Best sets for solo play

BrokenString

Hi! I'm looking for alternatives here, I play a StamDK and I'm doing pretty well since I can solo craglorn group delves and dailies with low cp.

Im using:
Blood spawn = Dawnbreakers
Fortified Brass = Survivability
Bone Pirate = Sustain for steel tornado

Any ideas how to make my DK more solo effective?

Thank you

For stamina
Hunding Rage + NMG or (Shacklebreaker or Kvatch Gladiator ) + 2 piece what ever you like.

Magicka
Julianos + Seducer + 2 piece torug

I have a bow/bow stamsorc who is a very survivable soloist. She's wearing Hundings, Spriggans and Slimecraw - effective and easy to get. Both stamsorc and stamDK have good access to major brutality and major resists boost so I'd imagine there's some similarity.

I've had really good luck with Nmg and kvatch. 2 heavy 5 med on Stam. Chudan works well if you don't have easy access to maj protect and Maj ward.

Alright good alternatives. But I see a lot of damage sets, keep in mind that dead dont deal damage and low cp is really easy to die. Chudan works the same as my FBrass, for damage I rely on Dawnbreaker on a lot of trash and steel tornado, that's why Bone Pirate and Blood Spawn. If I dont have a defensive set I die in one or two hits from a boss.

So, anything better to survive or deal more damage that I could replace one of these three?

Gotcha, I run an imperial so, for now, I rely on the passive heal to keep me going plus bloodcraze as my spammable and bloodthirst for hot. I built for WD/crit only with sets and went skills route for healing. What content are you soloing btw? Are you trying vet or normal dungeons solo?

Actualy Im soloing Craglorn, didnt try solo dungeons yet because of low cp. I also spam blood craze on bosses, after the dots. Healing is resolving vigor and for buffs igneous weapons and volatile armor. On trash pulls is noxious breath, steel tornado and dawnbreaker.

My solo stamina default is Hunding's, Spriggan's, and Velidreth (or Stormfist, Slimecraw...). Bone Pirate sounds good too but I don't have it yet.

I don't spend enough time with my stamina builds though. My magplar gets most of my attention.

If you have low cp, that means less cp in penetration, so I'd recommend spriggans.

If you want something that does damage, snares, and heals you then Bahraha's Curse is actually quite good.

For my (MANY) stamina builds, I usually go with Hundings/Spriggans with a 2 piece stam (unless you have a monster set but I personally wouldn't waste the rings if you're not CP160). If you have a crit build, NMG is ok as well.

Bone Pirate does offer decent sustain, but as long as you weave heavy attacks you can generally keep your sustain up for the burst damage needed for solo play.

If you ARE CP160, try:

Mighty Chudan - Major Resolve and Major Ward on the 2 piece PLUS extra spell/phys resists one the one piece - hard to beat for solo unless you have both of those already and nothing to swap them out with

Blood Spawn - Getting extra ultimate PLUS tons of resist when you take damage (which you do when soloing) is pretty nice too

Sellistrix - While not as sexy as some others, it procs pretty often for some damage but also a 3 second stun. Stunned enemies can't attack, so it works well with solo if you're doing trash - if soloing WB or Dungeon boss, try one of the other sets

Troll King - Again, not as sexy, but the extra received healing and boost to health recovery if under 50% is pretty effective. Of course, it assumes you have some self heal :-)
