It's a cheesy nickname for the Dragon Slash build that most people have been running.

Dragon slash
Brawling Headbutt
Steelfang Slash
"Save Yourselves"
"For great justice"

With all that you can keep "SY" up pretty much 100% of the time and keep any enemy KD locked. Enduring Harmony is also used to get an extra 10secs out of "FGJ".

imo it's not very godmode'ish, especially compared to a paragon. As a melee, sometimes you'll be so far up that a few of your party members won't even be in range of "SY", and having to run around to hit stuff will also reduce the amount of time it's up. Paragons also get "There's nothing to Fear".

Bull's Strike might work, even if it is conditional.

Otherwise, not realy, but you can get close.

The other problem with "Godmode", is that SY doesn't effect you, only others.

If you don't have Brawling Headbutt you can also run a variant like this:
[skill]Dragon Slash[/skill][skill]Sun and Moon Slash[/skill][skill]"For Great Justice!"[/skill][skill]Flail[/skill][skill]"Save Yourselves!"[/skill][skill]Death Pact Signet[/skill] and then two other moves. I usually bring [skill]"You Move Like a Dwarf!"[/skill]and [skill]"I Am Unstoppable!"[/skill] But you can bring other skills as well.

I took in a pug yesterday who couldn't heal at all. When I asked for his build, it resembled more of a ranger's (and no interrupt) than it did as monk.

Chances are, if he can't get brawling headbutt, it's because he doesn't have EotN.

Brawling Headbutt simply requires you to complete the first full Dwarven Boxing dungeon.

Part of the point of SY is that you want them to target you and not anyone else, which is accomplished by having less armor than everyone else. If SY targeted the user as well, then that wouldn't be the case and other party members would be targeted more often.

SY targets all party members (not just the ones within earshot)

Brawling Headbutt simply requires you to complete the first full Dwarven Boxing dungeon. Never said he couldn't get it, just said if he doesn't have it. Not everyone completes the boxing dungeon, easy as it is.

As above, but really the Paragon version is a bit more effective imo.
[skill]"Save Yourselves!"[/skill][skill]"There's Nothing to Fear!"[/skill][skill]Focused Anger[/skill][skill]"For Great Justice!"[/skill] etc etc

The point of the paragon is to keep the defenses up, with damage being secondary; the point of the warrior is to deal damage, with defense being secondary. They have different roles.

There is no Paragon version of "Save Yourselves!"

Considering earshot is the size of the aggro bubble(see white earshot area on wikia), it's plenty of area for a warrior to affect those who need the buff, unless you are a total Leeroy; in which case, you deserve to die.
