Invincible Monk

A Mo/* build that involves dropping your life down to as low as it can go (55 when using a -50 life offhand item) and using the skill Protective Spirit to reduce damage to 10% of maximum health. This means that regardless of the hit power, the monk takes only 5 damage per hit. Since each arrow of regeneration on a life bar = 2 life/second the monk then maintains regeneration spells on himself to offset the hits and keep his health max.

This build is extremely susceptible to enchantment removal, stacked health degeneration, and to a lesser extent interrupts. Some variations include Spell Breaker as a counter against enchantment removal and health degeneration from hexes, but even with Arcane Echo and enchentment various prolongment, the gap in coverage of Spell Breaker is still dangerously long. Thus Invincible Monk builds are usually tailored towards areas with no Mesmers or Necromancers.
