RoF?

I been hearing a lot of monks saying RoF is the best skill ever. What is the skill?

Reversal of Fortune. And they're correct.

Typically, you can just plug an acronym you see in-game into wiki's search box and it will give you a list of possible meanings.

gw.gamewikis.org, or the official wiki that you can access by clicking GW Wiki at the top of the main www.guildwars.com website.

reversal of fortune, really nice prot skill

Thanks didn't know that! I didn't know rof was that good... i dont see many monks in pve use it though

A lot of bad PvE monks don't use protection prayers (instead just using PvE skills and other gimmicks). That and prot spirit are awesome skills. If you think about it, at 14 prot it prevents 76 damage and then heals for 76 damage (assuming it stops a max hit), which is really kinda the same as healing for 152 damage... for 5 energy every 2 seconds and a quick cast time.

Why would they when the pve HB bar is the best bar EVA!!

But sadly tho a lot of pve monks dont know what prot skills do.

RoF is a good skill, only if you use it right...
not spam it or its gonna heal for 10 dmg wand attacks

Yeah, if you want to study up on Monking effectively (better than the average "HB monk LFG" kind of guy) there are some detailed guides and suggestions down in the Monk forum. It's under The Campfire section, one of the stickies there has all the info you need for understanding how to make a good Monk build and play it well.

Good luck!

Need to time RoF or it wont heal for it's intended amount.

Life sheath+RoF+Selfless=:]

I wouldn't suggest Selfless to starting monks. It encourages spell-spamming. I'd rather recommend a single energy gain skill like Power drain for the more advanced, or GoLE for the less advanced. Both of these increase the need for field awareness. Power drain by having to watch enemy casts and interrupt them (which also makes you more able to preprot), and for GoLE to give a good return you need to estimate which spells you'll need next.

Anyway, concerning RoF: it can be both the best and worst skill on your bar, because it's situational. If you don't watch out, it'll just hit that 10 damage wand autoattack instead of the 90 damage spell right before or after it. For a good monk, it's a great skill. For a bad monk, not so much.

Also dont forget about divine favor. It heals for additional 30-ish hp every time you cast it.
