Preface

I'm far from being a backline specialist, but I do enjoy monking every now and then. This Arena Monk is a pretty solid setup in my humble opinion. I only have a PvP Monk so no perfect gear either. The main weakness of the skill bar is Condition Control. While Mending Touch has the great property of removing 2 conditions, the touch-range requirement is quite a hassle sometimes as well as its inability to deal with condition spamming such as BSurge/Oppressive Gaze.

Equipment

If I had perfect gear I would run this

• Disciple Insignias on Chest and legs
• Survivor on the Rest
• Q7/15 AL Tactics Shields
• 40/40 heal
• 40/20/20 Prot staff
• Spear of Fortitude + Tactics Shield
• 20/20 Heal High set
• I like having a daze rune personally (and Daze Shield in inventory)
• Bunch of vitae runes will do it other than that.

Usage

• Self-explanatory
• Pre-veil 2/3 people on your staff set before the game begins (Frontline, you and/or other physical(s)). If pre-veiling was useful before the game, then do it during the game.
• Have the decency to cast Guardian on your allies when they need it.
• Don't accept baseless flaming directed towards you, most RA players suck hard and do not even know that. Point that fact out, a good monk can't carry a team of noobs very long.
• Make sure you cover your pre-veil with guardian and/or patient spirit when the veiled ally(ies) are at risk of being enchant stripped.
• Fake Cast Cure Hex
