What do you consider to be the BEST solo class in the game?

LukosCreyden

Lets say that for some random reason, you are tasked with running a Veteran Hard Mode DLC dungeon but woops! You are all alone! Which class and spec would you take with you? Which one would you say has the greatest chance of clearing this content solo? (Theoretical, not sure soloing ANY vet HM DLC dungeon is possible).

Magicka Templar

magicka templar has it all - Dots, jabs Aoe, heals

what more could you ask for?

Metafae

Magicka Nightblade

I chose this because;
Great mobility, resource management, cheap ultimate and easy major expedition.
At the end of the day, you get lazy, Concealed Weapon + Rapid Retreat + Shadow Cloak and stealth your way through delves and not engage in any combat at all.

I mean, i would take main, so sorc, but magblade is probably a great option too

Maximum fun

I currently have two favourites:

Magicka Sorcerer (with Twilight Matriarch, double Lightning staff) and Stamina Sorcerer (no pets, double two-hander).

With the latter I was able to finally solo my first normal dungeon without a sweat. I find both very enjoyable and fun to play.

Xerikten

it is not the class. it is what is sitting in the chair.

Hurbster

Whichever class I play, I usually play by just slamming my head into the keyboard.

Stamina Templar

i chose magplar from your list but i think i have a nightblade healer that totes rocks on vet dungeons

ryzen_gamer_gal

Stamina Templar

I chose magplar. why does it say stamplar?

Ri_Khan

Magicka Templar

...haven't played a necro or petsorc so biased vote but I can't really see them being better for solo than magplars.

Starlock

None. I couldn't do it on any of them. Nor would I even try. What a waste of my time.

Magicka/Pet Sorcerer

Pet sorc, no doubt. Shield + burst heal and a pet.

The pet is really usefull in maelstrom. He deal constant dmg while your avoidinf mecanics.

Starlight_Knight

Magicka/Pet Sorcerer

Pet sorc by a million times over. - at level 30 with white gear i found on the floor i was soloing world bosses pretty easily...
You try that on a stamblade.. without vigor. hek even with vigor..

LordTareq

Magicka/Pet Sorcerer

Magicka sorcerer for sure.

CMDR_Un1k0rn

Stamina Nightblade

Can't really vote anything else as Stamblade is my only character.

But man when you get Resolving Vigor what other heal do you need?!

Pet sorc is very good for soloing dungeons. And I've done a few on my magcro and it's pretty good also.

Magic sorcerer !!!!!

“Solo class” is a generally a PVP measure. If you want to know “best pve solo class” simply look up best scores in vMA as that is the only pve solo content.

MartiniDaniels

Magicka Nightblade

VMA on magblade with FG/MS/iceheart is walk in park.

Dojohoda

Magicka/Pet Sorcerer

Alone and inside of a Veteran Hard Mode DLC dungeon?

My best guess is a Magicka Sorcerer armed with full-zoo army has the best chance of completing the dungeon.

Siohwenoeht

Stamina Sorcerer

Imperial stamsorc. High health pool, good heals from dw+surge, throw crushing weapon in for no cast shield with psijic passive and boom! Solo artist. And don't tell anyone, but you can throw a pet on there in certain situations

Animal_Mother

Magicka Templar

Magplar.

Petsorc is probably easier, but I couldn’t stand the pets getting in my way while looting, thieving, or anything else requiring me clicking on it.

ssewallb14_ESO

Magicka/Pet Sorcerer

Pet sorc has the strongest mechanic bypassing ability from a pet that can taunt, and streak.

Magicka/Pet Sorcerer

Magicka/Pet Sorc

Last year I initially followed a Magicka Sorcerer PVE Solo build by @HackTheMinotaur, because I was new to ESO, but I then customized it to my liking.

Since then I have tried other classes, but I keep going back to my Magicka Pet Sorc, because it is so much fun to play her, even tougher content I am able to tackle with her.

Magicka Templar

Depends on your skill I mean ping and a bit of skill really.

I choose Magika Templar as a middle ground but I would say:

- Ping under 120 and good skill (situational awareness, respect of mechanics): Number 1 is anything Nightblade.
- Ping between 130 and 190 and decent skill: Magika Templar
- Crap ping, which usually also result in less than decent skill: Magika Pet Sorc.

Hyzock

Magicka/Pet Sorcerer

IMO mag sorc 1st, stam dk 2nd. Idk why so many ppl vote magplar, it's really good in group but not in solo pvp. Obvious top 3 is probably mag sorc, stam dk and stamblade for solo.

The problem with pet sorc is that they can’t hold aggro in dungeons. That trick only works in overland content like world bosses.

Without pets, sorcs can still have decent self-healing with surge, but they lack sustain.

Templar has the advantage of being very tough, nearly as much as DK. They also have good passive healing with Puncturing Sweeps, but unfortunately this requires melee range, and more distance can make soloing easier.

Magblade has just the right mix of passive healing, full range, high damage burst and good sustain. They also have the option of skipping some groups of enemies with invisibility. The main weakness of magblade is that they don’t really bring anything unique to a group, so their primary niche is solo content.

Magsorc or even stam sorc because of surge. Magsorc mainly because they have the best shield and imo the best heal in game.

MojaveHeld

Magicka/Pet Sorcerer

Petsorc. I don't even play mine much, but it's the only class that has everything for soloing. A burst heal, a shield, hard cc's, a heal that procs while dealing damage, strong dots, and an execute. No other class, mag or stam, has all of that from its class abilities.
