Yes, the solo boss battles need to be nerfed.

I agree 100% that you should be able to run as a party with these quests.
I remember hearing negative feedback during beta about this and it was almost a deal breaker for me.
I quest with my wife and there's nothing we can't do together (figuratively speaking). She's a Sorcerer with healing spells and I'm a tank with some heals and a few dps spells. CC, heals, damage - boom, we win and have something to talk about over dinner.
I seriously hope ZOS re-thinks this. Star Wars had shared 'solo quests'. You could go in, help with heals/damage but it didn't "count" towards the Helper Person's quest (if they were on the same one). So she and I did them each twice - once for her and then once for me. It was a pain but I didn't mind. We did it together (kinda the point of an MMO, eh?)
Thanks for the quick and agreeable comments.

It's a good idea to level more than 2 weapons anyway. After all there are 300 skills points in the game to collect so why not?

Well lucky we have possibility for silver bolt. However it really should not be MUST to have ranged weapon in any encounter, I'm sure the final boss can be dealt with melee however much harder. I really do not want to start leveling some desto/resto staff or bow for my tank char just because of one boss fight.
Something is terribly wrong. I did it with completely broken armours because I refuse to spend any gold unless necessary. And of course, one shouldn't be VR1 and still have that problem.
Look into your build, swap in your dragon blood, razor armour and whatever damage skills you are fond of. You will be good to go. All the classes have self heal, armour and damage, with DK skills being the most easily accessed.
Note that solo bosses do not have as much immunity, and Mannimarco left you an undead should you need the extra health.
Indeed. Please, no more nerfs. I hope ESO adds a group option so anyone who wants a challenge can still solo content if they wish, and those who want to play with others can do so.
I'm a templar and i haven't got any problems with any of the story quests. And i hear dragonknights are even a bit stronger at some point than templars.
If you struggle with these kinds of quests you will cry and quit them game on veteran content.
Yeah and many times the mob's ranged attack hits THROUGH the pillar!most of the fights have some hills, pillars or other thingies that you can hug around and hide from the boss for a while for regeneration or heals

No need to lie but melee in solo veteran zone are just useless i really think zeni need to up melee to be able to take more damage.
