paladin is way more gear dependent than a monk. Monk with epic/haste/fungi will beat pally in every way
paladin with that same gear will be like 40% as good

Back when push interrupt and combat bind wound were possible? Or sneak pulling and all/all soulfires? When knight 2h dmg was gimped? 100% agreed with the general sentiment, monk > paladin. Now though? Idk. No one class beats another class "in every way". That's the beauty of EQ and the imbalanced state of its classes. Different levels, zones, and encounters make for situational usefulness where one class might shine, with the other standing in their shadow, and vice versa. With the exception of narandi crown, paladin gear is cheap af and tuna/vulak weaps are no joke. Monk's item list is much more extensive/expensive in terms of pp and dkp, even if better overall.
Paladin doesn't need haste with root joust. It doesn't need fungi with dwbp. It doesn't need epic with any of the high dmg/dly velious drops.
