Quote:hunters/locks in epics farm w/o much effort.
Well. They *are* epics, and hunter/locks ARE the rightfully advertised as the premier solo pve classes... Heck, in my prime I took on up to three elites at a time with my lock... and that was before death coil became so spammable.
Quote:If this isn't a solo game, then why can *those* classes do that solo
Actually, I believe most players start out choosing classes that seem cool, look good or the player identifies with. Solo doesn't really come in mind. No, it isn't a solo game. Go farm with friends. Its a LOT faster. Priest + mage pulls --> Extreme farming. Actually, I did priest + mage + lock quite on quite a few occasions, and just owned everything around us.
Lissa hit the nail on the head with spec, so I won't go there. Bite the bullet and partner up, as MMO's are innately social games and require more than one player more time total than you are solo'ing.
Oddly enough, Guild wars became extremely solo-able via hero followers with any skills/spells you're able to use across any class. So. Strangeness.
