That's true. You can solo with a lot of classes, it's just that some will have significantly more downtime between kills compared to the more efficient soloers. A naked necro can kill blues all day long with little downtime. A hybrid with bronze armor and a 50p EC weapon can solo, but is gonna get beat up a bit and need more rest breaks, that's all.

A melee first character that can do pretty well is monk. The light weight of being naked doesnt hurt their AC too much and mend (when it works) gets them back in the action faster.

Maybe warrior and rogue are the only true no-go classes for soloing, unless you can swing a fungi, which is unlikely for a first character.
