My AD sorceror is currently working her way through Coldharbour and there's a distinct lack of people around which means some world bosses and the public dungeon are pretty impossible to do.
Whilst we do have the influx of players from the Steam launch coming through, eventually I foresee a time where new players, or those levelling alts, will not be able to get this type of content done unless they go back at a much later level.
Should ZOS look at making this type of content soloable and, if so, when?

Except you will never get above Level 50 until have finished the MQ in Coldharbor and the MQ for the game. You will be stuck in Coldharbor foooooorrrrreeeevvvaaaaarrrrr. Try to that with a booming Molag Bal type of voice.
Hey, I need to do the public dungeon in Coldharbor, I have an AD NB with a Destruction Staff that is ready for that. Well, 3 more levels in Destruction to get Impulse and I will be ready, just a few minutes at the Zombie Farm really. I recently tossed his bow in the lava and am now using a Staff. If you can't find anybody by this evening, send me a message in game
Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

While it is true you cannot move on to the other factions' zones until you defeat Molag Bal, you can progress your character beyond level 50 before defeating him. Thanks to Cyrodiil, I was VR4 before I got around to killing him and moving on to my first set of VR zones.1 -
leeux✭✭✭✭✭I'm slowly getting there... My highest level char is 43 as of now, and in a few days I could be in Coldharbour, and having the same problem as you
At least, by next weekend maybe we could help each other if you still haven't found other players to do them. I'm in the NA server, BTW.
But I agree, even at late nights (3:00am - 6:00am) for me in normal level zones there's a distinctive lack of players around which make doing the dolmens and w. bosses at level very difficult.PC/NA - Proud old member of the Antique Ordinatus Populus

Super_Sonico✭✭✭✭Go back to Auridon or Greenshade and ask for help in zone chat. There's enough players running around for other purposes you should be able to get some help if there's not enough people in Coldharbour.
And wait til you get to VR zones. My main is in DC and I've completed AD and am now in EP zones. These areas are dead! Literally there will be maybe 1 or 2 people in zone chat who even respond. (There might be more in the area, but only a couple of people who communicate or are willing to help out.) I did beat a dolmen the other day in Stonefalls with just me (NB) and a templar healer. We didn't even die! And on that note, I think there is some scaling of the Dolmens. For instance, I noticed on that run, a few of the shackles you have to unlock (or whatever) only took like 2-3 kills to activate. I remember being surprised by this because I've been in large groups where I know it's taken 20+ kills to get them to activate.0 -

Do you get VR content/Exp in Coldharbor once you reach 50? If so, while he may be able to level above 50, he will be Coldharbor forever unless he wants to go to Cyrodill

Is it not?
I guess it depends a lot on build/class and playstyle. If you have such that you can solo this content on level all power to you, not everyone can though and, in some cases, people might have a build their perfectly happy with in every other respect but might not be suited to soloing things like this.
For me personally, some world bosses, mainly single target, I can destroy but where it's multiple targets at a world boss it's more the other way around hehe.0 -

GW2 tried to make do with player scaling , your lvl would be based on the region so you can always do the content to a point and so on.
If anything ESO went all the way in the other direction , since a player a few lvls above the area wont receive rewards at all for the content , there isnt any reason to backtrack lols.Edited by Nox_Aeterna on August 13, 2014 11:06PM"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."
