I changed lod to woh on my lod/d kiss hybrid since I only do HM anyway. I use 2x PWK, one life and 2x breath of the great dwarf on the human players for party healing. Or if im soloing I use breath and HP on me as mind blast / RI elly, 3 necros with PWK on the SS and healer, and henchies. I can manage without LoD.

Holy haste isnt any good in HM because you really need Aegis and either prot spirit or spirit bond. I usually put spirit bond on the monks and prot spirit on the MM.

I see two problems with the build.

1. You have nothing but LoD to make red bars go up. Get DKiss in there or something, your trying to use LoD as a spike heal which is not going to work.
2. Why do you have channeling you should never be that close to enemies to be able to use it, try GoLE or Divine.

I didnt read the OP's skill bar untill now, and sorry to say but its garbage in its current state. This is what you need to run for lod hybrid, and I took this bar from other players as well after realising how much better it works:

D kiss
LoD
Cure hex
Dismiss condition
Gole
Spirit bond / prot spirit
Aegis
Rebirth

12+1+1 heal, 9+1
Prot, 9+1 DF

Take your pick between SB and PS but make sure both of them are in your party, I.E put one on each monk. If using it on heroes only use SB, they are much better with SB then PS. And give them res sig. You shouldnt be getting killed if you 2 man with 6 heroes. If you are your doing it wrong.

Not going to read the whole thread because I'm feeling lazy but I'll say this:

Doesn't matter how good your monk is. If you fight shiro with 4 frontline players and a pet, they better all have wild blow or expect to permawipe.

Everyone blowing up the way you describe...I sincerely doubt that more than one person had it. Welcome to Battle Scars wipe aka "Flavor Country".

PS: Age, please use Word to work on your posts. A short one, its not so bad, but when you get going you can be hard to understand.

No.1I am not using LoD that much as I am using mostly protection spells.No2 I did have power drain but as I mentioned in my first post I don't interrupt well with it.I don't get that close to the badies to get damaged.

I can't use that build you posted as this account doesn't have EoTN and it the one I made up is mostly for portection not healing.It works well with heros and hechies around Kodash Bazaar.

The Dervs did not have wild blow as they weren't /W and I was wondering how it was going to go when I saw the pet.

If thats the case then dont spec into healing for JUST a party heal spell. Go RC, Divert, SoD, or ZB. Also if you not getting close enough to baddies then channeling isnt going to work anyways, reason monks use it in HA is because there in "shit" most of the time whether they like it or not. Also I would not bother with those types of interrupts on a human bar, where just too slow unless you are a mesmer, your better off with using Divine (fuel Deny Hex) or GoLE.

EDIT: About the DKiss build you can just use Remove Hex instead of Cure Hex.

Back when I did this on my monk, some 10 months ago?, I used a HB + GoLE + HP based build with Dwayna's Kiss and Words of Comfort. This build can counter heavy party wide damage.

Given the choice now, I'd probably hero hench the mission with a smiting build on my monk - and definitely a minion master with jagged bones/death nova hero. Minions usually make monks work much easier in general PVE.

The less frontliners the best. Blocking and hit and run also work.

I will probably go with ZB or SoD although I did replace LoD with Word and put Aegis in instead with GoLE.I might go and get deny although the buff to remove I find is nice.

I like this part what you said here.
I am not just jumping into the next pug for this mission without seeing everyones bar and knowing what their HP. are.
