*baps you all*
I must have bad PUG luck or something. Every single time I decide to go in a PUG with my Monk, I always land with the extremely un-co team. I thought it would be a good team judging by the class combinations but by the first battle, I knew we would fail.
~ Warrior/Monk - Used Smiting Prayers and Strength, relied on energy-based skills only, therefore had no energy. At least he had Warrior's Endurance, however he used it in a terrible way... when there were no monsters around.
~ Warrior/Elementalist - Used Fire Magic and Strength, again lost energy so fast it was insane. Had no adrenaline skills apart from something stupid which I can't remember.
~ Ranger/Monk - This guy was better than the others. Although relied on his pet a lot, he did a good job... apart from killing the Ghostly Hero by getting all the aggro to him. Had Heal Other which was good. Had no energy though which was bad.
~ Warrior/Monk - Decided a good combination of skills would be Power Attack, Orison of Healing, Heal Other and I believe some other energy-based skill. Not to mention his use of Mending and Hammer, therefore creating an empty gap where his energy should be. I believe he was the one whose health dropped rapidly after each hit. I presume he had Major/Superior Runes or basic armour.
~ Monk/Elementalist - I thought I had another Healer/Protector to help me keep the party alive. Wrong. He thought he could tank so he always claimed the aggro by leading the group. He was a Smiter Monk with spells like Symbol of Wrath, Bane Signet, Heal Party, Rebirth. Always drew unnecessary aggro, therefore making monsters swarm onto me and creating an empty gap where a Healer used to be. Rebirthed me in the middle of battle, surrounded by monsters.
~ Monk/Necromancer - Me. I think I had the only proper build. Woohoo go me.
I have to admit, I did have fun testing how long I could keep some of them alive.
The Monk's health dropped like there was no tomorrow so much, my energy was being drained at a freakish rate. I'd heal him back to full health from about 1/3 or 1/4 max hp, then it'd disappear in about 2 seconds. Drove me insane.
