Finally reached Tokyo in TSW classic. uh, AEGIS. yeah. nope.
Anyway the hardest mission for me in TSW classic is tier 4 of From Carthage to Cairo, have never been able been able to beat it. Around the sixth or seventh wave of enemies I always get overwhelmed.

You don't have to go chaos/shotgun, any weapon combo with decent AoE and single-target options with the passive combo of Bloodsport + Gross Anatomy will work.

Once you get your AEGIS skills to about 4 or so, enemy shields cease to become a problem if you're using the auto-switch mod.

By design, there's a pretty low cap on the number of players in any adventure zone map. So you'd only run into lots of players in the hub zones anyway. I wouldn't worry about it unless you really want to do high-end dungeon content.

I think the closest you could get with MMOs would be another story-rich game like LOTRO or SWTOR.

That's pretty much the only way it's worth playing.

Is there a recommended build/class for soloing

https://forums.funcom.com/t/how-to-build-all-weapons/881

That link is pretty much the definitive guide on how to pair any two weapon types. He recommends not pairing two "healer" weapons (fists, rifle, and blood) together. Three of the starter classes do exactly that.

Personally, I think either of the starter classes with pistol (chaos/pistol or pistol/shotgun) work especially well.

I import the Filth and/or Sleepers into my Dungeon World games all the time.

so something might be happening?

Probably just the Envoys of Avalon spring event? I can't find an announcement about it for 2021, so maybe they didn't run it last year, but here's 2020's: https://www.secretworldlegends.com/2020/03/17/spring-equinox-2020/

is this still a game you can play

i remember buying this and thinking it was sick when it came out but i didnt have time for an mmo

i mean i still dont but would try it to do that jeffery combs level again

Yup, it's still around. The non-hub zones have a pretty low maximum player population by design, so it's not even different to play.

that spike is before south africa so i have no idea what it could be

IIRC, there was an annual raid event where flappy bird turned up in the main hub zone that finally got ported from TSW to SWL at that time and there was some sort of extra hubbub around it, like a login or completion reward
