You're talking to a 55 monk here who has absolutely NO KNOWLEDGE on healing or prot.
So. What are some efficient monk heroes?

[[Orison of healing]? and [[rebirth] on a hero?

Why would you have interupt skills on a backlines hero? And wouldn't they spam heal party to death?
No offense, but I need a build with an actually strategy that is efficient

Disable PS and micro it for optimal usage.

squishy's build is pretty close to what i use. heroes are very good with [[aegis] and terrible with [[heal party]. i don't take prot spirit on my heroes but i do take spirit bond.

Any hero uses interrupts amazingly well, making great energy management for a monk hero. I would definitely not give any hero rebirth. Ever. Unless you disable it, but still not worth it to me.

And about interupt, isn't it better for a hero to be set on passive to avoid any agro? If that's so either the interupt is useless or they dont have a weapon in hand (or something else entirely), which one is correct?

Any Mo/E with GoLE, decent condition removal, Aegis and HB/WoH should be fine. Just never roll Heal Party on a hero monk.

Also if you're good you shouldn't need any soft rezzes on your healers, just keep them disabled on another character who can spare the empty slot.

Protip: Use an N/Rt healer instead. Or you can try running an OoS Rit, but I'd stick with the N/Rt.

Eh, not mine. I like them ressing and they seem to do a good enough job for me.

If that's so either the interupt is useless or they dont have a weapon in hand (or something else entirely), which one is correct? Again, isn't really a problem to me. I like having the rupts for support while giving him energy. And avoiding aggro can be achieved by using a MM or just flagging them back at first. Also have problem with monk heroes running away to a point where they aren't in range to heal someone that needs it.

Raw heals:

[build=OwAT043A5Jj87m+b6WiNJuiGBA][/build]

Prot cleanup:

[build=OwAT0mHD5xMupbJ316RAxmITAA][/build]

Smite:

[build=OwAT443A5BuaPMI4V3K13lITAA][/build]

That's how my 3 monk heroes are set up. Healer works great; protter is good for areas with hex overdoses & decent heal henchies; smiter works meh because I don't feel like microing a Smiter's Boon build. Add runes to taste, disable Rebirth on both the protter and the smiter, and you should be good to go - at least, good enough to roll most PvE things.

Then again, the hero I take to supplement hench monks these days is Livia, so...

I use Squishy' build but with [[Patient spirit] instead of [[Dwayna's Kiss].
On the second hero I also switch [[Protective Spirit] with [[shield of absorption]].

This one -

[Smiter Monk;OwQUQEH/WoFpsTlUmhUe5DfA]

Edit: Actually I prefer this build, ever since Reversal of Damage triggers on Retribution, so the smiter needs a heal.

Compared to what i have seen most people give heroes i would prefer them to run this:

[build prof=mo heal=12+1+1 divine=12+1][glimmer of light][no skill][no skill][no skill][no skill][no skill][no skill][no skill][/build]
