Well, this is a upgraded version of Falling Demon's solo Shiro build. He makes use of vital blessing to up his and mhenlo's max health and hassle changing of gears so that both can survive the irritating meditation of the reaper.

However, some1 posted n said solo means no help from mhenlo, so i found out a nice trick to do it without mhenlo (its more difficult to do if he's alive) Ok, here goes.

Standard Boss Farming Spoil Victor 55 build:

Protective Spirit (PS)
Spirit Bond (SB)
Spoil Victor (SV)
Barbed Signet
Vampiric Gaze
Mending
Essence Bond
Balthazar's Spirit

Attribues:
Blood Magic: 12+3+1
Soul Reaping: (not needed for Shiro, but i just put remaining points there)
Healing Prayers: 8
Protection Prayers: 10

Weapon: Totem Axe & Grim Cesta(-50hp)
Armor: Up to u....
Runes: 5 Superior to make it 105hp

Ok, lets start. Cast the 3 maintained enchanments, Mending, Essence Bond, Balthazar's Spirit and proceed across the bridge. Remember NOT to take the celestial skill (cos its best to have aggro always on u so we can gain energy)

After cinematic, cast PS and run to Shiro. (IMPT: Make sure he stays on top of the stairs at Togo's body!!) Hex him with SV while keeping PS up...if he aggros mhenlo, let and hope mhenlo die (cheers^^). If mhenlo is around, the damage u take will be more than what mending will heal, so u may have to let mhenlo heal u or slap on SB on urself. But most of the time mhenlo will die which is good. Barb signet him every now n then to take him down faster at no enrg cost. And dnt worry, he wont banish u.

After taking dmg from SV, he will then use meditation of the reaper. At this point, u can wait for signet to recharge n barb him n vamp gaze (watch out for ur enrg) him. These 2 skills will not be absorped by meditation, so he will take dmg. Shiro shld be at the top of his platform doing his meditation, so u wat u need to do now is to RUN AWAY!! Run to either corner, cross the bridge n wait at the small pavilion.

When meditation ends, u will not take damage due to out of range. Once it finishes, run back in, reaggro him, n repeat n rinse. I like to open with barb signet, PS then SV then run up stairs. If mhenlo is dead, u do not even need to cas spirit bond cos he cant outdamage mending unless he does his impossible odds which brings us to the last part of the strategy....

When he gets low on hp, try not to cast SV so early on. Run to him, gaze or barb till he does his impossible odds. At this time, slap on spirit bond and immediately cast SV on him. What u will see is numbers flying, hp crunching images. SV at 100 a normal hit is doubled to 200 every hit from shiro. And he strikes fast like a madman. Soon he will meditate, so u just rinse n repeat.

Slow, but faster than finding a group at funny hours. Feel free to sub the signet n gaze with watever u feel like. I didnt time, so u guys can try....maybe 10 or 15 mins? Below will be 2 screens of where to stand, showing the b4 n after effects of meditation.
