Monster boss help.

I have a bunch of mini boss type monster listed in my quest log, what levels do I need to be at to (preferably) solo:

Haggist Geezlot
Yansheng
Striped Spider King
Farng.

Level 32, light armor veno, if that makes a difference. And before anyone mentions group, yes I know that's always an option, but I don't feel comfortable bothering other people. (I know I don't like random requests, others might feel the same way.)

    I managed to kill all of those mobs myself at around the level I received the quests for them (except maybe Yansheng, I can't remember if I took him myself or not; I think I did though). I'm a full mag veno though, so my pet heals had a bit more kick to them, but I don't think you should have that much more trouble than I did.

    what Lenley said, pretty much. pay attention to your pet's health bar, and you should be good; only Yansheng is likely to give you much trouble, and that because he appears to have some sort of stealth AOE. judging by what he did to me back when i soloed him, anyways. then again, you being LA, you might have an easier time with that than i did; dunno what kind of damage he does, exactly.

    I tried Yansheng.. and my only result on that was a dead pet. Farng was a pain, I did manage to get him to about half or less hp before he killed my pet. And well, with the pet gone I was pretty much screwed. Think if i get a couple better armor pieces I could do it?

    Haggist and Spider King should be easy.
    From memory Yansheng hits like a mother. You'll need a fair level difference before you can take him on.
    More armour won't really help with Farng, since if you're taking hits you're probably dead anyway, unless you have like a 30+level difference.
    Basically, up your heal as much as you can, and if it doesn't work then level your pet up a few more levels then try again.

    Venos are good for trying to solo bosses, since you can just send your pet in while you're flying and see how much damage the boss does. If it's too much, just fly away unharmed, otherwise, hang around, heal, and kill.

    farng i did at the level i got the quest, using a same-level glacial walker. i do recall he killed my pet the first attempt --- i got careless with the walker's health bar, tried to DD myself too much; second time i just spam healed the pet and got 'im done. (run to orchid temple and jump the wall, farng isn't smart enough to go around through the door and will eventually go home.)

    i forget how i did yansheng, think i did have a few levels on him after all now that i'm thinking about it. mostly what i recall is getting killed myself, repeatedly, long before my pet was near death and with the boss by the pet not by me. that's why i'm still insisting that yansheng's got some kind of AOE, even though i've never heard real confirmation of that from anybody else.

    haggist, also, i did at-level with the glacial walker. there i had time to DD and amp myself between the pet heals. just make sure to snipe away his add-ons first and you'll have no trouble.

    spider king i don't recall doing on this veno at all for some reason. i've done that oracle on a couple of my alts, but Lenie must not have got the oracle somehow --- either that, or it was so trivial i've forgotten entirely.

    on a related note, krixxix i've only recently been able to solo with my glacial walker --- if i watch that health bar real carefully, use tough whenever it's cooled down, and don't try to DD much myself. i recommend venos be above level 50 to solo him, at least if you don't have a herc. and come to think of it, i should get up to shattered jade and see if i can solo ch'in yet or not --- probably not, what with the aoe, but it'd be fun finding out.
