As someone who is usually a fan of testing my indomitable dark elf will granted to me by Innoruuk himself, and killing the strongest things I can find.... This list seems to be a pile of slop that was shoddily put together.
Possibly you were affected by this curse. Or under the influence of too much Gator Gulp Ale

Silly goofs like, fire giants being a tier below permafrost ice giants despite being a copy & paste reskin of the same mob? There's maybe a 300hp difference in their total health pool? Why?

Mobs like Uulump and Prince Selrach are 'duo god' tier but are both soloable by an enchanter? Does that instantly put me into Solo Uber Mega-God Ultra L33t Gamer 69 tier?
Same with mobs like Essence Tamer / Soul Tamer being listed.... Very killable... solo. But even then having sky stuff on a challenge like this is as silly as it may get for a 26 year old elf sim on an emulated server that has daily sky guild-rotations.

The original framework for the Solo Artist Challenge enticed me 'til I realized it was stale after being stunlocked in velious this long... some things are just weighed differently.
  • ie: Khelkar Icepaw being god mode but Kerdelb & Bledrek being a tier lower? (proposed changes of course). [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
As someone who has solo'd all three mobs many times I'd argue that Kerdelb and Bledrek are harder simply because they're a 2 part fight with their smaller versions spawning shortly thereafter.... vs. Khelkar being a one and done.


All in all, I'm definitely thankful you're trying to resuscitate the solo artist challenge but we might need to go back to the drawing board on this unorganized mess of classic/kunark crud and maybe just try to expand on the Solo Artist Challenge except with more velious options... ... .... ... .. . . and ideally.... realistic velious options.
not options like Bristlebane Puppet being on the same tier as Emp Chottal [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] .... If you can solo the bb puppet everything else on the list above it should be null and void! (except for maybe fear golems)
