Hmm.. harmony. It's an outdoor zone. Failing that, run away with SoW really fast. And yeah, it'll make you KoS pretty quick in Highpass / WFP.

I think what I did at that level range was just look up monk soloing suggestions, and figured I can do anything a monk can do. And w/ slow regen ds root, snare splitting.. You pretty much can.

Thanks for advices! I started killing some Freeport guards and dwarfs since It came to my mind that I never go there anyway so I don't mind the faction drops.

Its been very very slow killing guards, much faster just group up in KC and dps/pull. But I want to make some money too. Im 52 now and its painfully slow as solo, using magic/bow and melee at 60% hp health of mob.

Getting Chloroplast at 55 helps alot for solo melee?

Dwarves... Do you have your epic? Because there's a Kaladim portion.

I know this thread is about solo, but really, just do a /who for priesr classes and get a duo going. At 52 if you can find a 39+ cleric you're golden. One of my main strategies when leveling a melee is to find a preist significantly lower than myself, because it is a win/win situation. They get crazy exp because they're killing mobs way higher than they would normally, and you get good exp because they take so much less due to the level difference. With shaman and druids levels are a little more important because you're relying more on buffs than just complete heal - for druids I want to say 44 is a big level in that regard.

If you are going to solo, definitely do it outdoors. DL seems like the best option because you have plenty of room to fight around KC, and can even sneak inside to beg for buffs. Finding an enchanter enroute to KC who will give you VoG or C2, or druid to toss you a potg will speed things up a lot solo. Outdoor is also nice because you have room to kite if necessary. Root/snare a mob and regen up a bit if a fight is close. It'll definitelt be slower than a duo though.

Seriously though, don't be shy and just send people unsolicited tells. I've gotten a ton of exp by just doing "/who all 39 50 cleric" (or shaman/druid) and sending a tell to everyone who wasn't already in an exp zone to see if they wanted to duo.

Im 54 now but loosing interest in my ranger.. what did you do 50+ that was fun? Got any advice for fun stuff u can farm solo that sells for a few hundred pp?

I feel that druid is so much easier solo just sittning down while dotting and regain mana instead of standing up bowing to 50% before melee and then mana is gone on roots and dots. Or else I just end up assisting in KC...

You're in the 50s. Of course it's painfully slow [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

If you haven't a cloak of shadows or soiled bag now is a good time to solo in SolB at bats zone line to earn them. Keep selling the soiled bags until you get your cloak as that is the rarer drop (both are pretty common though; the mob that drops them spawns 25% of the time every 20 minutes, bag drops 75% of the time, cloak the other 25%).

Thinks to do in 50s:

Lots of different camps in Seb with a few fun ranger loots mid 50s.

Work on epics (swiftwind pretty easy with a guild as no particularly rare parts required, and the worn effect gives a big boost to your mainhand dps). Joining sky raids to work on the cloak and bow quests there might be fun for a few weeks.

Group some Pillar dragons in Western Wastes. Joining Ring Wars... Just get your nose out there and see whats happening. If nothing else /who all your level and ask those people what they are upto and if they 'need' ranger assistance.

Okay, not much of this is solo stuff, but really the late game is about team work.

You went from sk to ranger, right?...and you're wanting to solo?

Druids are versatile (root-rot, charm, fear, quad kite, group when you can....)

Necromancer and enchanter can solo pretty easily as well.

Monk and shaman are good in groups and solo, but they are very common.

Bard is super fun if you can handle it....preferably in a group or regular kiting. Swarming is lame...
