Shamans can solo quite well to 60, though obviously not as easy as a necro. It's true that gear plays a major part of it. Twink soloers have a huge advantage that someone playing their first characters do not have. This is why my necro can do what he does, if he didn't have gobs of mana and hps he couldn't kill so many without rest.

Iksar monks can solo, especially if they have a fungi tunic. SK's have always been able to solo with their lifetaps and utility spells(invis, FD, etc..) but give them a fungi or an iksar BP and they can do very well.

but only true soloers are the pure arcane casters, mage/ wiz, or druid though not arcane, once you get a pet with the shaman you can solo to 60, just 50+ takes longer, necros id say are the kings of soloing, but it all depends on how you know your class, no pure melee'er can solo, but if you know the good spots, the advantages of the area, you can solo

but i prefer grouping, most often
