Enchanter spec helpFollow

For a solo/molo and yes soloing all way to lvl 80, i like the challenge. What do i spec do i go with as my first spec? then thru aa's what would be my 2nd spec?

ive read plp says alteration since that the most spells we have and use, others say conjuratio and evocation,

so i really need to know the first spec and 2nd spec for a solo enchanter player, please help me know the best specs for sololing.

Chanters were one of the classes where this used to be a big argument because theorycrafting would lead one to lean towards a playstyle choice of spec.

Abjuration is runes and some buffs. Useful, arguably life-saving (runes) but not where I specced my chanter.

Evocation is nukes. Chanter nukes are weak... waste of a spec or secondary in my view, but I definately remember people advocating it as a secondary.

Divination... does any class spec in divination? Granted they put PBAoE mezzes under it (but they were just mega nerfed), ditto for stuns of that type...

I went conjuration back in the day because I was a crowd-control chanter in a family guild needing crowd control for Ldon's and low PoP and earlier content. Mezzes and memblurs live in conjuration. If I knew I was going to get to do CC then I'd probably still go this way.

Alteration was my secondary spec (when that AA opened up) because dots and tons of buffs are there. A buff-bot chanter probably specced here. I would actually spec a chanter here today to give it a try, because I would be soloing and charms live here so I would be curious to see how it played out (I'd go conjuration for the secondary).

Note that I gave up on chanter a few years back because I found that CC was so rarely needed in the parts of the game I was playing, and CC was the main reason I had rolled the class. Hopefully some current chanter players chime in on the thread.

I just rolled my 3rd chanter, because I love the class, and I'm thinking of trying alteration for the slows and dots. Charms are there too, for the solo/molo folks. Secondary might be in evoc.

Years ago my old chanter speced in conjuration for mezzes, and it seems likely at lower levels that might still work for chanters that group. At higher levels, buffs and nukes are more important for people who raid. Some folks switch as they level.
