Thanks for all the info! I have 2 questions for you though!
1) If your SK was average twinked (6-7k worth of gear, a Mithril 2 Hander weapon). How much closer in soloability would it be to your Monk?
and
2) You mentioned Monks Bind Wound was better than the SKs? Whats the difference between them?

Like someone said 2 SK caps vs monks. Yes Lifetaps are nice but no where near mana efficiency.
If the SK is twinked with Mt2h yeah I think It would pull closer to the monk. Some things to consider. Monks can split and fight w/o needing to move/kite and so able to do nice high ZEM dungeons. The SK truly needs to be able to fear kite. Which limits your camps you can do. Truly some areas SKs make it seem ez Fear kiting, but at same time even twinked our dps is lack luster compared to a monk. Our spells are great for utility but that is it, our dots our like lvl 12 necro dots. So killing slower then monk means your taking the same amount of dmg. Which monk generally recovers faster. Again tricks for SKs, is Life tap random greens if able, but then your mana starving yourself. Though SK can wear rubi BP if you currenlty have one(which I got mine on sk at 35 it helped, but trust me still doen't help enough)
Info on dmg My souleech BiS Planar geared SK vs Planared geared Monk the dmg isn't even comparable, I used to PL on SK all time for friends/guildies, Monk is gotta be 5x more effiencnt, taking less dmg, not mana starved, and self heals. Its insane the difference.
Also FYI if making SK plz pick DE(High int which SKs later on need the most, plus can self bind with ring of dead or Orge easier to cap 255 str super early, can carry more as your leveling aka free finesteel those flimsy wizzys cant carry, plus Frontal stun immunity people can say what they want. But when your tanking a planar mob or say Fire giants and need to FD split them, getting stunned while trying to FD. Can greatly increase your chance of dying(enjoy that xp penalty)
