Monk advice in pvp

I replaced true strike with one Ilm punch on my bar for pvp, at the very least it shaves protect off :p

Protect is useless in PvP considering defense. It's only used as a shield for other buffs against, for example, one ilm punch.

Oh I get that it sucks, I'm just saying that I use one Ilm because that's usually the least of the effects it strips. That's good value for a small potency loss.

And when it removes Aetherflow or raging strikes it's just delicious.

I didn't even mention you in my post...? What made you think I was targetting your statement? xD

But yeah as far as monk goes, just stay with your group and roll with them. Try to target casters and healers. Save your shoulder tackle for when you've been hit with fluid aura or any other push-back. Weapon throw on sprinters and you'll do fine.

Yeah, I'm doing well now, so one last question to wrap this up.

Where would you spend points? I have upgrade 1 and 3 on axe kick (skipped the 30 potency increase), all 3 on somersault, one on purify and one on weapon throw (shorter cooldown)

I'm at rank 31, so I get another next rank. Suggestions?

The potency upgrades really worth more than the cooldown timer and effect buff? Was planning on fetter ward one and two next, then maybe the str buffs.
