sammy is best with swords or daggers depending on what you have
should put 60-75 into vita if you play solo with EE armors
i like multistrike/powerstrike/twohitback when i solo it
invest a few hundred it will help alot!

I concur with this and add on slightly, if you don't have EE armors and don't want to die to gain prof points, then you may want to go max 100 vitality.

Also, the Swords gain more damage by adding the rest of your points into Strength, whereas Daggers damage increases with Dexterity, so, swords are cheaper, so you would go full Strength stat and strength main charm (&/or Armor).

I solo as well. 80 vita with a 55/100ee scale armor and 55/150ee dagger does the job for me until 73. Just barely though, have to rest more than I like 70-73. I am using a heal with /whistle 1 in between but without an additional Stat item to swap for heals your mana reserve and effect is not really good enough if you don't have top-tier heals.

If you don't own a 55/150+ee sword and/or 55/100+ee armor I would likely put up to a 100 in vit, including stat bonuses.

This is what I do, and is not really recommended by the rest.

Level 40 Longsword 1xx EE
Stat armor not EE ... at level 60 I swap from str scale to an int plate.
Stat main charm ... 47 str
13x level 45 Reg Heal on ACC slot

100 Vitality
30 Intelligence (yes, I do pump this to 30 base)
Rest Strength.

Abilities: TwoHitBack and Salvation ... that is all.

I find it easy this way... but if I was using a Sword, I would prefer 150+ ee level 50 or 55.

I don't use the /whistle lvl 1 for healing trick, I fully explore and hardly ever use Regen gear. The only time using Regen gear is when I encounter EP waves one after the other, this is rare.
