I forgot that, even after the ability prune, monks are still awesome.  I miss stealing and holding other peoples weapons, but the rest isn’t a big deal.  I got it to 93 so far.   I also love AV and to a lesser extend, IoC.  We do win sometimes but I just love open maps and the mini-battles all over.

Healing dungeons thus far is fairly easy too.

I like this better than my holy paladin, so I think that will stay ret.
