Most fights are 5-6 mins including healing and been prepped for the next fight. Sometimes RNG fucks you tho. That Golem was def on the upper end of the level range for mobs in that area and rnged hard with its hits. It was very much the exception.
Phantoms, Fog Golems and Goo's are the hardest general mobs on the ground level of CoM. If you avoid those 3 specific mobs you should be killing at a rate of 1 per ~6 mins or ~10 mobs per hour with 0 down time. It's not alot but it's something. Also you have to remember prior to 51 you get atleast 1.5-2.5% xp per kill.
I think in that video I killed 5-6 mobs and got 10-11% of a level in 35 mins. Going 50 to 51. If i had not killed that fog golem that would have been 25mins.
I logged my epic 51 shaman in today in CoM and shaman soloing is stark difference, had 3 dot rotting at once: some take 2 clicks to die, others 2.5. But it was continueous so you could prob kill 35+ mobs and hour with a shaman in the same situation solo if the mobs were there.
I was soloin moat today on the Paladin and downed a few fog golems which took maybe 8 mins each which is about where they would normally take.
Edit: A fog golem has 2x the hp than most of the other mobs. 4k hp vrs ~1.6-2.2k on others. Sometimes you get lucky hits in a row and kill mobs and only lose 30-40% of your health bar. Like most things eq its all just RnG.
