I have a mage in carrow atm, and I’m finding it hard as hell to solo lvl. I just wanted to know how you guys did it efficiently or if i even should be bothered.

Depend on you gear spell items usage,
Fire mage with extra points in e shield and combo exlier or energy/exp/health exiled with few restore potion should be fine if you opponent are 2-3 level higher then you. How you are leveling ? Which build and gear.

Hey cookie
![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif)
finally decided to step foot in the big boys game now huh.
Carrow level I completely ignored focus offhands and went shield mage with Aggy grim, rings direct damage and or whatever makes your skill higher works for the meantime.
Don't forget to use eshield.
Armour auras aren't that important.
Time your attunes in case you do die and have to recast.
Have somewhat stock of restos and tell yourself when to use it.
Doesn't hurt to use a bear mount over a focus one.
Rabbit pet (not required but useful)
Otherwise you're good.
P.s. I did these with xp,hp,en lixs no combos.

This varies on people but for my instance I kept my health above 3k at all times, for dps people say it's better to not use an aura and use the occult but if you can grab a mordy helm which adds some health then everything can go towards focus

I just group leveled cuz I was pore and liked staying as a glass cannon. Other options are to use a shield, combos, or resto spam or a combo of all 3

I soloed basically all of 1-190, in 2013. Now, it should be easier then back then, because of crits, and new gear, so its totally possible.
I went high/full focus, only having 63-400 hp 1-110, and 1-1.8k 110-190. You'll probably want more when you hit tower though...
E shield is your friend
Bear helms are op(using the right godly one will give you twice the armor of a shield, ON A HELM SLOT)
Freeze mounts are great for halting dmg, gaining a sigil tick, and readying skills(especially as an ice mage)
When standing around and doing nothing while the enemy is attacking you, back up, itll make them have to run to attack, taking less overall dmg
Maximize damage, the shorter time you are in a fight, the shorter time the enemy has to hit you(and you get more xp per lix too)
I didnt use sigils, restos, or any fancy lix either, just super xps(though if you dont have or want to use bonus pts for e boost, you may want sigils/e lix)

Bear helm ?

Bear helm ?
They are event helmets, and there are 2 kinds.
The white bear helm binds on equip, but gives +400 fire, or +400 ice magic, and some other stats, which is good til you find something better.
The black bear helms give up to 500 resistance to one resistance, so as long as you wear the right one for the situation its extremely op.
I'm referring to the black bear helms in my post though.

I'm clanless so my response will vary from plenty others but I have soloed since level 1. I just usually do like 3 points focus 2 vitality. Currently using focus offhand but shield is 100% surely better for solo and dmg is still close to the same. Fire build is what i use, because as solo, it really hurts to miss an ice blast lol.
These are the skills i max in order for a solo mage
Fire bolt
Fire attunement
Firestorm
Lure of fire
Energy shield
Extras in e boost if u have any
Gear I use
90 focus crown from 150 lux shop
Ancient wyrmbone chest and legs (from shop)
Ancient beastbone boots and gloves (from quest)
Preceptor ammy (145 focus 90 vitality)
Godly brace of focus and vitality
Rings
Royal fire attune
Royal fire bolt
140 glowstone lux ring (65vit/foc)
Grand fire attune
And golden skull health pendant (because why not use an item that is 1/1 on your server? Fingal btw, Lol
My damage seems very good and even since switching to the focus I don't use much pots, but before when i used shield i used none. Also, dont level on trolls if u solo haha. Level on firbolgs.
