I'd be surprised if any of them were doable at 60 or it would have been posted that someone did it before me on SK.org! The difference in damage intake ( both melee and spells) from Luclin to PoP is gigantic. Furthermore, SKs definitely don't have the sustainability at 60. Touch of Volatis (your standard -200 MR check lifetap) resisted frequently at 60, only Touch of Innoruuk (-500MR mod) reliably landed. Paladins didn't really get good solo heals til their Nife set.

Trakanon at 65 required SK PoP HT to prevent him from gating. You had to clear nearby adepts/priests from the banish point then pull him. Fighting him at the spawn point didn't work. I don't remember non-SKs doing him until 70.

i think understimate the massive ac upgrade and aswell atk and the aa income and easy rege dragon in kunark let me explain.

paladins aa heals improved the class realy alot with focus items my lame hot was healing me for 500 a tick, stupid golden rod or emp sword helped me to heal aswell full aa sk +vt gear +rune weapon from seru + new spear line : more dmg

in the case of trakanon it was harder to clean all jugs prot than himself. it wasnt about how long u could hold but rather how fast u could Burn him down . wich was prety doable with spears being able to hit for 1500 prety often .

paladins cure aa was key for mobs like Gore (and stupid anty fear aa lol), and original slay undead+ holyforge made short work of mobs like venril.

of course most people went to these figths max raid buffed no just Self buffed. the key point was being MAX AAS.
