Having a separate puller isn't really necessary in EQ2 as it was in EQ1. One of the reasons is the mechanics of separating mobs works a bit differently.
Many mobs are linked in groups, you pull one, you get 'em all. They can be mezzed at the fighting spot (mostly) but not separated by using FD.
There are times when someone other than the tank needs to pull for particular named mobs depending on the mobs abilities and tactics needed to fight it, but in general gameplay, the tank does all the pulling.
Monks are a really great DPS class though and also a pretty good tank in their own right
