Monks are actually not excellent at it anymore. Content exists that requires it within the raid scene but for standard group pulling after the sneak/fd nerf, any class that can harmony/lull performs better.

The time it takes to fd split content is time wasted unless the content REQUIRES you to split it.

Even when split pulling was a thing I almost preferred to pull on my Bard because

1) Eye of Zomm Helm (more of a gimmick really, but can keep singing mana song and pull simultaneously so it works even though PITA). Places like SolB it works well.

2) Selos

3) Lul/mez

Shadow Knight can snare split now. Problem is FD has a long recast so when it f#cks up you are probably going to die. That's why necro has never really been a "pull" class because the FD fail rate/recast makes it an insta gib usually on a room break.

Monk definitely has a place, but its pretty hard to beat Bard IMO. Only reason Bards get a break is because the casters all want mana song pumping non stop.

Enchanters are excellent pullers if it wasn't for needing to sit to med. Chanters can break rooms better than anyone though.

I have actually got pretty good at pulling Mistmoore castle on my Druid, way more effective than it ever was on my monk
