  • @zaatas

    Nicely done, agree with nearly everything. One thing you left out about rangers is that they can fear kite animals. I would also argue Paladin probably deserves to be the lowest in B tier or the highest in C tier. Their damage with a 2 hander is not that bad, they still get double attack,. Lull and root are also very useful spells for soloing. Stuns make casters easier to deal with. Some paladin only weapons have some really nice procs as well.

The exception is if you have a manastone in old world, but I consider that outside the scope of this list. Cleric can't farm anything truly valuable anyway in Velious era if they are just trying to fight undead in old world zones.

    This list is ALMOST accurate, except for monk. It is definitely not B tier. A well geared monk can solo the entire DS room without an issue, including with mort prot up, phinny, and a bunch of other high tier targets (note that phinny is in the solo artist god tier rank).

    Best classes are : Shaman : able to kill the bigest target of any soloer with slow, dots and torpor. Necro : easiest class, powerful and faster than shaman but get no slow for non undead targets. Enchanter : can manage to kill a very bug target like the shaman but it is more risky and you can not farm as fast as necro, shm and mage. Druid : safer than ench, easy like necro, but you will wait for mana between fights like for mage and even more. Mage : easy to play but your character is fragile, you dont have any defensive skill (like life tap, runspeed, feign death, evac ...) only your pet and you have to manage your agro wisely. Best class to farm low and mid targets. Not powerful soloing on one big mob.

    I play a main as a Magician so I know all the tricks, the one thing I’ll say other than you being correct they aren’t elite 50-60 compared to shamans and enchanters, we did manage to solo big mobs such as phinny with 2 of us (2 50+ magicians) using chain casting of the earth pet. So if you are a magician and wondering what your best tricks are it’s CoH pulling and chain casting. With that you can duo some of the bigger mobs. Still not on the level of a shaman / monk duo or an enchanter / cleric duo those are king duo in p99.

    Warriors Can solo to high level (did it years ago on Troll war), but you need proc gear, i.e clickies, proc weapons, and in general gear very high in dex, beside the normal AC, sta and str. The reason is that many of the same (weaker) Necro spells with dots etc. as you see on SK's also come in the form of proc gear to warriors, but with the difference that a War can have a fast weapon in both hands, and from experience I'll say that Both weapons can proc! as well that you Also can get proc gear that has effects outside the scope of Necro/SK 🤩 It's relatively easy as it is, to solo a war up to 20-30 (note BB and Kurn etc.) and already at lvl 10 will you be able to get the Polished Granite Tomahawk to proc, what gives you both shortly Berserker Strength, as well as the added benefit of not being harmed by normal weapons during the effect (common drop so buy it for low pp early on). wiki.project1999.com/Polished_Granite_Tomahawk There Are a difficult period between about lvl 30-40, depending on what gear you then have, and there Are a number of number of possibilities that can help there, in special if you lvl in Paw, as you are likely to get you hands on some of the whips, that albeit has low damage, however can stun (from lvl 25) while you still do damage (with high enough dex, you'll see a Lot of proc, but avoid haste gear/spells/effects as it Slows procs!). wiki.project1999.com/Gnoll_Hide_Lariat Another relatively cheap proc gear to invest in, that proc from lvl 40, is the Kunzar Ku'juch, that can slow run speed on the target, as well as giving the dot Engulfing Darkness, that among other things prevent the target from running away, while the dot is active (at least no further away that you still can kill it), giving a way to solo in dungeons where a single runner otherwise would be a problem (used it a Lot in Paw, as well as Guk). wiki.project1999.com/Kunzar_Ku%27juch A more expensive investment comes at lvl 50, in the forms of the Blood Point daggers, a fast weapon you can have in both hands, that can Siphon up to 80 hp at each proc, and it proc Often too, meaning you now have a way of healing yourself while killing Very fast 🤩 wiki.project1999.com/Blood_Point In short, while the route for a solo warrior is Very gear dependent, then you can get a warrior that solos Very well.

    The Evil race cleric can solo pretty good once you get the quest necklace ( name evades me) that is Cleric and shaman only I think that allows you to cast darkness. You can get it at really low levels and once I got it I was able to solo so much easier. However soloing a cleric is kind of not really the point of it. I always enjoyed grouping with clerics. I have played most classes over the 25 years its been around except the Necro really. Not sure why. I may make one on Quarm since I am there right now.

    A rogue is not that bad solo, all the way to 60 can be done if you had to. You can get in some solo backstabs and kill low blues. Rogues slot into groups easier than anyone else anyway. Paladins, if geared, can solo well. For ex a well geared 60 paladin can handle breaking and soloing efreeti. With the 2hs from Tunare, paladins (sk can also use) DPS really goes up along with a 3 min root proc. I think you owe monks more credit. Many uber geared iksar monks can easily solo good cash camps. They dont need to stress about a charm pet either.

    I guess it depends on gear for a Pally, durning live on my server my Pally was in the top 4 on the server, even during the Luclin expansion, as a Human Pal at lvl 60 max, I had no real issues soloing content like Crypt in Seb, Howling Stones etc. I remember once I pafcied my group across the Deep, from one end to the other across the invs bridge with full spawn up all the mobs 55 lvl with no aggro, when lvl 60 was max level. Later on with Planes of Power and AA, I used to solo in Crypt of Decay, getting 7k to 10k slay undead crits on the mobs there. Pallys solo a bit slower, are very gear dependent, but if you kill undead mobs, it`s not that bad. I used to run mana pool 30% to 40% of whatever my max hp were, like in Planes of power I had 9k hp, and mana was at 4k , with Flowing though 15 or something .

    Necromancer is the king of soloing. Not many can compare. They are fine vs summoning mobs, you just have to be smart about it and keep the mob snared, Dot the crap outta the mob then run away and lifetap in between summons. And they are even better than an enchanter when dealing with undead. They have a mez, they can charm and even heal their pet. They can heal THEMSELVES with lifetap(something an enchanter cannot). They can also Feign Death for safety or splitting. They also can out DPS an entire group of melee in a race.

    • @janus3555
      @janus3555 9 місяців тому

      They lack the 70% slow so unfearable mobs are an issue. Can only deal as well as an Enchanter with undead. Enchanter can mem wipe mobs too as a form of FD. And while Necros have lifetaps, Enchanters have runes and Bedlam, which against a slowed mob is a non-issue. Add to that, super fast cast PBAE stuns.

      But Necro DPS is much higher than even a charmed pet. ESP after the charm nerf after PoP. Necros after luclin dominated DPS for a long time. Aggro kiting in areas that normally require a group. Fear kiting went away for the most part after Kunark. No control over where the mob runs can create massive problems.@@janus3555

    Bard. Back in the early days of Blue server Kunark was the most bonkers solo game. We were able to pull an entire zone like the Overthere, Firiona Vie, Burning Woods, Dreadlands, etc. I maxed out at about 120-150 mobs before the server started to push back with lag spikes causing problems. High risk/reward and very nerve racking, but lots of fun. You can start as early as level 4 i think with your first aoe song on Kobolds in Steamfont.
