Equipment

• Survivor's Armor.
• 30hp 20/20/20% Enchanting Protection Staff.
• High Energy Set. ( 30/-2)

Usage

• Choose a gate NPC to enchant, on Orange and Purple Gates the Elementalist is usually the best, on the Green Gate the Mesmer can sometimes make a better target against spell casters.
• Stand as far back as you can to cast spells on that NPC and start spamming with Air of Enchantment.
• Make sure you land an enchantment on top of Air of Enchantment and Protective Spirit before a Siege Turtle hits them.
• Only cast Protective Spirit when it ends or if you have reached full energy.
• Cast Air of Enchantment as soon as it has recharged, be careful about landing it just before a siege attack.
• Even while spamming all your 5 energy skills continuously you will still regain energy.
• Because you can fairly successfully protect a gate on your own without help, a second monk might be better off healing you to allow you to do your job.

Counters

• Enemy team attacking you with spells through the wall (eg Backfire).
• Well of Profane.
• Scourge Enchantment.

Variants

• Cheap enchantment spells - Shield of Absorption, Guardian, Vigorous Spirit, Healing Seed or Watchful Healing.
• Different hex removal spells - Cure Hex or Reverse Hex.
• Consider Healing Touch if you are concerned about self healing.
• Spell Shield and possibly Glyph of Swiftness if you want partial immunity to spells.
