Hence, why I said high-level power level is enchanter dominated.

And even if it is chain kill territory. Enchanters are killing two mobs at a time.

I know this isn't exactly scientific, but my most recent power-level bout, I was able to keep everything in Efreeti constantly dead while powerleveling (tash helps a lot for nuking down low mobs). This includes the side trap room.
Even with your regen and pumice (or a SoN), I don't think a monk has the sustainability to keep all that dead (again, not even factoring in keeping your partners hp up if need be). And that camp isn't even close to ideal for an enchanter.

As I said, I think monks may have a shot at being top dog for mid-level powerleveling. You sound like you know what you're doing, and I am considering using you for my warrior some time.
If enc can only do all of efreeti in one cycle, maybe they aren't near monk or shaman. Pre epic, I'd keep all of efreeti + all of bnb down with a low 50s monk or rogue.
