They have self-healing, a companion or lots of sturdiness. Not everyone wants to group up every evening. Quests, delves, world quests, professions and exploration are great on your own in WoW, and some classes are much better at it than others. ## What makes a good solo class - **Self-healing**: there is no healer, so you have to look after yourself. - **A companion**: pets hold enemies and give you room to breathe. - **Sturdiness**: heavy armor and defensive abilities forgive big pulls. - **Escape and control tools**: when things get out of hand, you need a way out. ## The best classes for solo players - [![Hunter: Night elf woman with long blue hair and face markings in green armor](https://findyourmain.com/images/classes/hunter.webp)**Hunter**](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/hunter) - [![Death Knight: Hooded death knight with a glowing blue eye and dark plate armor](https://findyourmain.com/images/classes/deathknight.webp)**Death Knight**](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/death-knight) - [![Paladin: Draenei with glowing eyes, a large shield and golden armor](https://findyourmain.com/images/classes/paladin.webp)**Paladin**](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/paladin) - [![Warlock: Hooded figure with glowing red eyes, chains and spikes](https://findyourmain.com/images/classes/warlock.webp)**Warlock**](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/warlock) - [![Demon Hunter: Demon hunter with horns, a glowing blindfold and green fel fire](https://findyourmain.com/images/classes/demonhunter.webp)**Demon Hunter**](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/demon-hunter) - [![Druid: Druid with tusks and feathers in green and gold armor](https://findyourmain.com/images/classes/druid.webp)**Druid**](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/druid) ### Hunter The [Hunter](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/hunter) is the solo classic. Your pet tanks for you, you deal damage from range, and [**Feign Death**](https://www.wowhead.com/spell=5384) gets you out of almost anything. Beast Mastery is especially relaxed. ### Death Knight As **Blood**, the [Death Knight](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/death-knight) is nearly unkillable: [**Death Strike**](https://www.wowhead.com/spell=49998) heals more the more damage you have taken. That lets you take on big packs and tough elites alone. Unholy adds undead minions on top. ### Paladin The [Paladin](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/paladin) has self-healing, plate armor and several panic buttons. As Retribution you clear the world quickly, and as Protection you are almost indestructible. ### Warlock For a cloth class, the [Warlock](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/warlock) is surprisingly good solo. A Voidwalker holds enemies, [**Drain Life**](https://www.wowhead.com/spell=234153) heals you, and Healthstones are always on hand. Affliction and Demonology feel especially safe on your own. ### Demon Hunter The [Demon Hunter](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/demon-hunter) shines with mobility and self-healing. As **Vengeance** it is tough, as Havoc it is fast. Thanks to double jump and glide, exploring is a joy. ### Druid The [Druid](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes/druid) can heal itself in a pinch, tank as a bear and has travel forms for every environment. It is the pick for anyone who wants to stay flexible solo. ## Also playable solo, but more demanding Rogue, Mage and Priest handle solo play fine but need more attention, since they lack self-healing or wear light armor. With some experience they are still a good choice. ## Solo rating by class You will find our solo rating for every class on the [class overview](https://findyourmain.com/en/classes) and the individual class pages.
