It has been my experience, however, that none of the classes can solo effectively even the blaster, which makes the statement in the book false advertising.

I have not found this the case. In fact a decent scrapper build earns xp faster soloing that with a group. A decent blaster build (basically 1 that doens't pretend to be a scrapper-tanker) can solo extremely effectively. Heck unless there were 2 bosses in the same room, my Empathy defender could solo and did quite a bit. I have seen Tankers solo missions 5 levels higher then they are. The only AT that I feel has difficulty soloing is a controller until the mid 30s. In the old days my Ill-Rad soloed AVs not quickly but he could.
