Looking for fresh solo content?

Seconded, preferably arcs that can be played at 50 so we can actually use our newfound Incarnate abilities.
And um, while they're at it maybe they can get around to adding in the new i18 enemies that aren't Praetorian. Super Stunners, Chi Masters, Girlfriends from Hell, high-level DE....and, uh, I guess the War Works and IDF too.
Eva Destruction AR/Fire/Munitions Blaster
Darkfire Avenger DM/SD/Body Scrapper
Arc ID#161629 Freaks, Geeks, and Men in Black
Arc ID#431270 Until the End of the World
The real question is if it's warm and buttery
I'd appreciate a list if anyone has the energy to create one. I gave up on the AE a while back but I have a new 50 that would be interested in a non-farm AE solo creation that has an interesting story.
There's some very good stuff in the AE for all levels.

The Weekly AE Arc(s): Choose arc(s) (as in, it could be a few dozen really!) that pass the simplest "I quickly looked at it and it's not a farm" test, and have them give shard drops at normal rate (which is low enough as it is), plus an extra shard on arc completion.|

I think Dev's Choice should be given out more often than Bug Hunter. It's been over a year since they've given one out outside of contests, and it's an easy way to put new solo content that you can get shards on, but only if they're Dev Choice.

No guarantee they'll be great - or even good. It's still player-created AE stuff so the usual YMMV applies. And still vastly inferior, in terms of rewards, to running actual TFs (nevermind the WTF).
One can dream, right?
(So much potential wasted... If it was up to me, Paragon City, the Isles, and Praetoria would ALL be littered with contacts everywhere giving arcs that broke out of AE).

Not all the arcs are for level 50s though, but most will tell you right away.

Now, if they could just fix the search engine so you can find non-Dev Choice arcs that aren't farms, then we'd be set.
