What is so special about this type of Monk? Is there a link on how to build this Monk (what skills, armors, etc.)?
Also, why they dont like to be ressurected when dead?

There's a monk forum further down the list. You should be able to find plenty of details in the threads in there: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/f...play.php?f=207
Basically, a 55 monk is a monk that has applied Sup. runes (no vigors) to his armor and uses a -50hp offhand item to get his total health down to 55 HP.
Then they bring Protective Spirit which makes attacks on you only do damage equal to 10% of your health. If your health is only 55, and because of how GW rounds numbers, then each attack only does 5 HP of damage. If you then also bring skills that increase your health regeneration enough, then you become nearly impossible to kill.
It's a very popular farming build. Not used often in PVP except to cause grief to people in Random Arenas.

Protective spirit keeps you from taking more than 10% damage from any one hit.
Let's say someone hits you for 100 hp damage each hit.
If you have 50 hp, you only take 5 hp per hit, so 10 hits to kill you.
If you have 500hp, you take 50 hp per hit, so also 10.
Regeneration rate is not affected by how many hit points you have.
So let's say you regenerate 10hp per second (with something like healing breeze). with only 50 hp, you recover from each hit in 1/2 a second.
With 500 hp, it takes you 5 seconds to recover from each hit, effectively you are healing 10 Times slower if you have 500 hp.
Even with healing spells like "heal other," a 50 point heal gets you back to 100% hp. a 50 point heal for a 500 hp character is only 10%.
These are theoretical numbers but it gives you the gist.
It's effective, but you need to be very careful about spell management since forgetting to use the right spell means you die in an instant.
