60 torp shammy - solo cash camps?

[Malrubius]

Thanks for the suggestions. I also found this (somewhat outdated now) link - http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=244179

I have solo'd WW (tier 4) dragons before, and right now I'm soloing cliff golems in OT in the hopes I'll eventually get lucky.

To answer some of the questions, I just don't get online much anymore, and when I do, it's often just for 30 minutes or so, tops. So grouping isn't really a viable option, nor is a long involved crawl (unless it's to get to a camp where I can camp out and return anytime I want).

Check out the solo artist challenge and slowly work through it.

Someone should do a proper velious addition to this. Something well thought out and presented clearly.

torp shm can pretty much solo most of it. POM is fun for the first year and velks is boring after a week or so, seb is usually ok but you can eat the trains, WW dragons are fun but need a tank/monk for 6 necks.

you can farm spells from wurms outside of vp if you are good and generally it takes a lot of lucky spell checks on slows and dots to do that without a tank duo.

having soloed on live for several years or two boxing with a tank ( on live not here) i would honestly recommend getting a sk pally or monk to duo with or a chanter. Life gets boring running solo and being antisocial.

Snares are godly but paladin lay hands and stuns will save the day and chanters need no sales pitch in a shm duo.

The closest we have so far is: http://wiki.project1999.com/Solo_Artist_Challenge. However it was just the result of a few people in a single thread suggesting Velious additions for the old challenge, so it's definitely not yet a fully-finished product.

It is a wiki though, so if anyone is motivated to improve it they can. Or, if anyone starts a new thread on the topic, I'll happily update the wiki in response.

As a torp shaman stuck at 60, I assume you're after quick/simple kills, there's old world (Guk/SolB) and Kunark (Sebilis). You wont be soloing anything in Kael that could even drop armor, just using your spells anyhow. And the risk of trying isn't worth it the drop rates are low and meant for raiding and fast kills. Velks mobs have duo+ HPs, really high for solo. And that's just the easy camps (ramp spiders). Sebilis can be nice cash if you are lucky, and persist at it. Drop rates on anything more than gems or Kunark armor is really low (SBC/RBG/etc). Use line of sight every encounter in there solo, especially with wizards. Keep gate loaded in Sebilis and bind outside the portal. Long wait for a score usually but when it hits it pays off. The reason I bored of the solo torp shaman was the constant canni-ing, especially after clearing a 3 mob encounter and being oom or near it, unless you get lucky and a chanter hits you with a c2, which in a group you will often have on all the time. Downtime due to mana regen sucks when oom if you want to be most efficient and canni it all back. Or you could take the lazy route, fight until not enough for the next battle, gate out, sit and afk a while. If you choose to hold a camp like NG, you lose the gate/afk luxury when oom. In my experience it was fun for maybe 500 or so hours, solo. Found a couple of SBCs (Bok/Kor shamans) and a few obulus death shrouds and various valueless spells 51-54. If you fight Krup shamans or wizards past NG you'll wanna make sure you malo, they are resisters. And always, keep them separated, so only one is in line of sight of you and your pet. They also summon so they are risky, I'd avoid soloing them altogether.

Are the kael mobs that drop armor much harder than bjrakor the cold? I soloed him on a 60 shm with relatively shitty gear. That's a camp you could do and sell loot rights to?

You can solo some of the +6s, i feel like pulling those actually got easier with leash aggro. Ayillish is easiest, Ionat next and Entariz is 3rd easiest. Terrain is your friend.

Are Coldain heads worth it to camp? You can tear through those in the mines.

Coldain Skin dudes worth it to kill anymore?

[Jimjam]

Are thurg armor drops really worth that much?

Even when I try give MQs away for free no one is interested.

I was thinking of trying this. Would I want to pump up CR or MR for Ayillish?
