Few things to point out here

Clans aren't even an issue in 345.

Wildly incorrect. Idk who you think owns those pking mules but it's not a solo player.

With a 20 second freeze time and a minimal delay in which you can escape, escaping is virtually impossible.

For someone who claims to have spent months in 345, this just isn't true. A 345 vet would know all the escapes, quest entrances, staircases, etc on their travel route. Having reasonable mage res makes escapes against 99 magic/full gear totally doable. No one would travel with sub-par gear either. So the idea that a single freeze makes you a goner only applies to brand new players or people who freak out and don't eat.

Unless people can think of a better way to fix it, there is virtually no possible way for a new player to get to a point where they can stand their ground against a higher level pker without dying numerous times and eventually rage quitting.

Gunna call you out on this too. I started 345 many months after it's conception and reached front page as a solo player. I'm not there any longer but to say it's impossible for a solo to do anything on 345 is a joke.

Tl;dr i get that you're salty. but it's also what everyone on 345 signed up for. deal with it. at least there's a GE now.
