made it clear that the bell is just a potential rune effect

}}
This skill is best known for one of its potential rune effects, in which the [[Monk]] summons a large mystical bell, which he then strikes with his fist. The bell, charged with [[holy]] energy, smashes into and through enemies in a straight line. This was demonstrated in a Blizzcon panel, while the actual skill has not yet been properly seen.
==Skill Rune Effects==
One possible key [[runestone]] effect is known, which causes this skill to summon a huge bell, like the sort that hang outside of Eastern Monasteries. The Monk punches this bell, sending it blasting through enemies which it smashes out of the way like a fast-rolling boulder.
The bell itself threw some players off at first, but bells are a mainstay throughout temples in history. It is an easy association to make with a monk. What is curious, however, is that the skill description from BlizzCon 2010 for Wave of Light does not mention the bell at all. The player who chooses this skill may have a bit of a surprise on their hands.
Because Wyatt Cheng did not say if the skill was runed in the presentation, it is not certain if the bell is a runestone effect or not. Since the bell is not mentioned in the known skill description, it is possible that the fact that it is indeed a rune's effect was omitted from the skill's unveiling by mistake.
