for those who dont have a fungi or any twink gear, which stats should be focused on to reduce the amount of damage taken?

I'm finding at lvl 40 I get beaten up so much in splitpaw and need to wait 6 mins for mend to pop before killing another tech mal

Stop soloing as a melee at level 40, even as a monk. It's a bad idea. Even monks with a 200k twink budget duo with shamans.

Saying what needs to be said. Mobs do seem to start ramping up in difficulty with levels much more than players around this spot.

Great guide! Thanks for sharing!

The mobs auto-membluring under level 35 was news to me! Explains what a monk in my group in paw the other night wouldn't...couldn't figure out how he was splitting stuff so inexplicably fast lol

Speaking as a 200k twink monk, I solo'd just fine 1-55 thanks.

From 40, just do CT to 45/6. Then do specs/loio goblins to 51. Then HHK/Hole to 55. I solo'd large portions of 55-60 as well in Perma and the Hole. Don't forget to bring bandages.

I'd say 45+ it steps up a level, then again 51+ then yet again 57+.

Context of the thread is levelling gearing brand new, babe.

Good to have context for what works at different gear levels though.

I stand by my soloing path advice twinked or not. It overlaps with the guide mainly, but adds a couple places (namely, Cazic Thule and the Hole).

Have you any more specific advice for soloing in CT/Hole? Like camps, how to get to camp, the best ways go break in, where to afk, etc?

And you did it slower than a duo would have, with fewer camp opportunities.
