Do wizards do decent for solo if needed?
If not what are other classes that can solo if necessary from 1 - 60? I guess what I want is a class that has that ability. In EQ1 I used to play a chanter, but when I quit they were masters in groups but solo depended highly on the situation.
I tried a necro, which was not for me. Since this is my first character on P1999 that complicates this as I cannot lend my new character a hand financially or through gear. | ||

Wizards are fine for solo if you don't mind quadding (with a decent mana pool), or burning a target down and going afk for 5 minutes. I've played with a wizard on red and solo'd to 50 but decided it wasn't my bag...so just gets used as a porter occasionally.
Top soloing classes? In no particular order... - Druids - Necromancers - Enchanters - Shamans - Bards (swarm kite) - Wizards - Mages (involves a lot of pet destroying due to the 50% damage rule) - Clerics (with undead nukes, you're a wizard! See the Swish 1-50 cleric solo guide!) - Monks (less so, unless you have a fungi tunic) - Shadowknights/Rangers (slow but doable) - Paladins (ugh) ...shaman is probably the most versatile. Most classes ARE capable, it just comes down to what you want to play. Shaman/bard/cleric/enchanter is all doable on a low budget... can't speak for some of the others. | ||

I mean, you get charm breaks when you don't want them sometimes, and you get streaks of bad luck sometimes, and you play badly sometimes. But it's certainly not a struggle to earn xp just because charmed pets can break charm. Solo chanter isn't necessarily the absolute fastest solo xp, but it's right up there. | |||

Enchanter Charm duration and even having it stick to start with is pretty much based on Charisma on here. Need 200 or more to be pretty consistent.

Every class can solo "decently" (or better) from 1-50 except for warrior and rogue. Might be boring blowing up undead with a cleric 1 at a time or slowly beating down mobs with a paladin and having to heal up and med after, but it is still halfway decent xp if you pick your zone and quarry well.
Untwinked wizards are mediocre solo at best, imo, since you won't probably have enough mana to quad consistently from 29-60... and killing 1 target at a time with nukes is, while doable, too slow to call it good. Oh, like Swish said though, it's a pretty nice gig if you like AFKing between kills to do something IRL so you aren't bored with all the med time. | ||
