Archive:Mo/W Arenas Stanced Diverter

The Stanced Diverter is a ta build that's mainly focusing on one thing: countering hex pressures. Since most of the teams are hex teams, this build is a big counter against it, using the monk elite Divert Hexes. Therefore, this monk has a good survivability and healing power even without using it's elite against for example pressure builds. This build isn't an easy build, it's not recommended for players who are new in monking since it's energy managmenent isn't very good.
