Solo? Mammonite.
It's extremely niche, but it is effective and can handle more mobs than bolts can.

I don't have any gear for it on v3 or ccro or I'd capture some footage.
You don't see it often because you're basically playing Blacksmith with less health, damage, and much, MUCH slower.
But it can do one thing a solo smith can't do, and that's cast safety wall on themselves.
(Pneuma as well but there's far less use cases for this)
