Lvl 50+ Monk Solo

[Hotfire]

Anyone know any spots I can solo on a 52 Monk? Fungi w/ SoS, Addy Club.
Was thinking the Elementals at entrance in The Hole, but could be highly contested.

Suggestions boi's?

Highkeep with nobles etc, or may be PoM yard. Those are fatest way solo I believe. The hole entrance would be just after that so not a bad idea either.

I've done Nobles / bards in higkeep from 51 to 56. Best exp I've ever seen by far

Solb

Bats, beetles, spiders

The xp is pretty awesome. You can flop anywhere and fungi up periodically

[Hotfire]

Ohhhh excellent ideas. alright, ty!

Mushrooms in pom forest almost all blue through 54. Easy to solo w that gear I'd you commit to leaving monk there.

Is PoM bindable without locket?

Is PoM bindable without locket?

No

[Jimjam]

Why do you have to say such horrible things to me, Foxplay?!

I brought a bag for life with a fox logo on this morning, I thought I did the faction work I needed to get the reply I wanted!

What would be best exp from, say, 55 and onwards, LDC in SolB or Rat Maze in PoM for a monk with gear like OP?

I'm currently doing rats on my chanter having already dinged a shaman 60 on them. I'd like to keep my sanity and not ding 3 characters 60 there but the exp seem very good. Have not done LDC though and wonder how good that is?

The draw for me to PoM is also the safety of being able to afk and just leave my char there if RL calls. But that's less an issue for a monk.

[Foxplay]

If safety is a concern really nothing beats PoM rats.... They a non-kos, can easily separated to fight them solo and avoid pathers, and have no abilities (spells or procs)

The downsize is the rat tunnel is mind numbing after 1 or 2 levels let alone 5 or 6

As for monk you have feign pretty much anything that doesn't include spell casters is completely safe

[ricquire]

I'm not sure if a mid 50s monk can effectively solo rats for exp. I more meant high 40s to 54 on forest.

I went to the Hole at 54 on my Monk and still there now and enjoying it. Would recommend getting some decent resist gear as the casters can nuke pretty hard but low hp so if you resist spells you drop them fast. Most mobs relatively low HP and never really busy. Another fungi monk makes a great duo at Rats.. Good Hole guides on the Wiki and in Server Chat right now as well make learning curve much easier.

Also, I think it’s worth getting Paineel Faction so you can vendor and bank plus take the teleporter out(Erudin Docks much faster than Warren). It’s not too bad of a run with Voidance if you get a FD fail or spell hit you after you flop. Also lot of underutilized vendors in Paineel for recharges and enough vendor trash to keep all your nets recharged and I’ve even been adding some plat to the bank.

What level do you think an Epic/TStaff/SOS/Fungi Monk can start to solo Rat Maze? Never been to PoM and would like to check it out. If I do go on Monk, I should probably bring my Enchanter so that I can bind and run in bandages correct?

Thanks,

Get a necro and duo the arena ogres in neriaka. Just keep shadowbond up and have the necro summon a rogue pet and youre good to go. Blue to 60

[CodyF86]

I soloed the spirocs in TD until 52, then you can go solo LDC's or something like that. :)

[Dreenk317]

I'd say pom rats are 58+ for a solo monk.

[Troxx]

I hate soloing. Of all the melee classes monks have it the best but I’d honestly just find a duo buddy - any priest class (or necro) will do.

[Lojik]

I didn't solo pom, but solb was awesome on a monk. Bandage merchant nearby in LS too, not sure if BW trick still works but soloing went by pretty quick with epic and IFS.
