I'd say Nec , Enc and Sham are the 3 top solo class.

necro or bard are widely considered the best. I personally prefer druids for soloing.. they get everything.

Buffs, Damage Shields, Heals, levitates, Sow, nukes, dots, snares roots, (animal) fear, plus starting around the 20s youll start getting your own self ports which will save a ton of time as far as traelling and finding a port goes.

This is a hard question to answer. If I understand you right and you just want to use soloing as an effective means to level, then I would say necro(1-60) or enchanter (20-60) are the best. Shaman is a very poor class from 1-24... then a semi-poor class until 34 when things pick up a bit, but it is a class to consider for the end-game benefits. In fact, I think Shaman has the easiest road from 45-60 solo, if and only if you can afford JBB and can get epic around lvl 54-56.

If you are talking about being an effective soloer at 60, then either Shaman or Enchanter. Shaman probably edges out enchanter @ 60 considering velious is impending.

Ya know, Ive always said that chanters are weak 1-20 too, and that they still don't really feel strong until the 30s... but I actually felt strong from 1 playing untwinked on red with a chanter. Animations are nice, but not so nice they KS you every kill; the low-level chanter dots are awesome; charm was GREAT right at 12 for me with only base+25 high elf charisma. And it just gets better and better from there.

Maybe it was my experience posting a chanter once already that made it seem nice this time around though I guess?

I would say necro. Most uncomplicated steady insane xp flow, and you don't need any special gear or anything really.

can a cleric solo well at all if you go to undead areas?

Clerics can solo quite well up to 50 or so, blowing up undead 1 at a time seems lame but it is very safe and you can do it in high ZEM dungeons.

This.

I stupidly moved my cleric from Unrest to try to group in HHK or Sol B. Terrible choice. Never group as a cleric until 50+

Dunno, duos are pretty great. Anything beyond a 2 man though is a waste of time exping (chardok ae not withstanding)
