I appreciate all the legitimate responses, quite a lot of good suggestions. As DeathsSilkyMist explained - The nukes aren't great at level 30, and there are more charm breaks - so sometimes after a fight I'm out 30% or more mana. After 4-5 of those, I'm completely OOM and need to med for a while. So, with an hour of playtime, I get about 10 kills total before I need to log and do something else.

In a group, it's wonderful. I don't have to break charm, and I can have someone else tank so that my pet doesn't need to be replaced. But, I've had luck finding groups about 20% of my playtime (mostly because I have had bad luck going to "populated" zones where there are no spots in group)

The other downside of grouping is that after 30 minutes of nonstop action, I wind up with about 5% exp, and then I've gotta log. I grouped for the first half of level 30, and after 2 weeks of my limited playtime, I had 45% exp through 30.
And if you grunt through the shit now, by the time you're 50 you'll outpace any other class (except for maybe bard swarming, but to hell w/ that nonsense)...and you'll be able to do solo stuff no other class can.

Sometimes its ok to just eat a 50% XP kill, too. Also remember pet sit is pretty nice to even out a fight. Don't bother w/ torches or haste.
