Pre-3e A/D&D PCs are robust at higher levels and work fine in solo campaigns; they have lots of hp relative to enemy attacks; they will usually make their saving throws.I did some solo stuff with high level 3e but it bore no resemblance to regular 3e gaming, it was mostly political with the PC King leading armies of conquest; when combat occurred it was mostly either handwaved or for flavour, eg storming the ramparts and 18th level Fighter-Warlord PC hacking down the CR 8 Grey Render etc.</blockquote>
