You guys are basically fighting for how high the bar for soloing is. I think it boils down to needing separate solo categories.

Solo means with no outside help but you can't claim with a straight face you had no outside help if you're raid buffed for the attempt. You can't also claim getting haste/regen/maxhp/stats from buffs doesn't create a HUGE gap between that player and the one who does a "pure" solo (only self buffed) so putting both types of attempts on the same level is unfair.

But then you open the can of worms of if buffing is considered outside help, you could consider being raid geared to the gills outside help too so then it becomes a self found challenge by default. Raid gear guy unbuffed might have better stats than a non raid gear player with outside buffs so it all becomes hazy. Just giving aegolism to a caster nearly doubles their hp.

And then we could discuss puppet strings.

I think all kills are valid and impressive but it is disengenuous to try to default them to being all the same because they're absolutely not.
Yes, there were already categories (ranks) on the solo challenge page. Zuranthium is the only one trying to claim there are no solo categories other than no outside buffs and no comsumables. He keeps insisting everybody wants it this way too. He seems to think you aren't solo if you click one charge of a wort pot.

It's already been provided, countless times. You refuse to listen.
It has not. If it has, please repost it. Like Samoht, your strategy is to lie that you posted evidence when you didn't over and over. You hope people just believe you. It doesn't work like that. People can read the thread.
