I've only seen one person EVER use healing signet on a monk in TA successfully, and even he was just joking around with it. I'm pretty sure that anything you get hit with while using healsig will outDPS the heal you wouldve gotten from it, including prot spirit taken into account... 46AL is bad, a melee on autoattack will trigger pspirit. It's a decent build except for that skill. I also question bonetti's defense... Assuming you finally get enough adren to use it, it ends as soon as you cast a skill; a form of self-shutdown in my book. I know you're probably stressed for energy and bonetti's is nice when it actually works, but I recommend adopting your build and playstyle so you dont have to depend on that. Also notice that you have alot of (expensive) mitigation, but that you lack ways to actually push bars up. You have Gift for others and Healsig for yourself... Thats really about it, divert and dismiss are conditional.

I'm not familiar with the TA meta, so-to-speak, so I'm not sure how much mileage you can get with Divert. From what I've heard, ZB is the elite of choice in 4v4, but since I don't do anything except GvG, I don't know firsthand. Bonetti's Defense is a waste of time for a monk because it's not on-demand defense, and it ends when you use a skill. Also, you don't have any shouts or chants to use with Soldier's Defense, so I'm not sure what you have that for, unless you count on someone else on your team always being around to shout/chant you.

In a 4v4 format, the standard ZB Mo/A or Mo/E probably works best. If you want to go Mo/W, I would either use the standard Bash/Balanced, or the new WY/SD.

Divert is the choice of elite to go in TA if you dont have an Expel caster. [although so many will disagree, but i dont care, all those ZB lovers in TA are plain nabs that cant handle stuff alone. even as ZB you will need a warder, and support to help you remove hexes and conditions - a good Divert wont]

about Soldiers Defense; i faced that guy and his team, they had a constant Watch Yourself and Shields Up (or one of them only, not sure), so he usually has a Shout for it to work.

(we were the team that beat you after 56 or so minutes)

was an evil build, but we ran a fun build so i cant judge if it works fine. tho, i think you might run into energy problems without Devotion, and the lack of protection might hurt, but your teambuild also contained a support rit (to an extend), so its fine. i wouldnt use it in most other builds, tho.

Nice opinions, but only Mokone got it right
This build works like a charm in the TA build me and my guildies are playing.

Mokone i remember that game, was a nasty one In the end i got so tired of healing my party and decided not to heal them to end the game
Yes, i was the monk

I have to explain the build because anyone who sees Heal Sig on monk goes like <<what a noob>>
It's not entirely like that.
With 9 points in tactics u can use a req 9 tactics shields so u get the benefits of the +16 armor.
A team Member is a Steady Stance Warrior with 15 in Tactics who keeps Watch Urself up all the time so u have another 25 armor. He also have Shields Up (lasts 20 sec)
Soldiers Defence at 9 tactics last 5 sec (10 sec recharge) so 50% of the time u have 75% chance to block.
Bonetti is for emergencies and also when u are low on energy.

The build works like a charm. Mokone knows better
And here is a screen to prove that it also works against most of the builds used in TA:

It would seem fine to me i am not sure what soldier defence does but bonetti's is good.You could replace healing sig with sig of devotion instead that way you won't lose -40 armour when useing the heal sig other than that it looks fine if it is working for you.

Get rid of soldiers defence and heal sig

Bonneti's i find is excellent in small 4v4 arena's when you have 2 or 3 enemies you, it totally owns the warriors and is excellent energy management, allowing you to spam heals - usually they arent v. smart but sometimes they will notice that you are using bonetti and stop attacking you, try to conserve your energy in this case.

So basically if you want to use this build, get rid of heal sig and soldiers defence. Put in reversal of fortune and another skill(shield of absortion-or a defensive skill maybe?). Take some out of tactics, you dont need that much for 1 skill, as long as you are wanding ppl whenever u have the opportunity u dont need a long recharge, warriors get easily frustrated and move on if they keep missing anyway.

Keep up the inventive builds

sig of devotion is almost certainly better than healsig :S

I've seen bonetti's work; frylock from awsm used to run it. I'd probably drop it myself for shield bash or something, and I definetly wouldn't run heal sig on a monk.

Your use of soldier's, however, is pro.

Heal Sig at 9 tactics gives u 107 health. I allready told a few posts up that i have in the build Watch urself (+25 armor) and u have +16 armor from shield - so u have +41 armor. So u don't feel the loss of -40 armor when u use Heal Sig.
And it's energy free!

Anyway, the point of this thread was to show that a weird individual build, that ppl may think it's stupid is very good when u use it properly

P.S. and it's a real pleasure to use Heal Sig when u have 2 warriors pounding u and u don't care about it

And for the proof that the build works against many builds, below are some screenshots that u will find very interesting. We faced 4 Rt spike, Heavy Hexes, Melee Pressure, u name it - guess who won....
