Third is my Troubadour. Ok have to admit I knew I'd have problems with him based on what I heard out of beta. But he was about 90% raid geared and all expert with a few masters thrown in. Soloing outside of the great divide is nearly impossible for me at this point. Just simply ugly when I tried once. Massive amount of death in Great Divide. One on one I'm normally ok, but add one more mob and I'm toast. Heck, you can't even out run them since they seem to chase you half way across the zone. This don't count the two an three mobs that are social together, I count them as one mob.
You're doing something or everything wrong if you're having that much trouble. My troub has been slow to solo as these mobs have stupid amounts of HP but my troub is also level 89 with only pre-90 legendary gear and has not died once. I could probably take on at least 5 equal level mobs at once (non-linked) without dieing, although it depends on which mobs they are.

I must be then, cause a one up yellow eat me alive. I was able to get him to almost 80% before I died. Some of the spiders also are a hit or miss. Almost everything in the Eastern Wastes where non-soloable with my Troub while my Monk blew threw them. Sounds like I need to just delete him and start over with a new class then by what you are telling me. Oh well.
