Don't like PvP? Don't want to wait in a queue for WGT to get event tickets?

You have a sorc? Don't mind using pets for the first boss?
Easy....

Gear set up and skills are entirely up to you and your preference.
I'm using Mistress of Apocrypha's one bar set up in this video. Build found here...https://youtu.be/TltS1PUapZM
After the first boss, you can change back to a normal no pet set up if you prefer. The important thing to know is pets are required for the first boss, or it despawns. Have not tried warden with a bear...it's possible in theory, but can't say either way.

Made this when everyone on PS4 was hot for Essence Thief but didn't want to queue for dungeons and said going solo in WGT was impossible.

Enjoy your tickets with no queue....😁

    So why are pets needed on the first boss? How is it she despawns? Because you need someone outside the cage?

    At best you have one chance to force the lock before she resets if no one is outside a cage. That's if you aren't interrupted by the fire or something else. If you flunk the force lock check, before you can try it again, she'll have reset.

    Heavy atacks rotation? Wake up, it is 2019 already.

    And btw, farming 4 people much faster, more fun and increases chances of necessary drop.

    If you have the Locksmith leveled (or get really lucky with breaking the lock instantly on low chance) you don't need a pet for the first boss because you get out of the cage before she despawns. It is a real low time window though, though breaking it manually or failing the first attempt most likely ends in her despawning.

    I've done it that way. :)

    BTW, exactly not the point of this post.

    Its addressing both the complaints about being "forced" to PvP and having to wait in a 30 minute+ queue. As I said in the op, gear, skills, and anything else completely up to you. That includes the rotation.
    Of course farming with a premade group is faster. Didnt think that needed to be said, but my mistake for having confidence in the intelligence of the forum. That you felt the need to spell that out...🤣

    Wake up.

    I have legermain maxed on all classes and this doesn't work for me.
    Even in this video, you can see when I'm in the cage, the pop up for the unlock is in a weird place. It's more in a corner and not the actual door. Even having it maxed, I failed the second pick attempt.
    It could work, but having pets is a lot less frustrating.

    I've tried it again on my MagPlar and StamDK on PC (if that makes a difference? Not sure), so I don't have accidentally floating something around that prevented the boss from despawning and to be sure I wasn't just lucky. It's tricky and easy to screw up, I don't deny that, but it's possible.

    And yes, it's much less frustrating with pets out, no denying because you're not luck dependend at all for the random chance to instant lock break fail. :D Just wanted to point out that there is another way for those not having an army of characters with different classes ready and don't want to rely on group finder or adventuring into IC. :)

    It does work with the warden bear, and with stam sorc with clannfear. Gear of your choice (though NMG and Leeching or Meduim Bahraha's, Kra'gh, Stormfist, or Veli work great. I also farmed Essence Thief this way (on PC NA. :)

    No, I agree fully. I originally tried on stam blade before going to pet sorc.
    Good looking out!

    I'll admit it was a long time ago, but you used to be able to critical charge, focused charge, bolt escape (and their morphs) out of the cage. Did they fix this?
