Wait, how do Fighters attack so much more than a monk?

Is it action surge?
Does it actually make Fighters attack so much more than a monk?

Action surge is a part of it, but that is only usable once per short rest

Max level Fighters get Extra Attack 3 which grants 4 attacks before spending their Bonus Action or a single resource. Add in things like Action Surge and some source of a Bonus Action attack (Polearm Master, Crossbow Expert, or even off hand weapon) and Fighters can easily get 9 Attacks.

So, compared to Paladins and Rangers; action surge
Compared to Monks; nah lol
