My RK is an absolute unit and can take 10-12 easily even when im soloing instances. Im not sure how people are building out their RK's if you think they are squishy. I have been playing 15+ years and i think RK's are one of if not the best solo class.

RKs are great at higher levels for that, but they certainly do start out squishy. But yeah, my RK has an all-time high of soloing an entire mission of the Further Adventures of Bilbo Baggins with all the mobs from level 6 on her. It's great. I think it's like 26 mobs or so

Just got my Blue Champ to 77 on Fearless or +3 landscape *Solo* easily one of the best solo classes in the game for it cause it has just enough mit while having great healing but, has that very good DPS potential with either red or yellow. Made him especially for solo/duo delving.

Great video, I would put guardian on S right next to champion and warden however, it's quite tanky making it able to survive to a lot of enemies and with the red line and a two handed weapon it can do some pretty good damage too, I brought my guardian main up to almost level 130 soloing it all the way

Yes, re-watching it back, I probably would’ve changed the rankings around for some classes. But guard was a difficult one. My gut said A tier so I went with it purely on instinct.

Guardian is has now a great Dps spec ! AoE is there too +beleeds 4 bleeds are possible at same time on a harder target. So you can now even block with a 2H weapond. Im main tank on Guardian but whenever i get out of a Instance or Raid i go to Red Line +2H weapond

LM with pet is so strong. Pets got buffed so you can send pet and co troll the fight real easly with menny mobs. RedLline Fire lore is a instant skill with a burn that lets you run and hit mobs from far to grab a bunch of them then you ca aoe all of them and run again. The cyberatooT Tiger as AOE damage so it hits them all. If pet dies judt reesumon and send pet again to target ;) To farm Mining and Forester is the bes class lol the pet hold the mobs while you pick the Materials then your off to another one ;)

I think the ability to pick your battles as burglar is highly underrated. Your survivability relies on player knowledge and strategy rather than armor like tanks or even skill usage like the loremaster

Totally agree with any class is soloable. I've played for the entire 16 years and it's just a matter of knowing how to attack groups with the class you choose. No rush, take your time and think it through. By the way, Beorning I agree is the easiest but to me that also makes it the most boring! LOL

Nice video, S-tier Beorning in Man form is definitely something I need to check out in your other video. As for the LM, the most crucial aspect for me is the fact that Red LM's Wizard's Fire is a 3-target AoE without cooldown that can be cast on the move whether you face the target or not, which means that I'm usually just aggroing mobs while heading where I need to go, and killing the train of mobs that forms behind me while running away from them. Or, I'll just gather 15 mobs to one place using my bear, fry them and laugh like a madman. Another thing I find useful while soloing as LM or Captain is the fact that your pet can aggro mobs while you perform actions that could get interrupted, like gathering raw materials, using quest objects, etc.
@stpnwlf9

A lot of people also overlook the fact that a beorning can equip a bow. You have no bow skills, but triggering auto attack at range will fire your bow and it has a lot longer range than bees. Of course, the stats from putting a bow in that slot also help.

Your extensive experience *might* have skewed the impression of which classes are easier, especially compared to a newbie. In particular, I wouldn't think the Beorning is such a cakewalk for a newer solo player.

Blue hunter definitely belongs in S-tier. Reliable self-heals, many utility skills, and you can kite around anything while doing face-melting damage. I can solo the new Carn Dum T1 3-mans with my hunter in blue. I also tend to think that at present captains and champions are about equivalent, with only small tradeoffs in damage vs sturdiness.

puttign guardian in A tier is completely fair, their survivability is amazing but guardian for levelign just suffers from deminishing returns when it comes to survivability. though with the landscape dificulty increased they might have to go up to S tier.

I have played all classes, but the burglar was my first class when the game launched in 2007 and I honestly think if you avoid using stealth, you miss out on much of the fun of playing burglar as well as the survivability. My burglar never has to die - between choosing your battles via stealth (as others have noticed) and HIPS, you can avoid ever dealing with defeat.

Well you cant take away pet aspect from Lore Master becouse he is pet based class , but the things i did with it and my beloved Swampy ( Bog Guardian ) other classes can only dream about it . Really love my Lore Master , and after 14 yrs of playing lotro i can honestly say its still best for me . Shure was hard to play it sometime after 2-3 remakes it was extremly squishy but everything changed with new LI sistem and I also love my red traited Captain and just recently found my new love with Brawler , it feels so good smacking orcs and goblins lol :D Cheers for video x Also never played in groups with my LM , who needs a group when you are friend of the wild :D

I think the reason behind the captain having a companion is that a lot of the classes identitiy and a number of skills (the brother skills and realted things like inspire and call to arms) would be completely unusable in solo play otherwise. The companion gives you something to use them with
