Enchanter is #1 solo class? What is this madness

Thanks for the responses! I see what you are driving at now.

I am genuinely curious if players know of a mob that fits this perfect storm of variables:

1. The mob is in a spot where the Enchanter doesn't have a good target to charm.
2. The mob is in a position that requires the enchanter toolkit to get it solo.
3. The Enchanter and the level 55 Enchanter animation can solo this mob without charming.

I like finding new solo challenges to try out, which is why I ask.

I understand that the level 55 animation is a good pet. I have quite a bit of experience with the Shaman pet, which is weaker than the level 55 animation. The Shaman pet can tank a Cliff Golem, so I don't doubt the level 55 animation can do some cool stuff. I've just never really seen a crazy solo kill using the animation, I've only heard anecdotes.

As for dealing with adds and gaters, I've often been able to deal with these issues on my Shaman without consumables. I am extremely lazy when it comes to consumables. I don't like spending the time farming plat/items for recharges/replacements. So I try to find ways to do the solo kills without them.

Here is me soloing King Tranix while the full throne room is popped. Slow+Root did the trick on the adds.

Here is an example of me clearing the Gravemaster PH by killing the pathing gater close enough to it's spawn point to prevent gating.

I haven't tried the corrupted seahorse yet, so thanks for the suggestion. The wiki page says a Torpor Shaman can solo it, but I've never seen an attempt myself.

Let me know if you have any ideas for mobs that may fit the perfect storm of variables I listed above.

Maaaaybe khelkar icepaw meets your conditions. Enc werewolf illusion and faction spell to not be kos down there. Calms to get the pull off. Rapture to get it slowed, and the gear to help out with tanking/runes. Idk though. I’ll try to think of others.

I don't think you can kill it solo with summon pets, would be entertained if someone brought a video proving me wrong though.

Ain't no way you're killing khelkar with an animation pet

How many animation pets would be required?

It’s hard to say. Never been attempted before I’m sure. The enc would need to be well geared and help out tanking a lot with runes as the pet would be taking way more dmg due to its max level.

If you were lucky enough to pre slow khelkar, you'd probably go oom casting runes before you got him to 40% . Without pre slow he's dying in like 20 seconds

The animation is what it is. It's a 3rd string pet thats decent for killing green con mobs. A charm pet will do 3x the damage easily and has 2-3x the hp. If you're fighting stuff that the animation can do well against then the bar is on the floor. You can work with it in a pinch but I would never consider using it just for the sake of not wanting to deal with a charm pet.
