An Elementalist/monk is not a monk.
If I wanted to play a support character I would have chosen Monk, I wouldn’t have chosen a power hungry, damage dealing Elementalist.
Yes, I chose Monk as my secondary profession. That was to keep myself alive while soloing, not so I could play nursemaid.
While we’re talking about playing nursemaid. It is not my responsibility to keep you alive if you decide to pull groups ( plural ) of 5 or 6 mobs.

Aggro radius is easily shown on the mini-map with a circle in the centre, I don’t care how well you think you can tank, if you go running through and collect all the creeps, they’re eventually gonna kill you and come for us Casters.

I’ve focused on AoE DoT Spells, but they need a stationary target. Normally I pull a creep, then move between his backup casters/healers, Firestorm the guy in the middle, Eruption, Symbol of Wrath, Eruption. Boom! If you pull the guy out of the area, Firestorm hits nothing but soil and I have to chase after firing off flares. Pointless!

Then, after making me run around using my weaker spells, you want me to rez you and restore your HP. Sod off.

Hehehe… ‘Restore your HP’.. sounds like my work… Press F10 to begin HP System Recovery!

Seriously though… not a monk!!
