What happened to the World Bosses?

    The only (and I mean ONLY) World Boss I could never Solo was those three Necromancers in Auridon.

    For whatever reason, they always smacked me around like I was a child... so finally seeing other people around there and finally defeating them with an impromptu Group was supremely satisfying for me.

    That one was absolutely the hardest, but I really don't think it was the only one that was hard. The Neried in Reapers, the Mummy with all the healers in Shadowfen... There were others that were actual trouble.

    They're really that hard? Okay. I guess I'll try and find them now. Hopefully they won't be overrun like the boss in Stonefalls.

    Hmm... OK... I jumped in on a couple of WB's today (with others) - and no, not part way through, I waited for them to re-spawn - and it wasn't so bad, I just had to think a bit more when I was fighting it, lol... So, I possibly jumped the gun, might've just been the shock of suddenly getting my ass handed to me by a Boss I'd previously had little trouble with, lol.

    The drops for me were shite though, not one thing was relevant to my characters class. :(

    That's a whole different thing. Every set drop in a zone will be one of three sets so the chance is 33% that it will be something for your build... and then there's that trait issue.

    So yeah, there is still a lot of junk loot drops except now some of that will be set junk.

    Only powerful world boss I found is the duo at Telesubi ruins and some guy in Stonefalls that would oneshot you (maybe that one was bugged). I wouldn't say they are all broken though.

    Every one of the old alliance-locked leveling zones has one WB that is tougher than all the others.

    It was cool seeing alliance icons on all players. It's like being in Cyrodiil, except not. The population has now tripled in PVE so the Cadwell Silver and Gold areas are no longer ghost towns.

    I like the hard World Bosses, Delves and Dolmens...challenging. So far there's so many players now that it's ONE Tamriel, I haven't had an issue with the stronger bosses.

    I went to go and take one on today for some XP only to find it suddenly has super powers and trunk load more health, [snip], like they weren't already difficult?

    Thanks for ruining those ESO, much appreciated. Just hope the bosses in delves haven't been given the same bullcrap overhaul...

    they are world bosses...

    there is a hint in the name as to how difficult they should be to tackle....

    wasn't like that for a while.... but that was just silly.

    These are still incredibly easy to solo, just slot a heal or shield.

    It's all based on: Rotations, gear, champion points, and overall understanding of the mechanics at hand and your build. That's the trick. Do that, and you can solo any world boss. And with the greatest of ease. Seriously.
    Though I still can't solo that golden saint in Stonefalls, because he's always being attacked by tons of people and rushed to constantly. One day, I'll add him to my list of world bosses slapped around too. >:)
    You literally picked the easiest world boss after 1T to show off how good of a solo player you are?
