Simple combination of the Healer and Bonder to retain damage output. You need a decent monk to pull this off. Headpiece swapping action on the monk is key. You should be able to clear the place out as fast as a 5-man group using the momentum of minions.

Utilize headpiece swapping. Use a Superior protection headpiece while you put up bonds, then swap to superior healing.

This build will get you killed horribly half of the time. Plenty mobs can stripe enchantment and there is no way in a big battle the monk can keep up with the heal AND re-bond. Also notice how newb this monk build is - there is no dwayna's kiss for monk and no dolyak for stance *shake head*. Here is the real time-tested 4-man SF group:
Monk
Healing 12+4)
Prot 11+4 (only use +4 when initial bonding)
Favor 8
Blessed Signet
Essence Bond
Life Attunement
Life Bond
Heal Area / Healing Touch (depends on preference, elite monks would use heal area since they can position themselves to heal allies as well)
Rez Signet
Dwayna's Kiss
Word of Healing / Healing Hands (again, Word of Healing is superior if you know how to use it)
Tank - any stance tank with full cycle of stances
Must have: Dolyak plus any 15 second stance to complete the cycle
The above bulid has balthazar + adrenaline stance, I don't recommend it because when you getting hit by 10+ guys and someone strip you enchant, you are pretty much screwed for half of your stance cycle.
SS - must have shiver
MM
That's it

if you dont want do re-bond, use spellbreaker wih blessed aura and 20% longer encht. no u dont have to worry about taskmasters, wardens abd dark binders.
dont use essence bond as a bonder. blathasars spirit on yourself is the better option.
