umm if you have a drk monks utility apart from mantra is nill.... + 3 melee slows lb gadge slightly like if you went 3 casters for example. hence why mch and melee heavy partys are not that common, compaired to the the old 2 melee 2 caster style.

Not sure where you're getting your information, but you're wrong. LB gauge is only slowed when there are multiples of the same job in the party.
