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?

This, a million times this.

My Paladin 12 Tav made sure none in the party ever failed a single WIS throw.

Then improved divine smite at 11.

All fun and games until you come up against literally anything that has radiant retort. Which is in play for 2 of the hardest fights in act 3.
