That's a tricked-out pony. So many combo spells, so little real stuff. I have seen this build in CA alot and it really just complicates things more than makes anything easier or more consistent over a regular healer or CA Prot Monk. 1 Rend Enchantments and it's bye-bye Monk.

Not really. You should be full energy most of the time, so if you get rended then just wait 15 seconds and recast.

Oh, just 15 seconds. No one could possibly die in that amount of time.

The point is it's a combo fest that I guess appeals to players of Mortal Kombat where you just constantly press buttons and feel accomplishment.

Offering of Blood easily replaces the combo.

These monks are all over arena, and while they can keep themselves alive pretty well (barring a Rend or Lingering), they fail miserably at healing the rest of the team.
