Nobody, looking at you monks and invokers, should be able to solo endgame content like evermore.

With invokers, it's the effectiveness of barrier to mitigate damage from the speedbump mobs while casting AoE.

With monks, it's the uber-tankiness of some stances. I think they prefer leopard.

I've never understood endgame EQ. It's too much of a pain to learn/get and if anything newbies need access to better EQ in order to bridge the gap between pkers. Malicious beast is pretty good, unless that's changed. Lightwalkers need something more.

diversifying the damtypes of the speedbump mobs in evermore will squash that behavior quickly from invokers without needing big fixes there

for monks, I think we just need a hard nerf on astral walk

I would like to hear an opinion from Lorne or Phostan before we nerf invoker soloing in Evermore though, I am not sure that's entirely undesirable. It might be too easy right now. Some of this stuff should stay, like knights soloing vlad

monk can't astral walk any endgame content anymore afaik. The monk issue is ridiculous mob tanking ability in certain defensive stances.

I don't know what to make of the evermore trash (fighting it all sucks nuts anyways) but I think your ability to kill Yorick, Rainen etc probably needs to rest in the hands of your healers. Whoever tanks that shit should be taking loads of damage. So its not tanking like a leopard monk is convenient, but actually, that its required... and then have a healer also.
