<DIV>I solo a bunch due to limited play times.   I am not a named farmer but do plan to kill many named mobs along the way as I level for AA experience.  Can Brigands kill named ^^^ mobs that are 7-10 levels below them?  Without heals & the need for positional attacks in a solo setting will make it hard I understand.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>She will be in complete mastercrafter armor, weapons, and jewelery with plenty of Adept 3 spells (thanks to my 70 Jeweler and her hard work).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Is there an AA line that I should use first to help my cause?  Would it be a waste of 24 AA's to get FD since it is in the int line?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks for any thoughts.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>As a brigand with all fabled, yes, I can solo green 3 up's with no problems whatsoever.  Since the change in the curve, I would suspect you could do the same, as your mitigation is not much lower than mine, if at all.</DIV> <DIV>I use the 1h WIS aa line.  Then again, I also have Shadow Axe.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Were I you, I would try to get her 2 good duel wielders.  Str line is always great for AA's.  FD might not be a bad thing if all you do is solo.  It might save you from alot of deaths.  </DIV>

My Brig is 32 and can solo the ^^^ Green names in CrushBone Ok.  I definatly need my positional attack to win.  I have 3 stuns right now so its pretty easy to get all the attacks off.Vansen<div></div>

I killed 67^^^ named easy enough (The Corpuspasm), it gets rough with anything higher, depends on if I hit and how hard they whack me.Greens are easyI tried an orange ^^^ once...got it to 70%!!! <span>:smileytongue:</span>Fabled, Mastered, Chel Shard with one hand.AA lines, either Str/Stam (dual wield) or Str/Wis (one hander) are the best solo choices.also, trick I learned is Revoke, DBlow, restrain, string of positional, ruse, and if that doesnt work, I cast my thugs, lie low the mob onto them to give my skills some refresh time while it rips them apart, hehe.<div></div>

<P>FD would save you a few deaths, but all in all not worth the 24 AAs.</P> <P>As stated above, Str/Sta is your best bet.  Str line for the extra crit%, Torp strike, etc for caster mobs.  Sta line for the exta HPs, Def and the upping of your DPS%.</P> <P>And with your gear and such you shouldn't have a big problem with Green named.  My gear isn't quiet to that level and I can do Green nameds 9-10 below me.</P>

<P>I disagree.  For the soloing brigand go str/agi.  or go str/wis and not get swipe and go agi just for walk the plank.</P> <P>If you time your stun and positional root properly you can kill a ^^^ green or blue without getting hit and without moving around.  If its named or white or higher might take some extra kiting depending how tough it is.  </P>

depends on the mob, really.if it doesn't have too much hp, if it doesn't nuke too hard, if it doesn't stun/stifle/root (root can be beaten by walk the plank, though)....there are a lot of factors. some named mobs i can solo.... others i can't.they're supposed to be heroic. i don't get too bent out of shape if i can't do it by myself. <span>:smileytongue:</span><div></div>

I agree with Goonch for the AA's of choice.  Also consider using stun potions and vitality breach (hp regen poison).

U are ubor we know.My expierence so far its depending on the mob. Also I recommend to take the STR/AGI over STR/INT AA, FD and hate reducing is just a waste of AA if u solo. Walk the plank ist nice and prvent u from jumping aroud. Just Restrain/Walk the plank/ Dispatch ....</div>

I took STR/STA and have no problem getting green named. I'm full legendary armor (2 set pieces so far) and mastercrafted acrylia. I really like this line as i can tank all instances in EOF.

Through the levels, I have soloed several named greens^^^. I have even soloed blue heroics^^^, although they werent named.  WIS AA line is good, its what I use.  And with any character, carry potions <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> they help

<DIV>Soloing with a brigand is quite easy.  Just have to use your resources and knowing your abilities.  I've been able to solo almost any single target heroic.  A group of triple up and double up is quite tough.  But if it's single, I can take them down.  I've been able to solo Rooleean, a 71^^^ namer, but took two tries since he got the jump on me first time.  Anything higher than blue can take a couple of tries, but it's kind of fun with the excitement of the challenge.  :smileyhappy:</DIV>
