It's funny how people do not realize that Monk is the best melee in the game, especially if we take itemization into consideration. Followed by Thief Rogue.
If we want to get ridiculous, pair Thief with Open Hand or Gloomstalker for best close combat damage dealer in the game, who also has proficiency in 10 skills and expertise in 4.
Or Thief + Champion decked out in crit chance increase gear, attacking with advantage will insta delete 1 target per turn, with bonus attacks left
