It does promote mindless spamming and not very skillful play, but the bar itself serves the purpose of surviving without support in the Arenas really well.

I love your avatar. Awesome.

I was also surprised by the Covenant build when I tried it. I still don't think it's great, but it didn't suck like I thought it would.

Patient Spirit is a pretty good skill in general now.

i think it is one of the worst bars simply because it promotes the kind of play style that should be disencouraged in general (guess which).
I think its one of the worst monk bars because it abuses otherwise one of the best monk skills in the game.
I think its one of the worst monk bars in game because it requires 0 skills to be played efficiently, like a thumper, a shatterting assault sin, an eda and so on and so fort.
that's enough I-think's for now, mehtinks =P

also, i never said it SUCKED.
by saying its one of the worst bars i was refering to the fact it is way too good for the strategy it requires - spam and nothing but spam. reminds me a bit of prenerf sand shards and cop abuse.

as far as patient spirit is concerned, i agree it is a very useful and a strong skill, esp in TA.
then again, a ZB prot still looks more intriguing (to me). Pity the bar carries twice the amount of risk a WoH with patient spirit and spotless mind does.
On a side note PLEASE FIX THE SPOTLESS DUO. I know its great and all, used it myself a lot as a WoH but its just way too strong with the bug.
