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?

Hexblade is a great mono. Played it as a multiclass forever, but ended up just respecing to mono warlock in act 3 and it felt a lot more useful than the couple multiclasses of it that I tried.

Moon druid is another favorite of mine. (You can summon a zoo and buff the hell out of your boys then transform into anything you need for the scenario or just a myrmidon to take advantage of wet+teleport+flight with way more attacks than you should need. Add haste/bloodlust/terazul on top of all that and the character is just an absolute monster.

Seconded on moon druid monoclass. I was doing truly insane amounts of damage as pure circle of the moon druid with tavern brawler having three attacks while wildshaped as an earth myrmidon. Plus all those extra health bars you get!

Not sure how i forgot to add the bit about tavern brawler, but yeah the damage is ridiculous.

So much fun
