Bard or Monk

[Baler]

Iksar monk has my vote. They don't get the whole bag of tricks a bard does but are very good at what they do. Pulls, Tags, DPS, Soloing & Grouping.

For anyone out of the loop, Bard melee dps is abysmal until level 60, end of velious when it barely begins to feel useful. Aslo bard has hybrid exp penalty till velious.

Bard melee dps isn’t really that bad anymore. Since they got added to a new melee table their high ratio weapons plus huge self haste puts out respectable numbers. Monk probably pulls away 50+ Due to epic haste but bards way better than people give credit for these days. Also werewolf form at 40 is extremely nice too and paired with some charmed pets you’ll out level any melee without even needing to swarm.
