Harmonious Balance or Inevitable Dominion?

[Darth_Sizzle]

I think (hope) I spelled those right...

anyway

I have a level 6 Monk currently on the path of Inevitable Dominion. Looking at the enhancements, I don't see anything that expands on this (other than the negative energy strike). Harmonious Balance has enhancements that allow you to: Remove Curse, Remove Blindness, Lesser Restoration, Raise Dead, and I think something else (remove disease maybe). Now, none of these enhancements for Harmonious Balance seem worth it to me since I can just use potions and/or clickies instead. However, the healing shield thing looks pretty cool. Anyway, that's my take. What is the consensus among those who have capped Monks? Is there more to this than what I've seen?

Link to a recent discussion about "dark monks", and some of the problems with that line.

Currently, and this is just a stat I'm pulling out of my arse, but I'd estimate that 90% of monks go with the Light path.

I really can't imagine being without the tons of little 1-2 hp heals from Fists of Light, or the larger bursts from Healing Ki. I'm only level 7 tho. As you mentioned, I just carry potions for the other effects.
