I believe all of the 2e Complete Handbooks had advice for running mono-classed parties.I played in a 2e campaign with no casters that went to a  fairly high level (I want to say 9th?). My forum handle is actually my character's surname from that campaign. If we hadn't picked a fight with the Kraken (from Clash of the Titans, so basically an aquatic Tarrasque) it would have gone even farther. It was a close fight, so maybe even if our dice hadn't gone cold mid-fight. Prior to that we only had one or two character deaths, despite regular and challenging combats. The DM mitigated the larger issues by allowing the heal proficiency to recover a few HP once per combat. There were also herbal healing potions that we could create if we were proficient in herbalism, which we crafted constantly. We were often down HP, but the party also had high damage and strong mitigation, so we managed.</blockquote>
