Solo DC about to respec, recommendations requested

I play 90% solo, I can solo the easier stronghold HEs with difficulty at a GS just under 2K, I feel there must be a build out there that will make this easier, any suggestions ?

I don't care about being able to heal groups.

then go righteous (dont worry about party buffs), stack you armor pen to 40% (assumes you really only care about killing trash mobs). Don't worry about recovery. use BotS to set your DOT and divine light as your empowered nuke.

I agree (told by a Virtuous): go righteous . You will have fun.

Maybe some sages can shed some light on another problem I have. My pet is a galeb duhr (tanky guy) with 3 items that add +10% threat. If I do nothing whatsoever and my pet attacks, everything ignores it and attacks me regardless of it attacking them. Is something broken, I see other classes' galeb duhrs working fine, mine worked fine pre mod 6 up to level 60 soaking aggro while I healed it.

get some more power on that guy and consider getting an owl for yourself is all i can say (active bonus is a threat reduction on you). In any scenario agro is tough for clerics. Heals cause agro, DPS cause agro, and we are doing both (even if we are righteous). I party often with a GWF who is .5 ilvl higher than me. He does massive damage... he screams everytime something walks away completely ignoring him to attack my DC. GFs are obviously better for holding agro but still...
