Default The monk and the res sig

I have been carrying a res sig on my monk most if not all the time while PvPing. Occasionally whil PUGing I will get complaints from teammates when they notice me resing up in the halls. I see most monk build suggestions leaving this piece out of the equation. My question is why?

When in RA I see res as absolutely needed because you never know what you are going to get in there. In the halls, when playing with my guild we have decided that the extra res sig or two on the monks can help the team out of a jam and keep the attack moving if the offensive players don't have to stop their attack to res up. I'd just like to hear the idea behind leaving what I see as a vital piece out of a build. Thanks in advance for any input ppl may have.

res in ra might be nessesary because you might or might not have a tank with res (or you might not have a tank at all).

people say you shouldn't have res in pvp because it's not your job to do so. Your tank should be carrying it so you don't have to get in the middle of the battle.

You are saying you team will loose offensive power if they stop to res. But wont your team mates die if the monks stop to res? This isint PvE where you get "breaks" between mobs y'know.

Having 3 seconds out of the battle is long enough for someone to die; heck my me/r does 84 dps can can fell a guy flat in 6 seconds easy ^_~;; interrupts as well. So most monks do not carry a res knowing those 3 seconds standing still, ressing, defenseless, will be their end.

Yup, your best off switching Res Signet out for Chanelling in PvP. Ressing mid fight only leads to other members dieing. I found that out the hard way
