I wish I knew why everyone was having such trouble :). I have solo'd up
to yellow undead. The only time I have any major problems is if my spells
do minimal damage a cpl times and I run out of mana, or there is more than
1 undead on me. Hrmmm. What server you on, maybe I can show you what
I do sometime. Its a shame you can't solo. It is fun to get away from
the heal med heal med routine sometimes. (Well I still med between fights
but you know what I mean. :) ).
