This is exactly the sort of attitude that keeps me using heroes ad nauseum. Deciding ahead of time that a self-heal is unnecessary does not equate to players thinking you're somehow "their bitch."

Heart of shadow is great in RA/AB/any other scrub PvP or PvE, but crap in other situations because sins are meant to kill stuff fast

So by that note I could say....

I dont sin for players without a damage deal skill. my job as a sin is not to be their DPS bitch. I help players that help themselves. I shoulda named my sin Chuck Norris.....

...Que?

What's all this about running and monking?
I only see shadowsteps as tools to charge at targets... never to cowar in fear and flee! But I do get about 15 deaths per AB...

Who needs a human monk in pve nowadays anyways? Seriously now. People hero/hench HM stuff all the without any selfheals. The only people that are lf monks are the ones that give their heroes crappy builds then try to blame them for a wipe. Even the 2 hench monks will do if your 3 heroes have proper builds and pick the right henches.

Selfhealing sucks. If you have a defensive skill that benefits you only, get that junk out of your skillbar and replace it with something that's useful to the entire team - enfeebling blood for necs, wards for ele's, shouts for para's/wars, weapon spells for rits, throw dirt/interrupts on a ranger, etcetc.

Heart of Shadow is for Shadow Form runners.

While I've noticed more often than not it has an annoying habit of teleporting you backwards and never forwards (resolved by doing a 180, using the skill, then 180ing again)...... I use Heart of Shadow when I get body-blocked under Shadow Form while running from A to B and need to get past the blockage. Not only that but it can be a total saving grace if Shadow Form drops before you're out to safety thanks to healing before the damage is done (more akin to damage prevention).


Aside from that though.... not much good.
It is bloody annoying in the hands of Vermin in Hard Mode though.

I like heart of shadows. Maybe its just me? I've used it about 80 some times and only a few have mesed me up. Use it to get by bodyblocks, a heal, or a speed up. Speed up you wonder? Use your autorun key and then use the skill. So far it has ALWAYS moved me forward when I figured that out. Maybe I'm just lucky? Anyways. Self heal=always bring it. Any monk that says if you have a self heal I won't heal you is crap then. I mean personality wise not monking wise. I mean think about it. You don't know the person behind the computer screen. How do you know they aren't just gonna leave once you get to a mob or when it gets rough? What if they are bad at monking? If any monk tells me they won't heal someone that brought a self heal I wouldn't care if they were the best monk in the #1 guild I'd kick em.
