<DIV>Hello folks, i play a 53 necro on Negena server. I am looking to make a fighter alt and made a bruiser and working on lvling up a warrior to zerker. Im just curious as to how well you guys solo later on in lvls and to what extent mob can you solo (^ or ^^ and so on). Trying to decide on the bruise ror zerker since i solo alot. Thanks for any info you guys have.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Morgorath Blackscale</DIV> <DIV>53 Necromancer</DIV> <DIV>Negena</DIV>
<DIV>I play a 43 zerker (my main since launch.) As far as soloing goes, the zerker is really great against large groups. Lots of the CAs involve riposting and getting extra attacks against all the mobs in the encounter. My character has always had decent gear (usually a heritage quest qeapon at the minimum and is now wearing half ebon) and he solos blue ^ quite easily, but a group of yellow vv is the perfect solo opportunity for a zerker.</DIV>

I never solo.....ever. But i group in silent city often and i see a bruiser soloing there a lot. He is well equipped but i think his stuns and stifles really help him out, not to mention the great dps they get. Also, i tend to run out of power really quick when soloing.

As a 54.5 zerk, I tend to do a fair amount of soloing. I can pretty easily take green and blue ^s. I've taken a couple green ^^, but it's not very efficient. I've taken one or two low green ^^^s, but it utterly useless, and very risky. Unless I just need one or two quest updates, it's not worth trying. In order to kill even low-green ^^^s, I need to burn though every lick of mana, probably use the manastone, and hope to hell Rampage is up before I start. In the end, I'll be lucky to have 20% of my health back, and if I get unlucky with resists, I very well might die.However, I can chew the hell through linked groups of v mobs up to white-con. When I am soloing for xp, I tend to find groups of blue or white-con single-v mobs, burn them with rampage, kill the next group a bit more slowly while Rampage recharges, then rinse and repeat. Or, head to Silent City and kill ever yellow-con single-v I can find. I could prolly take a bit more than this, but really, I hate xp debt, and in the 50s, the debt is a lot more noticable. So, I tend to play a bit more cautiously, since I don't want to be working hard to remove debt in addition to working hard to gain xp.Grouping is still the way to go, at least for efficiency and safety.--Z

your definately better off trying to solo groups of heroics using a berserker but the bruiser should do better against single ^^^ heroics . and once a zerker gets open wounds its cake to solo blue heroic groups but the single ^^^ r tougher. <p></p>
