*I also posted this in the "multiclass" forum. Im not sure where it fits better tbh.

I am beginning my 6th life on my main toon. I solo everything, and only group when a friend needs help or I have to for windowing etc. So with that in mind, I would like to get off of the TR train and settle on a build. My goal is to be able to solo EE content even if only occasionally for fun. I would like to be able to solo herioic Elite raids as well. I havent played any of these options to any reasonable extent in EE content so Im going to rely on the consensus of the forum to determine my final life.

As a side note: think enhancements and feat requirements in terms of the enhancement pass. Im building this to reach max potential about the time it goes live.

All builds are PL: Pal, PL: Wiz: PL: Clr, PL: Bard, PL: FvS. Here are the contenders:
