Yeah, but enc have other duties as well. Haste, rune occasionally, root?, calm? I'm not familiar enough with enc PL to know the exact technique. Perhaps with mem blur, they don't even need to break and recharm each mob. I certainly wouldn't put money against an enc without knowing how their PL works and actually witnessing it. And that's really the reason for posting in the EC threads. It wasn't because we were competing for business. I rarely PL anymore and always have plenty willing to pay for it. It just seems ignorant to claim to have the fastest PL on the server when you have no to limited experience with other classes' PL.

Orruar I haven't PL'd much in the past month due to to RL being busy as hell but I used to quite frequently. Everyone I have PL'd has told me flat out that I provide the fastest PL they've ever had. I'm basing my claim on that. I'm not just talking about 1 or 2 random people telling me that - I'm talking a good 15-20 people or more. These are people who have purchased a PL from others in the past.
I agree 100% that an ench or a shaman can be a very effective powerleveler but
what you're discounting about me is that I'm definitely not you're normal run of the mill monk PL. There are no other melee classes on the solo artist challenge list. The reason for this is 3 fold:
A) Monks are OP compared to other melee.
B) I'm *arguably* the best geared monk on the server. I also happen to have some skill - maybe not the best on the server but I'm probably up there. 2nd in BoTB; loosing by 22hp to first place is a good argument for that (I'd like to compete against adrianna in a PL contest too but she's never on anymore. Plus I know with C below I'd get her - unless she found one to borrowed)
C) Pre-Nerf Fungi Staff. No other monk I know is triple stacking self regen. This is the actually the biggest factor of the 3 listed. 52 a tick with just under 1100 ac is huge when it comes to factoring a consistent kill rate. Add in the fact that I do fairly high DPS - 5-10% under our guild rogues consistently - and this makes for a very strong, very consistent powerlevel.
Not to mention you're not looking at the majority of classes being powerleveled. There is no real way that you can power level an ench, mage, necro, wiz, bard, cleric, shaman or druid faster than I can. Pet classes can't use their pets or they get crappy xp during the PL. So that leaves 6 out of 14 classes - War, Rog, Monk, Ranger, Paladin, SK - in which its arguable who can provide a faster PL.
Also with a good monk PLing they can attack down to 1 or 2% and then FD - providing constant DPS (I do around 90-95 dps without buffs or disc). For you to PL you have to do 49% or less dmg; the person being PLed has to do 51% or more. This means you are in essence capped at how fast you can powerlevel in relation to how fast the person you're PLing can kill - like you said a shaman PL is much more dependent on the person being power leveled. Therefore I would conceivable add a paladin and SK to the list of 8 classes I am 100% sure I can PL faster as their DPS is lower than other 4 melee.
I'm 100% sure I can PL 10/14 of the classes faster; the other 4/14 classes I am reasonably certain my PL would be faster. But I'm not 100% sure. Therefore I put this wager offer out there for anyone who wants to step up and see. I'd assume you'll choose one of the 30% of the classes that I'm not certain about.
It therefore seems ignorant to me that you would post on someone's EC thread that you're a faster PLer when it would only apply to 30% of the classes - and even then you're not even sure yourself if it would be faster for those 4 classes.
I await your wager and the challenge.
