Like the title, what bosses can a veno solo from TT1-1 through 3-1?
[a list of bosses a veno can solo with and without a herc (in a solo/squad mode) would be nice and helpful]

I do know that soloing in the Twilight Tower is a bad choice for money making, since you can grind the nearly the same amount that it would take to do a TT.

But I'm impatiente when it comes to waiting for a party to form for TT 1-1 for mats, and since I play only the mage classes, I'd like to use this opprotunity to gain mats for all my arcane characters. (I currently do not own a Baby Hercules, and will probably not get one)

If there are other guides/walkthroughs/threads out there, please do link them; thanks for any replies, and sorry for not taking the time to go through the forum to seek it out myself.

    Idk If u can do even solo HH yet seeing as you a hercless lvl 60 veno. You'll have to wait a few lvls and even then the first and basically only mats you'll grind are for lvl 70 wrists.

    Hope that helped don't mean to offend you about being hercless I don't have one either I got nix first, but gl!!!

    I'm curious as to read more responses posted here, since I need more information about solo'ing TT 1-1.

    I know there're tricks to solo'ing the bosses.
    You have to stand in certain places and cast certain skills at certain times.
    I don't know every single detail, but there's some vague information in the guide: "Arcane/Robe Veno guide".
    http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=234672

    It's under "Vipenalt" and "Dimentora", the two bosses whose defeat are necessary to complete TT 1-1.

    I'll keep an eye on this page for more information.

    Also, you might want to consider getting a tele and asking for a patient, high-level venomancer on your server to walk you through solo'ing TT, verbally or physically.
    That's my plan for when I log in tomorrow. :D

    Good luck, and remember to bring rez scrolls! ^^
    Looking for better siggy! PM me for details.

    mmmmm.
    well.
    Without herc u cant solo SQUAD mode.
    U can do solo mode when u're the lvl to enter in that TT u need.
    [Until 3-1 of course. After 3-1 Idk.]
    I think u also need some -channelling gears, and a magmite, or better, a glacial walker, as tank pet. Get and lvl up also an eldergoth marksman. As lurer/tank for some bosses.

    Ok. Let's start.

    1-1 solo mode:
    -chientien: u can tank with GW (glacial walker) or EM (eldergoth marksman): the first tank him melee, the second ranged. Tanking it melee, u can use aggro skills like bash, also to make more dmges.
    -drummer: GW tanks, he has no aoe in solo mode. So dont worry.
    -vipenalt: u need it in 1-1 just for chrono wheel quest. Doesnt drop mats. So dont worry.
    1-2/1-3 solo mode: idk.

    2-1 solo mode:
    -fataliqua has a physical aoe, to avoid it, tank it ranged with EM (to tank ranged, send EM without skills active, clicking just on atk), and heal him from max range.
    -cosmo: no problems, just use GW.
    -feng: seems that has aoe and hp debuff also in solo mode.btw I'm not sure. GW and some pots :)
    -wurlord: tankable by GW without problems. Always need to kill 4 of them.

    2-2/2-3/3-1 solo mode idk.

    I never did a solo mode. I'm talking according what I remember of what I read on this forum, tryin to help u.
    As "herc'd" veno I used to solo tt1-1 squad mode to make my tt60 weap. From 70 I used mold armor, and only now I'm runnin 1-x tts to make foots and wrists tt 70 and 80 to make the gold ones at 90. :)

    Another thing:
    Idk how are strong mobs in solo mode. But in squad mode they were almost able to 1shot me. So, if u're runnin it, and u see that them hit hard, use always bramble hood when u're luring :) 1-x are the TTs where a veno has to work a lot to lure and clean the way.
    When u'll learn good how lure, and how avoid aggro range of some mobs, u wont need either to unsummon-summon pet. :)

    Oh, drop rate in solo mode is low. And they costs always some subs.

    Hope that this helps. GL and HF :)

    1-x solo mode: Only Chintien and the drummer appear. Drummer doesn't have AOE. No Vipenalt or Soulbanisher (for Chrono Quest, you need Vipenalt in 1-1 high squad and drummer in 1-2 squad anyway.)

    2-1 solo mode: Only Fataliqua, Feng and Wurlord appear. Feng doesn't have AOE, and Wurlord doesn't have clones. Fataliqua does have AOE, but it's short enough range you can heal a walker (or other melee pet) from outside it.

    Sorry replying to this dead thread, but I have another question that relates to venos soloing TTs.

    So let's say I'm lv 90 veno, and I decide to solo a TT1-1 squad/solo, would the drop rate still be the same as if I was a lv 60 veno? or would it be lower because I'm a higher lv?

    Mob drops will be lower, boss drops should be the same.
