I only remember hearing about monks with fungi and a t-staff being able to solo in Velks, but that was before the monk AC nerf. After that it was back to groups only for exp in Velks.

Only thing I really recall about Velks was it was THE place to level in your higher 50's no questions asked. However My characters were already max level.

I will say for reading purposes in this thread it would be smart to make a thread for Velks in the Velious Beta forums AS WELL as one for Siren's Grotto.

At 60 in Luclin Velks was the place to be for lvl 60's to solo for AAs (including warriors). I think though, Velks @ launch was a rough place and then it got severely toned down after a little bit.

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let there be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it.

A lot of people didn't experience the original version. Velks was near-deserted by all but raid groups for a while because the zone was strait rape. After the revamp you could do fine with a rag tag group of whatever, but before it, soloing spiders was out of the question (due to a really nasty dot proc, hitting too hard and lots of MR and hp on spiders).

It took a very well tuned group to go anywhere, and even then there were no guarantees because CCing was kind of a nightmare.
