I kid you not. Here is a screen shot in Sorrow's Furnace of Lina the Protection Henchmen using Stregth of Honor and Watchful Spirit on me. I'm sure she did both, as on her article at http://www.guildwiki.org/wiki/Lina two skills were missing from her bar, two were unknown.

I suspect that she always has these cast on herself. Her name always has a yellow arrow next to it.

Has anyone else seen this before?

Those two spells come from the collector that trades you xp scrolls for enslavement stones.

I was capping Eviscerate. Actually, drops don't depend on levels. I've gotten drops down there from power leveling with henchmen at level 16.

A green warrior shield dropped for my level 16 E/mo once.

Yeah, I now realise it was the collector, but why spoil my fun? Molenin should be a henchmen with his Divine Smite combo

Well, see, Lina's job is to survive until everyone else is dead, then give you the thrilling, suspenseful experience of watching her attempt to rez you. She almost invariably fails, but that just makes her successes all the more heartwarming.

Yea, it's from the collector. He's a monk, gives warriors the Strength of Honor and if you don't run by too fast, sometimes gives everyone else the Watchful Spirit.

Lina is not a "nooby" protection healer, I actually prefer her over the regular healing monk, but mostly they're better than most player played monks. Of course you always try to befriend the actually good player monks so you can call on them at a moments notice!

Well, it would be pretty dumb to take 2 bonds (having no attribute points in the attribute for one of the skills) with no energy management, wouldn't it?

Has the AI of the monks change? It seems that it used to be that the monks would not rez someone if there were monsters nearby. Now they will run into the middle of a group and try to rez another hench while the monsters eat em up for lunch. It is so bad that I will rez the monk last just to keep them from their suicide mission.
The hench realy need a "stay" command.

The res AI has deteriorated over time. Every tweak to the AI makes healer henchmen worse and worse. It's kind of stopped my PvE playing.

why even bother henchies?
all they do is die or ruin your game/drops
go solo or with players instead
much more profit in it

there is one problem on that you see monks are actually on very high demands that is why we need to try the Hechman.
