I've soloed Alexandrite maps as a BRD, a DRG, a NIN, and a WAR, and it's doable on all of them.
That being said, soloing as a tank class is absolute easymode. You cannot possibly fail an Alexandrite map as a WAR unless you just don't know how to play. So much HP and defense, plus all the self-healing (Inner Beast makes you UNKILLABLE) turns encounters into a joke. I get close calls occasionally on my DPS classes even when I'm doing everything right, but never with WAR. It's a complete stomp every time, all the time.
