If you have a mage of some sort, you can scribe all the scrolls you see, this way you will also get a lot of exp. I actually think it is easier to play with one character than 6, since I don't have to protect anyone but the main character.
As Rikard said, the exp is divided to your party members, so if you only have one, you will be much more powerful. |

I've never done it, but were I to, I would probably use a dual or multiclass fighter/mage type or kits thereof, because a solo mage is suicide unless you rest for about five years of game time, and a fighter won't stand a chance without the anti-magic spells like breach. Playing solo does have an advantage in that one might use "Protection From Lightning" and then unleash a storm that Umberlee would be scared of without harming your other party members. Same for sunfire, a terrific but probably underutilized spell, because of party endangerment. Playing solo also allows for high levels earlier in the game. I'm with you, it's tough enough with six, even with big 'ol Minsc (and Boo).

If you remove the exp. cap (which I don't consider a cheat, because you earn all the exp) you level up so fast, and if you dual class, it is hard, but in the end, you are a god.

Actually, it is possible to solo the game with virtually any class (pure, dual, or multi) without cheating and removing exp. cap. I believe the trick is to learn how to use your class to the full extent and preferably to play the game at least once before so that most items and quests are familiar. After that it becomes easy (the first dungeon is probably the most difficult thing). In fact, some battles that were a nightmare with a group, took me much less time with solo player.
