Hardest character to Solo

What character do you consider the hardest to solo I am getting a bit bored and I fancy a challenge I personally think it will be either a Bard or a Druid but I dont know(I never use these classes)

I think an Avenger, a Jester or a Diviner (no summons!) or maybe a Transmuter (no spells to remove protection!)

Fighter: Wizard Slayer
Ranger: Beastmaster
Paladin: all strong, so no big challenge there
Thief: all strong, but admit Assassins don't get many points for thieving abilities (so hard to disarm traps and such)
Bard: Jester
Cleric: all strong, so no big challenge there
Druid: probably the Avenger
Wizards: Transmuter, followed by Wild Mage (if you have ToB installed)

Barbarians, Monks, and Sorcerers are all good for soloing.

The hardest I've soloed through the game so far, is maybe the Beast Master, or the Skald.
There's pretty many kits I havent tried yet, though.

Btw, Nerull, I think the Wild Mage is the easiest mage-kit to go through with. I havent completed it yet, but I'm in the Underdark, and havent had many troubles.

see ya!

Wait until a wild surge turns you into a squirrel in the middle of an important battle (no one to turn you back, can't turn yourself back, and can't initiate dialog to buy something to turn you back). Another good one is getting a dragon to Near Death, and then a wild surge healing him. The big thing is just how lucky you are; I would hardly consider it easy to solo, when you not only have to worry about enemies, but your own magic as well.

Then again, you could always use your most powerful magic of all, the mighty "Time Reversal" (load a saved game). I guess that doesn't make them so bad after all. I would then go with Diviner as my second.

I think that Enchanters would be the most difficult. No sequencers, few attack spells.
