I don't know anything about PvP and play exclusively on a PvE server but here are some ideas that may work for you.Splitpaw Adventure Pack - some good instanced areas where you can make good xp and that scale with your level.Here's a link to a post about solo instances:  http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=zones&message.id=3019The non-EoF expansion packs are all level 40+ so won't be much use to you for a bit.Always use poisons. Always, always, always.  Use Caustic poisons, not the Damage over time ones.  If you can't afford the handcrafted ones, then you can get basic ones from npc merchants (ask a guard for an Alchemist).For PvP and soloing, I recommend the stamina line which adds to your mit, and makes you a damage dealing light tank.  It will also be great for when you end up in pick-up groups - you should be able to easily tank most things.I have no ideas on how to win PvP fights - I'm the worst duel'er ever!Good luck!KrikiParagonEverfrost<div></div>
