Another Energy Management Idea!

Hi guys,

Ok for the past few months I've been using Offering of Blood for energy management, its good, but I think this is alot better...

Coupling Glyph of Renewal and Divine Spirit, having DS running for 14/15 seconds with +20% enchant weap, (and/or blessed aura, but not essential) allows you to run DS continuaslly.

It costs 15 energy, every 15/20 secs, and takes 1, and 1/4 seconds (combining both builds), might sounds like a pain in the ass but not really.

I can continuaslly spam 5energy heal/prot spells, with my energy actually increasing, and by the time i need to recast GoR and DS, my energy is tipping at 58/59, after spamming spells back to back.

Also, coupling Glyph of Lesser Energy to help you out, you can use the same strategy spamming heal party. Not back to back, but every 5 seconds or so, you can heal the whole party for 71 or 80 health (can use Sup runes, since you wont be under fire), whilst staying outside the range of any enemies, and even your party. Excellent as a 2nd monk backup build, also makes you an effective ressurector, if your whole group dies infront.

AND The build works with Smites, I can contiuaslly (yes again) spam heal, and touch smites without ever running out of energy.

Enchantment Removal is one problem, but you normally have enough Energy to heal, and then retry casting GoR & DS 15 secs later, so its not too bad.

It leaves you alot of room to experiment, since it only requires 2 slots, but it does take alot of Divine Fav attribute for it to work, a superior rune helps.

I haven't finished testing it properly, but for now It seems to work pretty dam good really ^_^

Tell me what you think.

This is not new info it is rather old info as everyone knows about GoR and DS but back a few months others preferred Mantra of Recall and Energy Drian for the booners.This isn't new most know about it already but thanks.It is better to use Glyph of lesser energy as it has been buffed and you can use your Monk elite.

*sigh* well thats put me to s***t lol.

Well I'm still glad I found it for myself at least. Yes, I wouldn't recommend this setup with booners, but does work well with the right build imo.

I played around with Mantra of Recall, but I found Offering of Blood to be more relaible, i.e I can get the energy when I really need it, not waiting for Mantra. Glyhph of lesser energy is ok, but I've never really used it, since its 30 sec recharge.

But thanks I guess.. lol

It's very spammable indeed, I used it a couple of months as well (pre-Factions), but I stepped away from it when starting Factions, it just didn't work as good anymore.

And especially now, with all the enchantment hate, the build isn't as reliable as it used to be (Grenth Dervishes, anyone?); another vulnerability was the fact that you had to stop spamming every 15-16 seconds to get the glyph and enchant back up.

Oh, and I used 16 DF with a 20% enchant mod, it was easy to keep up... but now I just prefer other builds that don't rely on the use of 2 skill each time they run out, a teammate could get killed in those 2 seconds that you aren't healing.

Except for mesmer would rip you apart. Well...assuming this is PvE, sounds great

Yes, PvE, and not for Booner builds lol.

I've been testing it out a little, and its very good , although now an then mesmers are trouble, but hey, they always are.

*edit* I want to place a bid on that Scroll you got there Kuja
