Any sort of kiting setups will make it hard to do dungeons. Generally dungeons are where the best exp and loot can be found.
For fighting mobs toe to toe you need someone that can take and deal damage and then someone to keep them alive. Slows, buffs (including haste), heals and canni make the shaman tough to beat since they are so dynamic. A monk's decent melee dps and tanking make them an obvious partner. So...monk/shaman if you want to fight in dungeons. Lots of creative choices for kiting. | ||

There's really not much better in this game from 1-60 than a monk and shaman combo. Obviously, we could get into specifics of what you can and can't do at high-end with that duo, but for XPing and dungeon stuff, generally speaking, this combo is among the best in the game. | |||

Throwing it out there because I wasn't exactly positive when I rolled a Monk, but looking it up, the Monk damage mitigation change (hooo boy do I ever remember this causing much butthurt) didn't come until October 16th, 2002.
Luclin launched December 4th, 2001; so if you were wondering if at a later date your Monk would tank like a "wet paper bag" as it was so affectionately described to me years ago, rest assured this will not be the case. Unless the developers deem otherwise. Also Iksar Shaman cannot equip the racial Kunark armor. Pretty sure their regen is the same as the Troll's, but there are armor limitations to consider if they mean anything to you. http://wiki.project1999.org/index.ph...ced_Bone_Armor | ||

You can also roll a druid and a wizard.
Druid gets Snare at level 1, Quad nuke at 5 and the wizard gets his Quad at 8.

Ikar monk + troll shaman or duid.
The shaman allows more things (more places open for the duo to perform effectively) but the DS of the druid, plus his tracking, snaring and tping abilities will ne like a gulp of fresh air. Depends what you want for your duo: more freedom or the possibility to take down bigger targets. Nagash/Petitpas | ||

Before the charm nerf I woulda said a chanter with +cha gear and cleric. More viable at higher level for sure, 50-60 is nice with this combo.

Mage / Cleric. Met my Mage friend when I was level 24 and he was 26. I'm now 49 and he's 51, and all we've done is duo.
Destroyed Najena, SolA, SolB, Runnyeye, Mistmoore and Droga. VERY good combo! Earth pet is a fantastic tank with his root, and while you may not be able to avoid every sticky situation, you're both able to gate. Whoever rolls as the Cleric, carry a stack of Malachite in the event the Mage dies and you don't! This way she can still make pets for the CR if you need one!
