What Support Monk Build Do YOU Use Most of the Time in GvG?

[Adslahnit]

After watching those Japan exhibition games in observer mode, I can clearly say that I saw mainly four types of GvG monks (well, five if you count THAT monk who used Aura of Displacement, Holy Strike, and Stonesoul Strike):

1.) Mo/Me Boon Prot
2.) Mo/Me Blessed Light
3.) Mo/Me Blessed Light Escaper
4.) Mo/any Air of Enchantment Smiter

Monk Flavors galore... anyway, which of these four builds do you use most of the time in GvG?

Blessed Escaper is definitely Mo/A. ;)
(Smiter is also usually Mo/E)

I'd say i usually play boon prot (mainly because i'm a lot better at this than BL), or a healer... because if refuse too believe healers are dead! :)

yeah...I'm a big fan of using blessed light along with assassin escape skills. Provides decent healing, protection, hex removal, self-defense, and some energy management (signet of devotion). My favorite part though is being able to teleport around like a ninja healer...It's so much fun kiting melee chars only to teleport away leaving them crippled

Mo/A blessed light is going to be more popular than Mo/Me blessed light because in GvG you need the flexibility to survive as the lone monk in a split situation. Mo/Me works better if your team build is specifically designed such that the monks don't need to split considering the mesmer skills allow you to heal longer and provide a bit more utility. I don't understand why boon prots are losing so much popularity as they are. They are just about the same power level as blessed lights in my opinion and one of each make a strong backline.

[Adslahnit]

Yeah, sorry, I meant Mo/A for Blessed Escaper.

I'm still playing Mo/Me boon prot. I have considered moving to other things but the monk backline my guild has been running has proven to be very successful.

I'm playing Mo/Me Blessed light monk. I think Boon is getting less popular as there are some pressure builds with NR running lately in gvg. And enchants are harder to cast then ;)

I play BL as i'm better at that them boon

I just recently using my monk in PvP and have played a good bit of Boon Prot and Blessed Light "OH FFS RUN AWAY" and I really like playing BLight.
