    i tried to solo with my 45 assassination rogue and it didn't go too well.  I was able to get down both of his adds and then vanish.  Unfortunately, taking him down was more of a pain.  He has a flame shock attack that does ~300 instant damage and then some damage over time.  And then he hit me for 200 normal and 400 crits.  I was getting a fair amount of crits on him and I had to burn evasion, but the 400 damage crits were just too much.  I might have been able to kill him if I had blind powder with me to give me time to bandage and a healing potion.

    For any other 45 rogues out there, I suggest either having blind powder and a healing potion on hand or get a party.  You might be able to solo him without any of these if you're lucky, but if you have crappy luck like me you'll find yourself dead and frustrated.

      Actually, I'm a 38 combat rogue and I solo'ed it.
      Stealthed/distracted all the mobs in the keep as I approached the doorway of the room. 
      From there I would sap one 39, bring down the other, using blade flurry and evasion, then vanish.
      After vanish/blade flurry/evasion cooled down, I would begin attacking the other one.
      The neat thing with blade flurry is since it strikes nearyby opponents, by the time I finished getting the second 39 down (keep in mind the 1st one hasn't respawned yet), I would have the prince down to 45-55% hp left.  From there I just kidney shot him when he was low on health to keep him from pulling outside creeps.
      Also, I used Wound Poison and Deadly Poison.  You could probably use crippling poison instead of Wound and that would help with him running. 
      You gotta start attacking the 2nd 39 as soon as your vanish is near its cool down to play it safe, but don't wait too long or that 1st guy re-spawns. 
      But yeah, did this, no health pots too :P
