Template:Build archive This build uses the Monk elite Zealous Benediction to provide ample healing abilities towards the party. Other Protection Prayers line skills are used to increase the defense of the user through Enchantments. The Dervish secondary profession provides the user with a constant health and armor boost through use of the Earth Prayers line. Those together, a versatile and stable healer with adequate defense is created.
