Thinking either monk, sk, or bard. Barring abnormalities I should be able to commit VERY hard for 2-3 days and then just be kind of regular after that.

Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
For those that want to give chanter a shot - things to remember.
a. While OP w/ Charm it requires nearly 100% constant attention to take advantage of "OP". Very little afk / alt-tabing possible.
b. Raid scene is mostly buffing/debuffing. Very little mez'ing. Some content you get to have fun with charm but it is minor and often a risk some leads don't like to take.
c. Epic is bottlenecked horribly in a few spots. 20-50 people have been seen spawncamping mobs that pop every 2-5 days.
If you can live with the above, you get to enjoy some pretty awesome shit with hasted charm pets, paired with two yaks and mage summoned items. Plus, you know - clarity, mez, and AOE stuns.

Monk H2H tables are really awesome, at every level they are great dps without weapons. In Kunark raiding only SKs can go toe to toe or beat an epic monk running Innerflame.
They also unbound Flying Kick a few years back so you can use Flying Kick and Tiger Claw simultaneously. I believe we have triple attack at like 47 as well.
Full disclosure, I main Monk so I am biased.

Zaide I wish you would have raced on our servers because a few of our SK's including me with Unholy + Harm Touch + Leechcurse were just straight up unbeatable in Kunark, Velious, and for at least the early portion of Luclin when I stopped playing a month in. The problem is people go lol a SK and don't buff properly with avatar, enchanter +mana pool, pet with buffs, and +intelligence stat buffs. A lot of times our shamans would prioritize other DPS classes as well for avatar which is a huge boost in our dps just like any other melee.
The problem though is one fight and then your out of gas for almost an hour versus a monk who is back in the game in 15 minutes and just always cranking out higher damage without downtime. SK's have to time taps in between melee swings to maximize DPS and do 10 other things to do what a monk does by pressing attack. You have to run the beastlord crack pot, you have to med constantly etc. Its just a lot of work.

Chanter epic is real bad on tlp. Vessel and the dude in Neriak are awful. SK epic is also dumb, needing Marl twice makes it a shitshow. Broken Golem for Wizard epic is also pretty bad. Bard was bad before, but they added guts to Trak.

Warrior epic is a joke on TLP, there will be so many scales between OW/Instance VP and if needed can do same with SEV.

It sounds that way, but expansions get finished in a few days and with splitting instances and everything else everyone gets all the gear they want pretty much before the 12 weeks anyways.

yeah instances make it a non issue. Warrior epic is one of the easier ones with instancing in.

Ya monks are OP cause of that AA they get at like 55 and 60, increase the physical damage on top of their overpowered h2h tables with epic. But I've always hated not being able to gate and bind so I went necro usually. Yeah they wont let you stack poison line of dots anymore, not a huge deal breaker but they might venture into disease dots (shaman) or just our dots in general who knows, all to balance live servers i heard.

Cool, I was in Dealers of Death when Solusek Ro opened up, then I ran Necessary Evil for like 4-5 years.

Thrudd that's where we all know each other from then, I was Krassus for early expacs and then played Iyamm in BoR on Solusek Ro. Pikallo is playing with us on Phinny from BoR also but he goes by Dyll now. Bruuce is up around here still too.

Originally, I was a warrior from classic through OoW and never really played any alts above 20. Still trying to decide on what I want to do. I am leaning more towards an off-tank role with an SK or Pally; although, I may go complete opposite and go cleric for a big change.
