Question A Warriors Greatest Challenge?

As Factions comes ever closer, what do you think has (or still is) been a Warriors greatest challenge in Prophecies?
Over the weeks ive become increasingly bored and hating the wait for Factions. So I went out and made myself a list of thing I think are the Warriors greatest challenges. Here is what I thought would keep me going

Remember this is want I think is a challenge. This isnt an official list

1.
Solo Droknars Forge run (W/Mo).
Alot of the pro's would consider this part of their daily business. But I dont do it so often and think that it deserves a mention.

2
Solo War Camp to Granite run.
This probably isnt anywhere near the "Greatest" challenge but it is a challenge. Again I think it deserves to be on the list.

3
Solo Under World (Temple of the Ages).
Following Racthoh's little guide this can be done. This I think is probably getting close to the best challenge a Warrior can face. And, its alot of fun.

4
Solo Fissure of Woe.
Frozen Forest and the Spiders are not really very challenging when you get the hang of it. Much like anything else. Still, it gets a spot on my list atleast

5
Solo Icy Dragon Sword farming W/Me.
Now this to me really has to be on the list. Doing this Solo for me was and really still is very challenging.

So, I guess thats probably my top 5. But whats all your "Greatest" challenges that you've come against as a Warrior.

I meant a challenge. Not impossibilty
Although Lambda did post that W/N build. Maybe it is possible

After about 5 - 6 runs and not getting anything worth the run there, I short of gave up onit. So I was still learning the specifics to it and never got any good at it

I did better than the "pros" I went with on my first IDS run (they all died)... sadly enough no drops.

I have yet to cap hundred blades to do the UW and FoW runs.

The droks run is fun

Haven't tried the Granite run as all my low lvl char's I enjoy plowing through everything from Rankor to Granite.

Here are my 2 bits...

The hardest things I've done with my W/Mo:

1. Solo Dunes of Despair mission. Very hard to keep aggro at the end to keep the separate groups away from the boss, but it is manageable with tons of practice.

2. Solo Dragon's Lair mission. Getting past the 1st dragon is probably one of the most tedious and challenging things I've done. Takes impeccible timing and patience.

3. Solo Grenth's Footprint. Still can't figure out how to do SF solo, but I'm getting closer.

4. Solo IDS run (and NOT as a W/Me). This used to be one of my favorite things to do, until the W/Me's came and invaded the heck outta it.

Still haven't tried to solo UW or FoW yet, but that's mainly my stubborness to refuse to use someone else's build (no offense Racthoh).

Like Jetdoc, I could just take Lambda's build and use it but where is the fun in that? I dislike SF/GF so I never the interest in doing anything besides 5 man groups with henchmen. Aidan, Lina, Mhenlo, Cynn ftw.

It was more challenging figuring it out. Aatxes are just a pattern, grasping are a joke, and smites is just a matter of not attacking through Shield of Judgement.

Always fun, doing it with less and less defense was the most fun I had with it.

If you have the favor, it was waaaay too easy. Probably why I only did it once (got two out of it ).

Chatting while doing 3 and 4.

Soloing the first FoW quest. America always seems to lose favor while I'm in there, so if/when I screw up, I'll have to wait until the next day to try it again (where I'll forget why I screwed up and make the same mistakes).

I'm convinced soloing Dragon's Lair is possible (including Glint), never got around to completing it though.
