    I would say no. Most of the high level and raid content that has been soloed has been done by other classes. Monks are also harder to gear and when not geared right, function alot worse than another class that isnt geared right.

    Favored Souls are easy mode, but as far as straight up melee classes go, I always feel a lot more survivable on my Monk than on my other characters.

    They are a pain to gear, but are pretty darn fun even when you get adequate mid to upper level gear. I salivate at the prospect of double bursted ToD rings.

    The easiest class is the one you find your play-style most in tune with...or the one that you see someone else do some stuff you cannot currently do/lack the skill to pull off.

    Ive seen some spectacular feats from all classes, turning the tide in pugs when all normal hope would have been lost....its more a matter of the player and how well they can perform with a class than the class alone.

    That said, anything that possesses the ability to heal (or remembers that all classes have access to such (with no penalty for potion chain chugging)) becomes easier to manipulate. Its just a matter of learning how to finesse with the tools you are alloted or actively choose.

    LOL yes you sir have definitely been soloing your monk.
    Only a true enlightened knows that it is less resource intensive to run a monk on higher difficulties than the lowers.

    A character of any class, properly geared and constructed by a knowledgeable player, is easymode.
