Patchnotes:
"Battle for the Writhing Wall
Battle for the Writhing Wall is a unique event that unites Tamriel on a mission to combat the Worm Cult and destroy the Writhing Wall in Solstice. This event progresses through three phases, with more activities becoming available as the event continues and the final battle approaches.

Please note, this will not be available when Update 47 launches. We will have more information regarding The Writhing Wall event timing in September."

If you read more than only the Title …

Not exactly sure why achievements would be needed if you're already doing those, achieves are a form of encouragement to do stuff essentially.

... to make it more pleasant and interesting for me and other solo players. What do you think we are, some kind of second-rate?

Zos clearly wanted dungeons to be a group experience to the point some aren't suitable to even start solo, they're still doing the same thing this exact patch with one of those, at the very least, essentially confirming their philosophy. They did commented that solo/rp mode will come eventually but that's not likely what you personally would want. What zos think of solo players that's on zos alone, but pretty sure they think there's a whole game for their taking outside of group content.

You could also look at their work adequately and see how their big feature this month was mount swimming. Last time they've tackled dungeon was porting into encounter, which took them couple of patches to implement and was also considered a feature. Reworking and rebalancing all dungeons to fit something people are already doing with not much issue (bringing a friend or two into some of them for the pressure plate) isn't gonna be on their cards in a long while if ever, especially considering we have quite a pipe line of promises like overland difficulty, actually working and enjoyable PvP etc. in a pretty stagnant game that takes years for the simplest rebalancing (hybridisation is still going after years) that some studios doing in a week or two between actual updates.

@ZOS_Kevin can we in some time see achievements for solo vDungeons run? I would like to see achievements for solo passage of dungeons. Running original dungeons with a group is incredibly boring. Yes, and dlc dungeons can already be completed solo. Will there ever be achievements for such a passage that would be a little more enjoyable?

I hope not.

Group dungeons are meant for groups. Going solo is not recommended or supported. That is why I like to solo dungeons. If there would be solo achievements, that would mean the dungeons are meant to be soloable. I much prefer to conquer something that is not meant to be conquered than reducing solo play to what is expected.

For me, the only thing I hope is that they don't add more hard stops where you must have more people in the group. Like standing on pressure plates to just to get in the dungeon or pulling levers simultaneously. If a dungeon is not meant to be solo'd, make the encounters harder, not just put up an impenetrable wall and say "nope, you're not getting in."

And about CC. In some dungeons, when playing solo in the veteran mode, CC gets down to the ridiculous and not only in the dls.

There are ways around many things. Immovability potions, Precognition, delayed interrupt with scribing... Thinking out of the box is what makes soloing fun.
