Solo build request

[Abrax]

Hello guys. I don’t know if it’s viable, but I want to try a solo run using ranged weapons, if possible bows. My first idea is a Chanter, or do you think another class could do better?

There have been a lot of posts about this, so I would try 'searching' for POTD solo builds, and see what turns up first. 

Chanter/Paladin MC is a popular choice . They can heal, summon, and whittle down mobs with Essence Interrupter (very good bow!)

I think Chanter is a solid pick. But the first seconds of combat are a bit tricky because you will only be able to call summons once the combat starts. That means the enemies will rush to you before the summons are out. An animal companion might help to keep them busy until summons are there. So maybe Chanter/Ranger? Not Ghost Heart because you cannot have chanter summons and ghost animal companion at the same time. But Arcane Archer/Troubadour with Essence Interrupter sounds like a ranged build that might be able to solo quite well and be very versatile.

Played a couple hours with the chanter, and I am not a chanter fan… what do you think about a Goldpact/Ghost Heart?
