General SK questions about soloing and item farming

[Itap]

SK's can solo, but in outdoor zones, using snare/fear. They are not dungeon soloers, especially not the zones you listed. I suppose you could solo to 60 fear kiting (outdoor zones), but its not efficient at all.

Knights were created to be utilized in a group setting

Aside from the splitting, Warriors actually solo much better than SKs with higher dps and better procs (Truncheon of Doom, Blood Point, Blood Fire, Silken Whip mainly).

Since the op seems to be taking into consideration a fungi tunic regen when he talks about his race selection , he might not have an issue with twinking.

That being said, out of Guk - KC - Seb , the actual soloing a SK can do, even at 60 with 41% haste and epic is minimal.

Seb doesn't offer a lot of 'safe' spots for snare/fear kite, your best bet in this would be to find a broken / splitted Guard camp to take over, and even then it can prove a challenge -- and flat out tanking mobs in there right now is extremely dangerous. Can it be done? Sure, if you utilise a ton of clickies and consumables along with the best gear in game right now, and even then it is not worth your time, unless you're in just for the challenge and not for farming efficiency.

Guk doesn't offer a lot of spots either, the only viable one that comes to mind is the Lord's Hall where spawns have some space between them, and even they need to be taken care off before you try splitting Lords room itself. Given the price of SSB/SSOY in the market, and the time needed to actually kill Lord, this isn't an efficient camp either. Frenzy would be a better time/reward camp and can take advantage of the space outside the room since there are only 3 spawns there that will be in your way.

KC you can have relative success with snare/fear, but you need a condition. Got to have good Outpost faction, and not touch the living mobs in there. If you're not KoS to them, you can pull moat/battlement UD to the zonein and snare/fear them for minimal HP loss. Gotta look out for the trains though, because you'll have to do your fear along the bridge-zoneline. If you do it outside server peak hours, the zone is quiet enough for you to make some decent progress, and if lucky you might end up with a high priced item. Also, you can start doing this in your mid 50s and actually level up in the process.
