How are people soloing trials?

aleister · July 2014

Is there a strategy or trick that makes this possible?

Who soloed a trial ? I thought a group had to be 'x' many people to trigger an area..

No, you can walk in by yourself. There are a few videos like this one that came out shortly after Craglorn was released. At the time, people chalked it up to exploiting broken skills, but people are still doing it. I'm wondering if the strategy has changed or what.

I was able to walk into a trial area solo just fine, but i never tried to proceeded further just by myself.

The only videos I have seen is of players soloing the trash in trials, not the bosses

I haven't done any trials yet, but if it's possible to solo them, aren't the trials broken then?

AA can't be soloed... no matter what OP skill you use... no matter how much skilled you are... there is a step you need 12 people to stand on 12 teleport stones at the same time to progress ^^' (no... pet, faliliar or shadow clones don't help with this... you need actual characters to stand on the stones for them to activate ^^)

I have seen videos of the first boss being solo'd, but nothing more than that. I guess it's possible that a group could run to the the 2nd and 3rd bosses and let someone try to solo them, but I haven't seen it.

Yea as shown in the video he just solo kill the first few groups of trash mobs in there before the first boss... And it's not like this is something new to MMO's either. I remember back in 2004 you could solo kill the first few trash mobs in (WoW), Onyxia's Lair as well if you where a Shaman.

Thanks for the clarification, guys. That makes sense. People in one of my guilds were bragging about having just solo'd them and I'm thinking "how the...."

First boss can be soloed by almost anyone.

try asking someone who has completed trials like this guy instead of spinning conjecture based on nothing. As he stated you need 12 to progress. also there are bosses with a timer that you have to dps down or wipe. so can one person do the dps of 8... what the *** do you think? NO, in case you didnt figure it out.
