How should I solo as a Runecarving-specced RM?
Runecarving-specced RMs are, in my opinion, the best solo class in the game. A fully RC-specced runemaster can consistently take down orange con targets (but this is not advised, because it is not efficient in terms of mana usage and downtime). The pattern for soloing a runecarving RM is always the same: Spec Bolt-Base Bolt-DD-DD if needed That will kill 90+% of all yellow con targets before they reach melee range. If they stop to cast, so much the better. If you get a resist, or a missed bolt, then stick a root in there after the first DD spell.
