I did this to my high 50's with hard hitting stuff I didnt want to bow down (like Drolvarg Ravishers). Even w/o a proc on the Swarmcaller often the joust dmg would outrun their damage. If you get an early proc, great. Keep attack on and enjoy feeling tough.
Quick questions regarding jousting and bow soloing:

Jousting works best with a 2 hander weapon, correct? I've never really soloed enough with a melee character to learn jousting.

Can you solo with a bow in the 50s? If so, what's the best strat? Root/bow, bow kite until mob is running? is it viable with a Tolan's Bracer and a decent bow?
