Default How well do Swashbucklers solo greened-out dungeons?

I know they're one of the best scout-based solo classes. I am speccing my AA towards AGI and INT (for FD) then STR because I solo most of the time.

Anyhow, a long time ago I ran a monk. The best way I found to make money was to run dungeons or instances that were green heroics to me. I was able to play very late at night so I wouldn't bother actual experience groups, or I'd find an unused part of a dungeon to kill named mobs in. I especially liked Nektropos, because I could solo all the named in there and not bother anyone else.

Can swashbucklers do this? I've tried to think about it logically. My monk could do it because she could heal and throw out some massive DPS. My swashbuckler doesn't heal, but she does stun a lot more and possibly puts out even more DPS. The only downside is, most named mobs see stealth, but you can always start with the double ranged attack which (at least at my level) does equal or more damage than a backstab.

Do you guys ever solo green heroic named?

Cool! Good to know, thanks!

I am only level 19 right now, but I'm anxious to get higher just to see what I can do. I love a good solo challenge.

Once you get higher you'll start soloing with Vitality Breaches, and stun poisons, which very much help you take down the heroic mobs.

I solo 4 names in karnors, but I have to resort to kiting sometimes. =)
