As a torp shaman stuck at 60, I assume you're after quick/simple kills, there's old world (Guk/SolB) and Kunark (Sebilis). You wont be soloing anything in Kael that could even drop armor, just using your spells anyhow. And the risk of trying isn't worth it the drop rates are low and meant for raiding and fast kills. Velks mobs have duo+ HPs, really high for solo. And that's just the easy camps (ramp spiders). Sebilis can be nice cash if you are lucky, and persist at it. Drop rates on anything more than gems or Kunark armor is really low (SBC/RBG/etc). Use line of sight every encounter in there solo, especially with wizards. Keep gate loaded in Sebilis and bind outside the portal. Long wait for a score usually but when it hits it pays off. The reason I bored of the solo torp shaman was the constant canni-ing, especially after clearing a 3 mob encounter and being oom or near it, unless you get lucky and a chanter hits you with a c2, which in a group you will often have on all the time. Downtime due to mana regen sucks when oom if you want to be most efficient and canni it all back. Or you could take the lazy route, fight until not enough for the next battle, gate out, sit and afk a while. If you choose to hold a camp like NG, you lose the gate/afk luxury when oom. In my experience it was fun for maybe 500 or so hours, solo. Found a couple of SBCs (Bok/Kor shamans) and a few obulus death shrouds and various valueless spells 51-54. If you fight Krup shamans or wizards past NG you'll wanna make sure you malo, they are resisters. And always, keep them separated, so only one is in line of sight of you and your pet. They also summon so they are risky, I'd avoid soloing them altogether.
