Returning Player from Pre-Velious - Monk Looking for Duo

[Vanesh]

Hello all! My name's Vanesh and I have not played this game in over 13 years, but I'm quite happy to see this community thriving! I'm ready for some nostalgia and I'm looking at creating a Monk of some kind. Most likely an Iksar as I never got to play an Iksar Monk, my main back in the day being a Human Monk.

I was wondering if anyone had any advice for a returning player, things that have changed, points to keep in mind, etc. Also, if anyone is looking to start a character some time soon and wants to group up, then send me a message!
