Best Melee Solo Class?

[fischsemmel]

If you only have the 12ish k to spend on your monk, I assume that it could be better spent than on a fbss and nothing else. At least spend a couple thousand on some decent weapons and wu's and jewelry, and then worry about the fbss once you can make that money back or if you get lucky and find a great deal for one.

No haste item?

I've been thinking of making a melee alt. Have a wizard main and a low level mage I was leveling, but its too similar. Started a rogue but they are basically group dependent and I've been out of group-mode so long I don't even know where to go. I want to avoid hybrids, though ranger intruiges me a bit (just a bit). I did SK on live for 10 years and don't want to do that again... So I am thinking of making a monk myself...

Can I basically get a FBSS and go?

Nope, probably won't be able to afford an FBSS until my 40's. Levels 1-20 I just used my hands. Then I was able to afford a Wu's Quivering Staff. Them Dark Elf guards didn't stand a chance! As for whether or not you get an FBSS, it's your call, I personally would spend 1500 and get a full set of Wu's, 2 +55 HP rings, and a couple decent 1hb weapons like fighting batons or cane of the tranquil
