She has a PvE monk. It has legendary guardian. And I'm pretty sure I just got legendary master of the north with her monking in my PvE group. Go get your facts straight. You are bad and you can't even get facts straight.

I know one of the top ten PvP Monks in GW and watched him and started playing his style and took some of his advise and if I need more I will ask him. Didn't you just say this is a PvE forum. No one cares about your top 10 PvP monk if he doesn't PvE.

To holymasamune.What part of my post do you disagree or what part do you think is wrong?Post something intelligent instead of what you said.This is what being an adult is like.

To Mokone. I would really love to see you do that don't forget to film it and put it on filefront for DL. Will you pay me if I do it instead?

And what happened to your top 10 monk? I was looking forward to what he thinks about this. Got caught making something up so you have to delete that part of the post?

Back On Topic ...

In normal mode spirit bond wont trigger often enough for it to be viable. In hard mode the damage mitigation from PS outweighs the heal from spiritbond on the majority of occasions (in my personal experience). I would try and have both skills within my party set up. But as previously mentioned if you have to choose, PS in pve is significantly more usefull in the majority of situations.

people there is no better between spirit bond and protective sprit they both do different things so lets say in pve if u do get hit for big dmg ps is great bu if u get hit for less dmg but have 2 rangers and 3 wariors locked on u than spirit bond is better,it really depends upon the situation,spirit bond wont prevent mouch dmg form a spirit rift that comes form a boss in hm.I use both no on the same bar tho.

To Mokone:nice titles and exp and skill points im kinda near to u with mi monk im just wondering what will happen when u get to 999 skill points because im very near it got more titles to do tho.

spirit bond calculates the dmg before protective spirit so even if u have 100 hp, put on protective spirit and spirit bond it will still trigger If the initial dmg done by the mob was higher than 60,but u would only see takeing 10 dmg which is 10% of your 100hp

Only time I used SB in PvE was before it was nerfed. Since then, I've rather had other stuff on my bar. Not to say it's a horrible skill, as Avarre said it's about how you use it.

GGs If we are all taking the IMBAgon then there is no reason honestly for either, with a solid 80% + dmg reduction all we need is condition removal and hex removal to keep the paragon clean. Simple for the fact that with SY and TNtF up SB would never trigger and PS would be a waste of 10e at any point.
