Subject: RE: [eqbards] Soloing bards


Hehe I generally abhor soloing as well but recent key events convinced me to
give it a try. First, I won a Selos Drum off Naggy. Second, I was 49th
level and wanted to ding 50 ASAP. Third, the changes to the EXP system. So
I went do Dreadlands and tried chant kiting for the first time. Getting
from 49 to 50 was the easiest and fastest I have ever made a level (aside
from newbie levels). I didn't actually time it, but I would guess it only
took me five hours to ding 50. The only downtime I had was when I had to
stop pulling and get another SOW buff. What little damage I took from a mob
was healed back while I was looking for another mob to pull.

Only problem with chant kiting I have is that it is boring as hell and not
really a challenge. As soon as I got 50, I headed back into Karnors. Don't
intend to ever do it again unless I can't find a group.

I've rarely solo'd since level 5 or 6, apart from the occasional experiment
on a low blue or green, I'm just not all that good at soloing and don't
really care for the tactics bards need to employ to be successful at it.
