Wrong. Tons of people have felt this way for decades. Plenty of people in this thread have said it. And it's the reality of soloing in EQ - those things simply aren't available all the time, even if your character has the best gear possible and infinite money. If you are camped out in some remote area to farm something and you log on one day and the zone is dead and nobody can come help, then you can only depend on yourself and what your character is able to do sustainably.

The majority of solo challenges have in fact been completed with no outside buffs or consumables, and it's why things like solo self-found exist. Because people are trying to give themselves an actual SOLO challenge and see how far they can push the capabilities of a single class without using Pay-2-Win items.

But of course, that's why there are different kinds of challenges. If you want to see how far a character can go while using Puppet Strings, then go do it. Just don't expect to be considered in the same category as other types of challenges.

That does NOT MEAN that completing a challenge with buffs disqualifies it from being considered a solo kill.
It disqualifies it from being an S+ kill for the purposes of solo challenges, seeing as there was factually outside assistance. There are many different tiers available for people to attempt.

Funny how you've completely ignored everything that was said about the math and mechanics. You know you're wrong and have no way to argue. So you just resort to Trumpian spamming in order to try and deflect, deflect, deflect. You don't care about the truth, nor trying to build something better, nor trying to accurately categorize what EQ players have done. You only care about your own ego.
