I was wondering what skills do u use to interrupt monk bosses such as Yaks other then using mesmers skill. Lets take Yak's Mark of Proctection for example. Personally i think elementalist's maelstorm do a great job for interrupting 10s.
I was wondering if there is a better way for a warrior to interrupt monk bosses. Since mark of proctection has only a cast time of 1s, and a warrior's disrupting chop, savage slash etc usually takes more than 1s to swing the weapon, i find it hard to interrupt using a warrior.
Can someone give me some opinions to interrupting with a warrior for such low casting time spells? I am a W/Mo by the way.
Interrupting Monk Bosses with warrior?

Distracting Blow - Melee Attack
Swipe your weapon at the target, doing no damage but disrupting the target's current action (and the actions of foes adjacent to your target).
Skull Crack {Elite} - Melee Attack
If this attack hits while target foe is casting a spell, that foe is Dazed for 15 seconds.
You're not going to find much in the monk secondary (bane signet maybe?) for interruption, just not a monk thing. Among the warrior skills, they come with waiting for your next swing. Above are a couple other options, still have to wait for a swing though.
Axe and Sword both attack every 1.33 seconds, if I recall correctly, so it's not that tough to interrupt a 1 second cast. Just be waiting for it, finger hovering over the button, and hit it when you see the cast start. Takes a little practice, but you'll get it.

Pin him up against a wall or cliff edge and he won't cast any spells at all

Distracting Blow
I use this and it works quite well. I wait until he casts mark of protection and useit on that, as well as a few orisons if I can

Of course, if you're playing with a team and not just henches, you can always look for a ranger or mesmer interruptor, or look for a necro to strip the enchantment.
