I agree with Crede, don't sleep on the Blood Ember Gauntlets. They are surprisingly helpful while leveling. I also found the gauntlets would land a lot easier on mobs with high resist than normal spells would. Not sure if there is some kind of hidden resist modifier on clickies vs regular spells. That being said, it's not the end of the world if you went Iksar or anything like that.
Shadowknights are uniquely positioned among all the melee classes for their ability to solo well 55+ with minimal gear. A monk can solo very well 55+ but only really once they get epic/fungi. I was ablo to kill mobs my higher level and better geared monk wouldn't be able to kill because of their high HP pool. High HP mobs on a Shadowknight just means you might need to recast fear/snare an extra time.
