SK: I think you might be underestimating the SK toolkit a bit. For example, I'm quite sure SKs could solo Sebilis at 58+. You can split with Darkness/FD, throw a few dots to help your DPS, and fear kite (even in a dungeon) the last 50% or so. I'm not saying it would be fast, but it would work until you find a group. Failing that, you could always do KC. Vonhammer has leveled about 12 hybrids there solo.
Mage: get a 10 slot bag of root nets. It helps a LOT.
Neither of those choices are super power classes, but they are both plenty effective solo or grouped. If you want absolute max freedom to solo and farm, roll shaman or enchanter.
