[Chaotic]

Look, its a general consensus that monks straight up suck nowadays, we all get the point. Its obvious to an extent that people that have never played monks actually pity them. Denying it at this point is dumb. I originally (read: pre pop-early pop) had a monk as a primary dps class, when elemental bows came out, strike of solusek became available, mass focus items, huge influx of incredibly powerful weapons, PoP AA - monks shit hit the fan. Plain and simple, they werent putting out anywhere near their dps counter-parts (rogue lite anyone?) they couldnt tank, they cant pull as good as at the very least 2 other classes.
They're simply an essentially worthless - no rogues/wizards lfg, grab the monk? - class.
I was putting out approximatly 130 dps with my monk in a basic group situation, with almost all offensive aa maxed. I put out 200+ with my ranger, get some nice atk buffs, heals if need be, harmony, sow, etc.
I put out 200+ with my wizard, and ill admit the utility isnt as good as a ranger, he sure brings alot more to the table then a monk - read: burst dps in dire situations, evac/transport , stuns.

All utility aside, why would I want a class that puts out almost half the dps of other primary damage dealers?

(Note: Monk with GSoT , ranger with featherwood compound bow)
