===Nerfed Post-Release===
This skill was considerably overpowered upon release, and was nerfed in a patch a week after release.[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/diablo-iii-recent-hotfix-list] That "hotfix" lowered the bonus healing for 3 seconds after the cast from 4x to 2x, as well as nerfing the benefits from . [[Boon of Protection]] was also nerfed and eventually replaced by [[Boon of Inspiration]].
The main problem with this and some other Monk defensive effects was the possibility of a party of four Monks repeatedly casting them in a coordinated cycle. This could provide essentially infinite protection, as the 3 second bonuses after each casting, rotated between four monks, effectively negated the 12 second cooldowns built into the skill recasting timers.
