I’m convinced the answer to this is Ixiblat Fer and the character to use is a well geared 60 Shaman with Puppet Strings, Reaper of the Dead, and a SoulFire. Prove me wrong.

At that point, you might as well just play a cleric and give your charmed pet a tash stick and truncheon. Given enough cheese leeway, practically anything pre-velious is possible. Especially with 20 years of wiki knowledge. It just becomes a matter of how much you want to spend on consumables simply for bragging rights?

The problem with clr and charmed pet approach is that you can’t preslow unless you land a hail mary mallet slow ahead of time and I have a very hard time seeing any allurable pet landing any type of slow proc on Ixi even if you pretash it (which in itself would be a massive pita). And without slow clr will run out of mana before ixi is dead, guaranteed. If I were a betting man I’d put my money on the shm with strings and some CH charges.

Dunno if it’s as simple as bragging rights but that is one aspect I suppose. When I was most into shm solo challenges I really wanted to test the boundaries of the mechanics with every tool at my disposal. Soloing Ixi was my Moby Dick but then you play a bit longer, become a bitter vet and in the end can’t care less about try-hards doing solo challenges.

Probably a level 1 erudite magician with 0 skill in piercing, offence and defence, and no points in str or agi, killing an even con mob first try.

Of course here on p1999 we start with a non classic +5 in our default weapon type.

don't @ me if you can't solo tantor self buffed without clickies

[branamil]

Tantor and strong horn don't summon, they are a joke

[NextToTheGodsP99]

Inb4 long exposition about why druids are solo gods cause they can cast targetted sow, animal charm and run in circles

[zodium]

if the lack of summoning makes the mob so easy, go ahead and kill it on your non druid

oh wait

you can't
