    I'd keep Awareness for upper content if you're taking big hits with no other CDs available (you're dependent on Stoneskin and Lustrate, Virus, Soil, Eye, etc.), on the off-chance that the crit would split you two there. Outside of that, it's nothing great. Mob crit chance is around 5-8%, I think, so it's really only a 1.7-2.7% damage taken reduction that's reliable in that in prevents one-shots and otherwise functions like Featherfoot. Featherfoot's total mitigation will definitely outdo Keen Flurry though (15% chance of 100% mitigation (~15% total, unreliable) vs. 40% chance of 20-25% mitigation (~8-10% total, mostly unreliable)). Second Wind can be decent with Convalescence and Berserk (since Berserk increase Atk Pwr and SW is based off Atk Pwr) but is generally of little use otherwise. The mitigation from KF or FF will probably do more for you outside of lowest-tier dungeons.

    I like Flash for the pacification duration, a bit of TP relief, and to AoE without losing combo. You can go ahead and lose it in some fights though, if you're getting Army, have no adds, need no minuscule threat boosts, etc.

    Usually any time I'd pop Mantra a Monk already has for 4x the effect...
