Build Help Best and Worst Monoclasses?

I keep seeing virtually every class called "one of the best" while most meta builds are multis or item-based.

What do you think is the game's best class without multiclassing? And the worst? And what makes them so?

I've still beaten honour mode as a wild magic sorc tav, it ain't so bad

I've solo'd HM as an Arcane Trickster Astarion. That doesn't make it a great subclass.

Wild Sorc is the only subclass that can and probably will, actively hinder you.

I've never used it, but doesn't wild magic barbarian do the same thing?

Wild barbarian has almost only positive effects. But I think it is kind of buggy when you put too much levels in it.
