ZeuZLoD I do not have much help to offer on the subject however, I have been able to solo with my build. NB is a little rough. But, depending on lvl what helps a lot would be duel wield swords. can choose either medium or heavy. I used shadow cloak, veiled strike. That is what I would open with. Mixing strife in to self heal. Twin slashes, and then assassin's blade to finish them off. once you lvl up you can morph them obviously. It may not be to much help but its what I did.
