Night Widow is a stalker with psionic debuffs so it can solo well.
The crab is real fun once you get all your pets. With all your leaderships and debuffs plus the nice holds from your disruptors it can solo very well indeed. However constantly recalling your pets can get annoying. (My only SoA 50)

My Crab Nephila doesn't have pets, and i can still solo almost anything there is. Solo ITF was prob my biggest thing, together with the 4 man Keyes Reactor.|

Dual Leadership pools are always nice, esp on a team.
I have a build planned however for a Perma 6 pet build, to see what that does.

To answer the OP, if you're concerned with soloing go Crab. They're much more resilient and have the AoEs to deal with x8 content.

Jinrazuo - Crab Spider

My DPS is kinda low with 45% dam, but with pets DPS will be higher.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts anyone with anything else to add please don't be shy
I been wanting to make another Arachnos character for good while now I just been busy either farming or studying. The thing is I am a bit confused as to which way to go. I was going to go night widow I feel like it's a claws/sr scraper on roids and can solo well ( love sr ), but I keep hearing how a tanking crab can solo almost anything. being able to solo is my main concern and wanted to pick the brains of the forum and get their input not that i can't make both types of characters i would just like to hear some input
