I heard it mentioned twice today so I thought I'd ask... when is that skill good to bring around and when is it worth giving up something like a WoH to use?

WoH is a heal, arguably the best hard heal available atm.

That said, it depends on what type of build you are creating. If your a healer, Pendulum could in no way replace WoH.

RA/TA pretty much, it's usually paired with a WoH/ZB Monk or WoR Rit.

Run it with a Smiter's Boon monk in PvP. It's what I do because in RA and TA everyone and their mom runs some kind of knockdown skill and if your a monk your probably going to receive 90% of them.

Balthazar's Pendulum receives the benefits of Smiter's Boon, and it knocks down anyone trying to knock you down. It also has a 5 sec recharge so a smiter's boon monk can find this as a pretty spamable heal so even if your in a match where your not getting knocked down a lot it can still be used as a simple heal spell.

It's a great support skill when you are running a smiter. Run with smiter boon isn't a bad idea at all (good indeed.)

well balth pendulum is a smite skil if im not mistaken and is a great elite to mess with knockdown warriors just put them on the ground instead of your self but if your a healing monk you have no bussiness bring that skill into your bar
