The bonding section seems to imply that all Bonders run Life Bond. Considering that lately Life Barrier bonders without an actual bond are seeing use(in GvG, at least), that should probably me changed. --Edru viransu//QQ about me 06:36, 5 August 2007 (CEST)

Added a little tid bit on WoH since there wasn't one. It's a special skill to address, so I had it separate of the others.--Relyk 03:53, 11 December 2007 (CET)

Anyone consider monk trainers using Mesmer Primaries? Thats usually how I figure out the best skill stack setups for my play, is that If I don't understand a build, I run it as a mesmer primary with Fast Casting replacing Divine Favor. Swap out skills or bash around untill it works. When you flip back over to the monk side, you are a WHOLE lot better at it. Increases the learning curve I guess when you remove the powerhouse of Divine Favor. 76.185.213.202 04:57, 14 May 2008 (EDT)
- There's been lots of suggested ways of training people to monk, but in my experience, nothing is as effective as just getting a real build and going and using it. --

- Maybe even running the Monk without divine favor if that's the way you want to go about it. Using FC is probably going to get you used to the spells going off faster than they actually do. The best way is probably to go into RA and try and keep those people alive while everyone on the other team tries to feed you your own viscera. I've been doing it for about a week and I think I'm developing a nervous tick. - PANIC!

- I've been monking in RA for like 3 or 4 months now. I keep us alive unless we get pressured too much, or I got dazed on me and this ranger is camping me and stuff like that. Anyhow, I still suck a lot at monking in TA, dispite my practice in RA. ɟoʇuɐʌʎʞɔıɹ 05:28, 14 May 2008 (EDT)

- No. It's a program that you write (not as hard as it sounds, its just writing a few lines of text into a notepad document), so that you auto-weapon swap. For example, the one I used did nothing at all most of the time, but when I held down shift as I used a skill, it wouls swap to the appropriate weapon set for me. --Tab Moo 05:57, 14 May 2008 (EDT)

Is it worth explaining about how if you use a high set to get a cast off and swap back to shield or 40/40, then despite having "0" energy, you regen at 4 pips so when you swap back to high to cast again you have more energy than if you just stayed in the high set? That was pretty concise, huh? - PANIC!
