Can anyone explain why this was necessary? Monks with normal gear can't even solo at my level well enough to make it better than grouping.
original EQ devs designed the game so that grouping was necessary.

in other words... shit's fucking classic

How do u figure?
Can't solo anything. FD mechanics are annoying as hell. And once you get to raiding you're expected to be the workhorse, basically. You're running around the whole time working your ass off the whole raid while everyone else alt tabs and faps. And dpsing consists of pressing auto attack and kick.

I'm regularly hitting for 2 damage with an SoS offhand, is that supposed to be possible?

I tried to solo a L51 chokidai in Chardok and had to bail out and use my strings - and I had full cleric/shaman buffs. Before I could solo NG without any buffs at all. In general it felt like mobs were tougher/more resistant.

No idea how classic it is; I have yet to find the thread with the posted data.

The new increased FD blur chance is really nice though.

Monk not being able to solo in kunark gear?

Sounds about right.

Add some velious gear, and will be different.

AC probably needs a boost across the boards.

monks were never supposed to be the solo class they are today. remember when intimidate landed more often than a necro chain casting fear? i solo'd from 24 to 35 on half naked iksar monk because i would just chain intimidate giants in WW. best part was the fear also snared for some reason. shit was lulzy. good to see monks getting settled down before they own everything in velious.
