I'd like to get peoples' thoughts on this, if it's an exciting idea to put SCs back in the game...

The only ones that currently have a chance to solo without being turned into kibble are the Gorgon, the Ancient Kraken, and the Carrion Dragon-all of which are very tough, and all of which are able to heal afflictions.

I don't think this is true. Solo what exactly? Any giant humanoid pretender, preferably with awe and magic for buffs, like fire for Fire Shield, Astral for Luck, Body Ethereal and Astral Shield, etc. outfitted with items can solo armies of AI rabble. Against a human any SC can be taken out.

Do you want a pretender that can take indies solo early on? There are many that can do that already.

Do you want one that can solo AI armies? Take a pretender with magic effective for buffs and all item slots.
