SK solo spots 50+

Just was curious, I too once loved SK until discovering I couldn’t solo Xalgoz at 51. Took me 5 SKs and 3 NECs to realize my preferred play style is caster.

That mostly comes down to how much you like caster play styles vs. melee play styles. To be honest I love the melee play style in Everquest. My first level 50+ toon on live was a Warrior I mostly soloed with hehe.

However, pure melees tend to not have enough tools when it comes to soloing. That is why I picked Shadowknight as my first char on P99 instead of Warrior. You get the hard-hitting 250 damage melee swings of an SK, coupled with some Necro spells for more dynamic play. That is why I like playing my SK, even at level 58.

I think that is why I like Shamans a lot too. They are tanky, so they still have some melee play aspects to them, but they have more raw power due to them being a pure caster.
