Default Melandru

Hey guys...opinions about avatars aside (better worse etc), if you HAD to use Avatar of Melandru, considering the hight cost what skill bar would you use?

I was thinking:

[skill]avatar of Melandru[/skill][skill]eternal aura[/skill][skill]heart of fury[/skill][skill]victorious sweep[/skill][skill]Wearying Strike[/skill][skill]Mystic Regeneration[/skill] Rez, Optionals

Now, Im up for anything, but I really like the immunity from conditions that Melandru brings. No Deepwound, etc. If you had to use her...what would you bring?

Swap to high energy set, cast Melandru + EA, swap back down. You can also switch to a zealous scythe when dealing with more than one enemy.

The new zealous sweep comes in handy too..although I still take ZR.

My bar would be:

[skill]wearying strike[/skill][skill]zealous sweep[/skill][skill]victorious sweep[/skill][skill]heart of fury[/skill][skill]zealous renewal[/skill][skill]eternal aura[/skill][skill]avatar of melandru[/skill] res or utility skill

Some people like [skill]draw conditions[/skill] or [skill]imbue health[/skill]....but meh that's what monks are for.

Ohh and do like Phantom said...high energy weapon to switch to (+20 energy staff for example). Radiant insignias help too.

I use full radiants, about 35 base energy. My energy handles itself.

Once you get going, zealous scythe and all.. no probs.

You gain energy back fast enough with a Zealous scythe. I've never had problems with my 25 base energy. Though if you are having problems you can just take Flail over Heart of Fury to help out a bit.

This is what I run with Melandru...energy can be an issue but if you watch it carefully it's usually not a problem.

[skill]Great Dwarf Armor[/skill]
[skill]Avatar of Melandru[/skill]
[skill]Faithful Intervention[/skill] or [skill]Watchful Intervention[/skill]
[skill]Wearying Strike[/skill]
[skill]Lyssa's Assault[/skill]
[skill]Wild Blow[/skill]
[skill]Drunken Master[/skill] or [skill]Flail[/skill]
[skill]Eternal Aura[/skill]

Generally run a couple radiant and attunement runes on my armor for a little extra juice. Great Dwarf Armor adds enough to my AL anyway. Faithful or Watchful could also be replaced with [skill]Mystic Regeneration[/skill] but only really worth while if you put 8 points into Earth Prayers for the +3 bp.
