Template:Untested-build

This PvE Monk build uses Healer's Boon to cast efficient healing spells. Combined with Glyph of lesser energy, this monk can heal the entire party for 240 HP with only 5 energy cost at 15 points in healing prayers. This monk is very efficient in mitigating party-wide damage and degen. For example this is effective in quickly recovering from searing flames from the ruby djinns.

Equipment

  • Due to the higher energy requirement of the build, an armor set with Blessed insignia would work the best.
  • Take a Low energy set such as an weapon and offhand with -5 energy and switch to that set if E-denial is expected.
  • Take a Normal set such as a staff (20/20) healing prayers with +60 HP. Use this set for regular healing.
  • Take a High energy set such as a wand and off hand that both has a +15 energy -1 regen mod on them. Switch to this set during emergencies but quickly switch back to the normal set as soon as you cast the spell or spells you need.

Usage

  • In a PvE teamsetup, this monk works best with a full prot monk in the party.
  • Remember that all your healing prayers spell's healing cpacity is boosted by 50% so becareful not to overheal too much by healing party members with little damage.
  • Kite away from enemies and heal your self using Healing Touch and Ethereal Light.
  • Make sure you're not under fire when using Ethereal Light. However, the chances of it getting interrupted is low due to the 1/2 second activation time thanks to Healer's Boon.
  • Use Glyph of Lesser Energy then cast Heal Party as needed. Each casting will heal the entire party for 120 HP. Unless you have a lot of energy, never use Heal Party with out using Glyph of Lesser Energy first!
  • Use Dwayna's Kiss on party members with enchantments or hexes on them to increase its efficiency. With the bonus from Healer's Boon it isn't unusual to see 300+ healing from dwayna's kiss on party members in areas with a fair number of hexes. Dervishes and Elementalists usually reap the highest benefit from this spell as they use enchantments on themselves fairly consistently.
  • When your enegery is zero, switch to a high energy set and use Glyph of Lesser Energy and switch back to the normal energy set and then use 2 spells at your leisure.

Counters

  • This build is vulnerable to E-denial.
  • Enchantment removal isn't too much of a problem as HB recharges fast and only costs 5 energy.
  • Anti-spam and Anti-Caster hexes.

Variants

  • Replace Dwayna's Kiss with another healing spell if hexes are not expected in an area.
  • Add Healing Touch for the optional spell for a nice, high powered self heal.
  • Dump some points into protection prayers to put in Shield of Absorption as an optional skill.
  • Add Words of Comfort in areas with deleterious conditions such as dazed etc.
  • Add Holy Veil as a hex removal in areas with more damaging hexes.
  • Add Dismiss Condition as a condition removal.
  • Add Extinguish and use it with Glyph of Lesser Energy for a cheap party-wide condition removal.

Notes

  • Silimar to Mo/Me Inspiration Boon Healer.
