Having twinked a ranger, a monk, a warrior, and now an SK, I'm having the most fun on the SK.
Monk is dope, but there's a bazillion iksar monks on p99. You're not REALLY in demand unless you've got 1mpp in monk gear for fancypants pulling, like orb, bracer, holgresh beads, etc. but it's still fun to play and melt stuff doing dungeon crawls with a shaman - a monk's best friend. I lack the monk skills to be considered a 'good' monk without all the toys, so I dropped him just before epic.
I got my epic on Ranger, which was coo, but Ranger gets a bit frustrating in any dungeon that matters because the 'versatility' of a Ranger is really lost indoors. They are super fun, pretty good dps, and not really overabundant (like the monk). Tracking is cool, esp for earning casual DKP or farming certain mobs. If you can get BFG and Haste cloak from Sky, ranger would be SUPER fun, but that's a time sink if you've got a bunch of alts (like me). I also like seeing dank Critical Hits, which happens often 50+ on ranger.
Warrior - super fun, super reliant on groups, super reliant on tons of gear and time. A badass warrior, as many will tell you, is, like, the ultimate badass. Aside from Detoxx, a monk (?), who hit 7k hp apparently.
SK - The split-pulling abilities are there, indoors and out, albeit not as efficient as Monk or Ranger. The tanking abilities are there, obv not as efficient as end-game raider Warriors, but again, that's not my daily play. I also don't feel like I NEED TOYS, really, like I do on ranger and monk and warrior. Snap aggro, there. Snare, there. FD, there. Pet for fun, there. Big hits with 2h weapons, there. Solid ratio 1h weapons, there (but no DW). Sword-and-board looks, there. Plate class baddassery, there. Fairly simple (though kinda shit) epic, there. Competition for knight-specific raid loot, not as gnarly as monk or caster loot.
Plus, you're a dark knight.
