If you switch to Conjurer, cast Protect, and then switch to another class, THE PROTECT BUFF WEARS OFF.

You can't use it as a cross class skill BECAUSE NOT ALL CLASSES CAN USE PROTECT.

Overlooked that sorry.

But since we're talking about damage mitigation, Monks have a stance for that don't they?

Here's the thing, when you switch to Fists of Earth and gain a damage reduction you lose your increased ability to deal damage with Fists of Fire. The end result is you take less damage but the mob you're fighting takes longer to kill which generally results in you being at a similar level of health when you kill your target anyway.

While both stances have their uses there's really little point in using Fists of Earth solo unless you're fighting multiple opponents.

Just switch between the 2 stances. If you see your enemy start a high-damage attack, switch to Fist of Earth and then back to Fist of Fire.

To be fair, I was talking about enemy auto attack damage. Any high damage attack I'd just step out of the range of rather than stance dance.
