I would like to know what public dungeons are soloable (if possible) with a Stam Sorc
My StamSorc is a lvl 31 Khajit (CP 181).

    Assuming you really mean public dungeons: all of them, they were designed that way. Group dungeons (Spindleclutch, etc) are different. Depending on the mechs most of them can be soloed on Normal, but that will take some experience and skill.

    With lvl 30 its hard, you lack skill synergy and equipment.

    I can't remember with certainty, but I think I've completely cleared every public dungeon alone on a sorc. Though, it's entirely possible I've solo cleared some on other classes, and wasn't alone on the sorc I'm thinking of. Either way, I know I've done full sweeps of every public in the game. Probably cleared every group event solo as well. Though, I'm less certain of that.

    The public dungeons that are not a private instance can be done solo. They are significantly easier than when the game launched. Mostly takes good AoE and not standing still while mowing down a group. Cleared a few tonight on a stam character, including the bosses that used to be considered a group challenge boss that grants a skill point. Never had an issue.

    Group dungeons on stam sorc? Normal ones?
    EP zones, all but FG2, Direfrost keep. Dungeons labeled as 2 are much more difficult than these labeled as 1.
    DC zones, all but Blackheart Haven.
    AD zones, all.

    DLC ones - none. If you are not @Vaoh, that is.

    All public dungeons can be soloed. They were designed to be completed that way. They might be tricky at level 30, but once you are a high enough level, you can kill the bosses in just a few hits while taking almost no damage from them.

    As for group dungeons? All of them can be soloed even on vet (unless they have a specific group mechanic that would prevent solo progress). You need to be a very high level of course.

    if you mean the public dungeons where you can meet other people, those not for 4 people group, but for unlimited number of people at once, those you can solo all, if you are able to kill multiple monsters and some small bosses (weaker than the world bosses), then you can do it. or if you have a group of at least 3 - 4 people, you can easy do them. but solo is easy too. it is good, you can farm good gear there, which is not bound on pickup, but bound on equip, tradable.


    if you mean the undaunted dungeons, even the hardest ones like white gold tower or imperial city prison was already soloed by some people, you got to be good to do it.

    Yes, public dungeons can be soloed at low levels, you need AoE and a crafted set is recommended.
    Group dungeons are harder than public ones even if you are in a group of 4.
    All except the ones who need multiple players because of mechanic has been soloed, however its in another level if difficultly again far harder than most veteran dungeons in group.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Doesn't the boss's beam stunlock in Direfrost? Or is that Vet only?

    Every public dungeon, any anchor, any normal dungeon (besides the ones where you have mechanics that require two players, like Bloodroot Forge), most veteran dungeons and most world bosses can be soloed. Of course that's a huge variety of difficulty, but the public dungeons are easiest.

    My StamSorc is a lvl 31 Khajit (CP 181).

    My suggestion is, you re-roll your build into magicka lightning sorc w/pet (craft and use 5 pcs. Seducer set + 3 pcs. Magnus) just for more aoe damage and survivability to damage shield - your extra stamina helps you roll dodging or blocking, but the magicka will be a key to soloing the public dungeons without a sweat.
    You can even craft a.m. magicka based sets in medium armor with single piece light, so while levelling your medium armor levels with you, and you could still use damage shield.

    It seems lightning staff magicka build solves the problems with slow levelling and soloing most pve content at low lvl characters - sorcerers, nightblades, dragonknights, templars, best for all the classes :).

    Bad advice. His Khajiit stam Sorc will do just fine.

    Care to explain in details why do you think it's bad advice, have you tested it yourself? I did it 3 times already I know it works well. Levelling magicka sorc is just faster than with stamina as well as survivability on low lvls is also higher with magicka especially in public dungeons such as Coldharbour.
    And recently I was levelling my DK orc dps/tank on stamina in public dungeons with 2H/DW and it was a disaster, when I changed to magicka w/lightning Staff, while having medium armor, levelling was smooth , safe and easy.

    As soon as you have crit surge you're golden. It's such a powerful tool. Stam sorc is super strong solo because of it. Dark deal for infinite resource too.

    Arrow barrage and Steel tornado will rinse everything in public dungeons.

    Know this for a fact as I made one on NA server not long ago. As soon as I had crit surge I was grinding mobs of 10+ with ease. With no CP.

    My Stamina Steel Tornado + Volley tiny toon just ate your Magicka Destro Staff spammer and *** him out like Boethiah did to Trinimac.

    OP, stay StamSorc. It's fun and that combo is beast for solo especially if you have CP to back it.


    Speaking of StamSorcs, there was a guy in Zone chat who saw a Sorc using a Bow. He was so surprised to see this, and you'd have thought he saw a unicorn Bigfoot hybrid with the way he went on and on about this 'rare' thing he just saw. A few of us told him StamSorcs are a thing, but he could not believe it. He claimed to have played for 3 years and never heard of a Sorc using anything but Destro Staff. Cool story, I know

    Not really. I have had no issues soloing publics from level 10 on as a fresh new character with no cp and gear crafted by some kind random.

    Just ignore word "public" along with "group" part of "group challenge" there, they're basically big solo delves. The only one where you'll need another player is the one in Bangkorai(Razak's Wheel iirc) and that's because you'll need someone to stand on another pad for you to activate the group challenge, not because you can't kill actual monsters solo.

    Edit: I can't remember which public it was...Bangkorai or Alik'r?>.< One with lots of Gargoyles and scorpions and stuff. Perhaps the one in Alik'r.

    All Public Dungeons are soloable, so long as you have sufficient skills available and you have enough experience.

    The above comes with a caveat. Unless the mechanics have changed recently, the "Lost City of the Na-Totambu" (Alik'r) needs one other person to activate a platform, in order to initiate the Group Event.

    Yeah, StamSorcs are a beast. I remember running a dungeon with guildies a couple weeks ago, where our healer lost their **** over how little damage my sorc tank was taking.

    Because people were trolling by jumping random plates ZoS decided to change it. I think from Homestead onward one person is able to activate all the mechanics. My Stamina NB has been there near his grand tour of Tamriel and it worked that way.
