Monks also solo barely-dark blue mobs really well with decent gear.

But as for SK solo spots, Fear kiting is pretty much the MO after 22 (Engulfing Darkness - Clinging darkness sucks, but it works i guess). SK's get spook the dead, which is faster-casting and much more efficient than fear, so anywhere you can fear kite undead outdoors is a huge +. Get a good twohander (Nathsar greatsword is fantastic up to 20 b/c of damage caps) and go to town. Keep your pet up - he's free DPS, despite how fragile he is.

Stick to big outdoor zones with melee mobs only. You're not gonna want to be killing casters as a solo tank.
Disagree. If he can keep them feared, they're much softer targets [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] but yeah, I agree with you indoors - casters are a pain if you can't lock them down.

Edit 2: I suppose I could riff off a list of places that would theoretically work fine:

1-15 - noob zones, Oasis, spiders in upper guk, Befallen if you're careful
15-22 - Oasis if you're focused, LoIO if you're gutsy, NK also works fine
22-30 - LoIO or noob area of OT
30-34 - Giant Skeletons in Rathe Mts. Very squishy, can be fear kited w/ undead fear.
34-42ish - OT near SF ramp
