Monk useless against Stoneskin

I was doing Manor and the final boss has adds that cast Stoneskin on boss. Now the boss has Stoneskin I do normal dps rotation and find out that my stances aren't changing, in fact nothing is happening when my skills do 0 damage. So I have to spam Bootshine until Stoneskin breaks off. This is gonna be Hilarius when pvp arrives all you have to do to beat a monk is apply Stoneskin to yourself, auto win. I hope this has been noticed already and will be a fixed soon. Monks already have a tough enough time keeping up buffs/dots without this issue.

It works both ways. When something takes 0 damage, the effects of that ability (usually) don't occur.
Take 0 damage from a Landslide that hit you? You don't get knocked back.
A mob shields all of the initial damage from your dot? The dot doesn't get applied.

Yea which is slightly different from a class reliant on rotations being unable to rotate.

I'm pretty sure monks get a purge.

And again someone talking about a class who has never played the class, our "purge" one ilm punch removes enchants/buffs, it dosnt work on anything pretty much except dulluhans enchant skill (i.e. one ilm punch is possibly the most useless skill in the game).

Perhaps it should work on stoneskin effect but dosnt because the skill is mitigated before the action of buff removal takes place... but that would be another bug.
And if we begin at the start one ilm punch is 2nd skill in a rotation (so even if it did work, which it does not) you wouldnt be able to use it anyway.

Can you imagine how disasterous this will be when pvp comes - if any shield-like spell stops monk rotations. In pve right now its pretty anoying on the few fights where it happens.
