Well, to everyone who has these expectations defense, pulling on this server isn't that hard in pick up groups. Any class can pull for exp with their face if the group has at least one person with root. The only time pulling is hard here is when you're pulling dragons and coordinating with other pullers simultaneously.

Go out there monks and let your group do the heavy lifting.

While this is pretty much true, groups just like to see the monk pulling if there is a monk. I’ve never stomped my feet about it because I like pulling

Just duo/trio when you group and crawl thru dungeons like the hole. This is more fun for everyone, easier pulling and the best xp.

im thinking of this, maybe just do small groups of duos and trios

OP, a lot of classes are easy to twink/solo. If you don’t wanna pull, go ranger. Still good dps, a lot of utility, and can be twinked pretty easily. Can easily solo till 50 with a fungi/fbss/woodsmans staff. 50+ with panic animal fear is doable too.

i excluded ranger because it's not too much different than a war, and on top of that ranger has additional dependency on mana regen vs. monk, and monk arguably tanks/dps better than ranger

rogue is out of the question for being more difficult to solo

Less so with monks possibly... there is a lot of monks (at least when i was leveling one) and often had groups with 2 sometimes 3 monks

However that being said I agree with most people in this thread.... don't play a class half ass if a huge part of the class is against your playstyle... if you don't like to pull because it takes a lot of constant input then don't play a puller class and find something more in line with how you wish to play.... like warrior

Its like playing a enchanter but never wanting to charm because its too much work.... might as well play a magician at that point

the thing with chanter is, i never see ppl blast them when they don't charm.

[wagorf]

examples such as clerics who dont heal, wars who dont tank are meaningless

monks that dont pull is debatable - hence the folks commenting on bard/ranger/sk/other classes arguably pulling just as good or better in certain situations

Thats cos, while charming is largely optimal, an enchanter can still juggle half a dozen important and time consuming jobs instead of charming.

A monk that isn't pulling is juggling his auto attack (and hopefully a kick button).

That said, I've noticed many non-pulling monks rarely launch their special attacks.
