This is misinfo. Intensify lasts for 6 rounds or whatever regardless of the "current combat" or whatever.

See above. You have to wait out intensify for this to work.

This is a particularly annoying way to fight a monk. Only effective to a point though.

No one casts wrath anymore.

This is good info.
