    [​IMG] A couple of weeks ago I saw someone post a message about soloing as a blade. It sounded cool so I started that as well.(I probably seem unoriginal, but it caught my eye and i wanted to see how it is) But im curious, do they have a stronghold?

    [​IMG] Certainly, you are a bard so you can get the bard stronghold.
    I don't think playing a Blade is unoriginal, I've played lots of times but never any Bard.

    By the way, I believe the Bard stronghold is the playhouse under the Five Flagons Inn.

    Welcome to the board. Please let us know how you are progressing. It should be a challenge.

    Eh.. I'm soloing a Blade.. level 16.

    I just did my first playhouse sub-quest and it was cool.. go for the stronghold, although the quest involved to get it is really tough. Min level ~13-15..

    Anything else you need?

    I second Black Rose. You'll be fighting a nasty Ta'anari, a cambion with Abi-Dalzims and all sorts of protections, and a whole bunch of nasty portal traps. Perhaps one of the most difficult things in the game is wandering somewhere and suddenly finding yourself surrounded by three angry Clay Golems. (or Werewolves, Efreeti, Githyanki, etc.)

    Well, the cambion was easy for me. I just used secret word on him then Power Word: Stun. Piece of cake. Mmm...cake :D.
