Currently rocking a monk in one of the top raiding guilds on Phinny. Really loving this class! This is my first time through classic and playing as a monk (was a ranger for 10+ years). How do monks fair through the different expansions? We are currently at Luclin and monks are no longer top dps (still break into the top ten, but no longer dominating), but still great pullers. How do we fair in both groups and raids through Pop, GoD, Omens and on? Are we always going to be pullers, does our dps get any better, do we start bringing more utility to the table?
not to sound like a debbie downer here and im not even 100% sure when it starts but pulling becomes non existent later in the game and we never have (and seems never will) have utility outside of "dps" that any class can do given the same skill as the monk playing such as bst rangers etc but on tlp you shouldnt have any of that to worry about for years just keep enjoying the class you enjoy
Also if its later in the game using a no damage item in primary and a weapon in secondary you negate the effects of damage shields but i forget what expansion classes get that aa in
