the time is spent protecting and healing ones-self. How do you farm like that? Do 20 damage at a time and hope hoards of level 28 monsters eventually die?

I don't get it.

olly123 · Feb 16, 2007, 10:33 PM // 22:33

SS and 55's have been duoing the undwerworld for god knows how long..dont post nonsense.

theres also a lil skill called spoil victor imo the better choice, since a lvl 28 will never have under 55 health with 16 blood magic.

anyways how many duo monks/necros actually spilt the ectos evenly? all I really hear about is zomg he got 2 ectos on that run and he just left at the end!
