What are the upper limits of soloing here on green? Are Vox and Naggy doable? Trak? Or did that come after PoP?
Right now in working on a lesser charbone skeleton in KT, but once i master that i was just wondering what the limits are on p99.

I always like to level my enchanter on whites and yellows inside dungeons.
I start at 32 trying to solo a hierophant cloak. Around 32 the enchanter class really opens up your options.
Up till then you can do some soloing but, it's not as fun and grouping in MM is just too good exp to pass up IMO.
Level 34-36 soloing at the bar was such an awesome challenge.
Personally, I find as much enjoyment trying to solo tough EXP+Item camps as a level 30-50 enchanter as I would at a super hard camp at 60!
Look up solo artist challenge to find cool posts about this topic for high level targets.
There's some big game hunters on these boards.
Monks in velious are beasts, squaring off against big baddies no problem.
But traditionally it's enchanter & shaman that would down the interesting solo challenges.

These are some of the legends. There's more!
Triangle iirc was one of the first big boys.

Helsia mindreaver is a lvl 61 cleric,can be enchanter solo. I think that's the upper limits for a big mob for enchanters.
Liaa soloed general vgerra with a puppet strings/manastone cleric. They also did queen dizok and the spider queen in dragon necropolis, who is very red to a level60. Likely hitting the limits of what's possible there.

Queen Raltaas? Color me ignorant but that seems like a very good kill.

38khp level 61 (and I believe maybe sometimes 62) solo.
Fairly easy if time consuming solo for several classes as it doesn’t summon and isn’t the fastest runner.
Casts ice dragon breath. I believe these may be some kind of primitive dragon kin, like taking ‘wyrm’ to it’s natural conclusion.

McCreary (near BIS monk from GG) solo'd Faydedar on green this week. Used 13 wort pots. Dunno if solo Faydedar had been done before.

Was that druid or natural?

I recall on live by charming some insignificant moster with tons of HPs that you could as a druid, solo Lodizial, but I remember then removing said little animal once we started doing it lol, not idea if doable here, havent checked or even remember what mob was we charmed now.

I think that was Corudoth, I'm not sure what nerf it was, but probably made it immune to charm and/or other spells later on.

Derp hooded black cloak! (https://wiki.project1999.com/A_cloaked_dhampyre) :D
at 32 it's as much as a challange as anything else you'd camp at 60 so is quite fun!
Man I wish I could go back to 99 and solo that guy at 32 after a week of grinding. Would be legendary. Then I'd feel like I really made it at life.

Not to diminish the sick kill, but I'm gonna be an old man and yell at a cloud for a second to say I really wish they would nerf worts and consumables in general. Never saw this abuse in the classic timeline. Like did wort pot even exist in velious? It certinaly didn't exist pre-kunark. Its zam entry doesn't appear until late 2002 and I don't see it on alt.games.everquest until 2003.

Even if they weren't (they were) he could've used a reaper instead so it's a moot point. Nice cloud yelling though!

Yes they did, I remember seeing a video on everlore of a monk soloing naggy during KUNARK era live. He spammed healing pots throughout the fight. Not sure if it was stinging wort or not(20 years ago roughly).

Are you sure it was kunark era? I see a similar mention of this on alt.games.everquest is 2003 https://groups.google.com/g/alt.games.everquest/c/1KO7z3RrefA/m/I4jUBTKjixwJ and the receipt is https://web.archive.org/web/20030801091819/http://edit.store.yahoo.com/lib/gonuso-po-images/POnews-May15-2003.html
Like I totally believe they were in era, but is there actually proof? The truth is out there.
Given how central wort pots are to raiding, I feel like there should be mentions of this somewhere in era (pre Dec 2001).

You might be right, if I could see the actual video maybe I could tell.

reapers and worts arent really the same.
worts should be nerfed here, theyre ridiculous and prop up so much of the type of gameplay they clearly tried to nerf with the clicky changes / soulfire change etc a few years back.
on that note reaper should be SK useable only too.

no just remove it, it's overpowered
also remove puppet strings entirely and make all enchanter charms last a maximum of 1 minute

If a necro could get to 59 before naggy or vox got banish and their 59 pet had the innate fearless (which they don't get before dragon banish is in game) AND they corpsed a bunch of reapers (massive corpsing is such a gigachad move, btw, but you know this) THEN they could solo naggy or vox.
