<p><span style="font-size: small"><span style="color: #006600">I would like to play a Wizard, as long no pet. I was think a High-Elf. Are they solo friendly? I know must class  can do it well when it comes to solo. But I was woundering about Wizards.</span></span></p>

Expect to lead a fast and exciting life (lots of lives actually) - you will kill things fast, but if things don't go to plan you will die fast too. As your roots become better and you get a bigger range of nukes you get very powerful.

<p>yup, Wizards can solo really well, in the right situation (need a bit of space and far easier against single mobs rather than groups). Apart from that they are also an exciting class to play solo, in groups and in raids. </p><p>As posted already, prepare to die a lot but thats all part of the fun of being nuclear powered but made of paper <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>What about Warlocks? how are they at solo? and do they have pets? (me don't like pet ) Cool thing about warlocks the look evil and they spells seen evil too, but can start in a good city or am I wrong?</p>

Yes, Warlocks can be good or evil. I haven't played either class, but warlocks seem to be considered weaker soloers than Wizards, but still decent at it.

Expect to die even more often lol - two reasons - one they have more Damage over time (DoT's) spells, and each "tick" of damage gives a chance to break the root spell (then enemy is in your face and killing you), second they have more area of effect spells, and are therefore more likely to pull in add's - more enemies to kill you lol. Other than that they look identical to wizzies, and both can start in either good or evil ends of Norrath.
