The Monk uses holy energy to create a protected region on the ground for a few seconds that can not be bypassed by enemies.

Skill Design

When cast, this skill creates a large rune on the ground where the Monk is standing, with a small, Slow Time-like bubble shield surrounding the character. It seems to be impermeable to the movement of melee attackers, however it does not protect against long-ranged melee attacks. (A Fallen Overseer has enough range to hit the character standing in the middle, while regular Fallen cannot.)

It is unknown as to how this skill functions with ranged projectiles, flying enemies, or boss fights.

Skill Rank Table

Rank 1: 6 second impassible region.
Rank 2: 7 second impassible region.
Rank 3: 8 second impassible region. (A)
Rank 4: 9 second impassible region. (A)
Rank 5: 10 second impassible region. (A)

(A) = Assumed

Synergies

None known.

Skill Rune Effects

None known.

Development

Probably Inner Sanctuary.

Inner Sanctuary was first shown at BlizzCon 2009 as one of the originals when the Monk was unveiled. It wasn't needed in that demo, since the Monk was hugely powerful, but there may be more utility for it in the final game.

The skill was not seen afterwards, and apparently underwent a major graphical change, since this screenshot was released in early 2011 showing a protective skill that's thought to be Inner Sanctuary.
