Like many of you I'm sure, my monk is my main character. He's currently 33 and quite fun to me even with the shortcomings the class currently has. However, I still tinker with alts on occassion to try out the other classes, primarily to see how fun they are but to also get a better understanding for what the class can do for my monk when grouped with one.

The class I've enjoyed playing the most thus far is a shaman, who is currently level 8. Admittedly, I haven't tried any other healer classes yet and while I'm sure they are fun (and powerful), I like what my shammy can do thus far. Great buffs, strong DoTs. and solid heals it seems, although I'm sure some of this may taper off as he levels. It probably helps that I two-boxed a shaman with my monk for years back in EQ but I'm trying to be somewhat objective since this is a new game after all.

I actually have 10 warrior too but it hasn't really captured me the way I thought it might. And as for a light armor class, playing a caster is such a completely different experience for me than what I usually prefer (which is up close and personal ;) ) that I get torn as to what I think I would like best.

Having said that, I'm curious to see what classes other folks enjoy playing outside of their monk and why.

I have several characters that I play depending on what I feel like.
I have a Kojani Bard (20), Wood Elf Bard (14), Kojani Monk (14), Raki Disciple (13), and Halfling Rogue (10)
Had a Wood Elf Shaman (10) for a bit too but didn't care for it. As you can also see, Kojan is the place I call home.
