Yeah originally my first thought was "Def. a Monk". But then when I considered there is no Iksar regen, no Fungi, bandages only heal up to 50% until Kunark. There isn't very much gear in general for a Monk at this stage of the game. It started to seem like Monk soloing is probably pretty dang rough.
Not that Ranger is all that much better, but there is at least some basic gear that can make it much easier on you, even just Banded and Short Sword of Mornin for example, those alone would probably be a pretty big boost to both AC and DPS. Then take into consideration being able to Snare/Root + Bow down mobs, and it's starting to sound a bit better. Of course bowing down things will take arrows, and take longer to kill a mob, but the plus side is there is pretty much no downtime, yea?
I don't know, I've never played a Ranger passed like lvl 10 before, and the only Monk I've played was a twinked out Iksar on Blue with Fungi and all. So I just wanted to hear some opinions from some of you guys who probably have much more experience than I do at these classes, in all stages of the game.
But now I'm beginning to lean towards Ranger tbh.
