I've been using the following build mostly in the Tombs and recently also outside, and i consider it (pve-wise) a very handy build.
It's build around HB stacking with Holy Haste.
[skill]Ethereal Light[/skill][skill]Dwayna's Kiss[/skill][skill]Orison Of Healing[/skill][skill]Heal Party[/skill][skill]Remove Hex[/skill][skill]Holy Haste[/skill][skill]Healer's Boon[/skill][skill]Restore Life[/skill]
At start cast HB and then Holy Haste (other way around removes HH again).
Main heal is orison, spike heal ethereal, and the main heal for pullers (they're always getting hexed) and other hexed/enchanted allies is of course Dwayna's Kiss.
Heal Party is mosty for long distance or emergency healing (at breakthru of enemies causing the party to scatter for instance).
Using remove hex for a quick recast ability, since you can heal in about 1/4th of a second you can spare 2 secs for hex removal every 7 secs.
Restore life is mid-battle castable, making it ideal for rezing the MM after an interrupt spike. Rangers can keep on barraging, since your ally will be back on his feet with ready to go energy and health in less then 2 seconds.
Only problem could be energy at busy moments, but thats why the order is bringing BR . (and if you have got a decent party, you won't be healing much).
Any thoughts? Suggestions? Criticism?
Disclaimer: if this build, or something very familiar to it has already been posted my excuses .
Hasty HB healer

75%.
There's no such thing as instant-casting in this game.
Btw, people use HB pve because of the bonus, not the faster casting. You don't need fast casting for PvE, which is why people use Meteor Shower and crap like that.
Go for power and energy management, not speed.

Been there, Done that, Bought the T-Shirt.
One skill is nice to half the casting time but 2 isn't really required for PvE...except it makes Res Chant uber UBER leet.

Still, 1/8s=stance, if i'm not mistaken(at 1/8 you can dance+cast at the same time)

I think you need 1/12 to cast and dance, so if you used infuse on a build with healer's boon+haste/fast casting you'll get that cool factor (interesting I think leader's zeal is something that stops dancing...). To be honest though... I would drop orison, healer's haste, restore life and remove hex. Add gole or even auspicious incantation, something for conditions, a better hex removal or even deny+DS which is quite an underated energy management skill. haste+boon is basically overkill unless you've got something like channeling feeding you more energy management than you could use if you tried.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm not using condition-removers since burning is easily outhealed and deepwound i don't consider a big deal. I have noted why the choice of the unusual hex removal, but i'll give holy veil another try. Energy is never a problem in the tombs, but i agree it sometimes is in regular pve (but then again, if it is, i would with a regular (woh/lod) build. I'm not into e-management on my monk a lot. Maybe should consider it . (inspired hex for instance).

Orison --> Words of Comfort, it's a HB build for crying out loud, you shouldn't be spamming spells
Holy Haste --> Dismiss Condition, since you need condition removal for conditions that are deadly such as Blind and Dazed, even if you consider Deep Wound nondeadly (I consider Deep wound deadly).
Remove Hex --> deny hexes, 2 second cast is suicide, and having HB means Deny removes at least 2 hexes when HB is recharging
Heal Party is marginal at best, given there is LOD

Personally, I think you need to fit in 2 skills to your build, GolE and Prot Spirit. Prot Spirit keeps allies from getting spiked, especially allies at high death penalty. While normal mode groups don't usually require this, it's almost a must have for hard mode. Glyph of Lesser Energy has great synergy with Heal Party, especially in a HB build since you are maintaining an enchantment.
Three spike heals is more than enough, so either Orison can be dropped for Prot Spirit or Ethereal can be dropped and Words of Comfort should replace Orison. Orison is simply a weak spell. Holy Haste is also overkill and doesn't work with a build that uses Protective Spirit, since it's an enchantment.
Oh yea, drop Remove Hex. If you want a hex removal, take Deny Hexes, otherwise bring another heal. Hexes from NPCs in PvE is often a waste since they are usually pretty weak and don't do enough damage to merit the cost/time of the hex removal.

Drop Holy Haste as you don't need it with Healers Boon as well but Res chant instead of Restore Life.I would consider a hex remover maybe deny hexes and a condition remover.
