Go like Bard or Rogue.

After playing a monk, a warrior is simply a monk with more expensive gear requirements who has a weaker kick, doesn't pull, does less damage, and lives in fear of constantly joining the CH purple club.

It's basically a one-trick pony melee with few to zero button mashing options to keep things exciting. The ranger has jolt, the monk has feign. the rogue has evade, and if there is a pally or SK involved, they didnt need you to tank their XP group in the first place. When i needed essence emeralds for my necro i didn't even blink deleveling the warrior from 52 to 46. Never missed it, and I did my fair share of main tanking back in the day. I had loads of fun leveling a ranger up to 52, but it's for sure an acquired taste and requires buying a ton of items that are ranger/dps melee specific.

You sink 50k into the rogue for the epic, but with the bard you sink 60 or whatever into the xferrable fungi tunic and you can slack on getting jboots right away (you'll get em eventually for soloing). Bard is as non-committal as it gets. That would be my choice. I can't imagine too many scenarios where you would be killing anything and not just be sitting their thinking 'man i could just be tanking this on my monk and killing it twice as fast".
