Attributes and Skills

<pvxbig> [build prof=Mesmer/Monk fast=11+1+3 prot=12 dom=6+3][Reversal of Fortune][Restore Condition][Spirit Bond][Aegis][Pacifism][Guardian][Hex Breaker][Restore Life][/build] </pvxbig>

Equipment

Protection staff with 20% enchant mod, dual 20% fast cast chance, and 20% fast recharge
High Energy set
Defense Set (spear/sword/axe with +health or armor and a Shield)
4th weapon set doesn't matter too much, play around with it and come up with something you like best (15>50 wand + protection offhand item is good, some may prefer a +5 energy weapon + protection offhand item or a second kind of defensive set)

Usage

Use Restore Condition on allies to get rid of conditions and provide a huge health boost.
Use Spirit Bond to help stop spikes. Try to watch the field and use it before spikes occur.
Use Pacifism to relieve pressure from teammates who are going to take damage from many different sources.
Use Guardian to protect against physical characters.
Use Reversal of Fortune as "heal".
Maintain Hexbreaker on yourself to avoid hexes.

Counters

Shutting down Restore Condition hurts a lot.
Heavy hex pressure - this build can not push bars up very well.

Variants

Dismiss Condition to give the character a direct heal and self-removal.
Remove Hex instead of Holy Veil (or as extra removal).
Drain Enchantment for energy management.
