Best solo melee class?

I was inspired to make a shaman on live because they could torpor facetank cliff golems so I don't think that's going away.

With reverse charming and just parking stuff around with root or mez I think you'll still be able to do most of the current stuff, it will be slower and more annoying though and it will make CRs a lot more difficult in some cases.

If they ever mess with charm stability that could be a big blow.

SK twink gear is more expensive than monk though. CoS + Narandi Crown makes SK one of the most expensive twinks even if you don't "need" pegi cloak.

You don't need either. They are great items and you should get them, but an SK on a budget can deprioritize those. Blood Ember Clickies are going to save you a lot of mana already if you use them often. A post-nerf circlet of shadows is still fine for most invis scenarios. If you need instant invis after FD just bring a few Ring of Shadows.

It's really not a big deal question. Farm dkp, dump about half a year of it into a lvl 5 melee and anything is easy.

Very fancy. Thx!

That character name hurts my immersion.

Gladimir clearly should be a a Sucko Gnight (Shadow Knight).

Thank you for your attention on this matter.

A lot of people here saying a whole lot but the answer once again is very simple:

Monk. If you want to breeze to 50 you require 3 items. Fungi, haste, 28/30 29/30 or 19/20 2hb.

Much easier to obtain than full skyshrinr armor and all this other no drop nonsense people are talking about

My monk not only absolutely smashed it to 40 with just some bristle silk armour and a WQS, but they also (on the very rare occasion they died) able to fight their way back to their camp better naked on a CR than my other melees could do while geared.

Monk, especially iksar, is just crazy good in the early levels. She still kicks more ass than most my 52s did, even with basically just a (rediculously easy to acquire) epic and some crystalline silk armour....
