    It's impressive for sure, and I always appreciate more pet builds out there (as long as Zenimax doesn't take it as "Summons don't need any buffs, look at this!").


    But I do have to ask, why was your Clanferr dying so much? It didn't seem like you were shielding them very often so were constantly resummoning them: is that just a tradeoff for your build's damage, sacrificing and resummoning? Or am I just grossly underestimating the damage Mantikora puts out?

    It probably could've been done without the pet TBH, just would've taken a lot longer.

    I might have to try a pet build. I've been soloing several of the group dungeons on both modes and am curious to see if it is easier with my Magicka sorc if they have pets. I imagine the Necro set will help a lot. It's the lack of ability slots that will be difficult.

    This fight is dedicated to all the casual and solo players in ESO.

    Soon I will release the build that will let you solo trial bosses and vet dungeons like you're the only thing that matters. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the fight!

    Really nice :)

    and thanks for sharing

We should have fought for our village and not have backed down, with our tail between our legs. Now my home village is in shambles, the houses burning, the invaders feasting.I swear every day to Shor that after Molag Bal has been defeated, I will hunt down the invaders and restore peace in Bleakrock and drink my mead with my friends at the market place".PC-EU

    Came here with same assumption, left disappointed...

    Seriously how could you even die in normal with a regen build sorc?

    @Grabmoore

    um there's lots of mechanics in that fight that will absolutely RIP you in no time. Its one of the toughest bosses I've ever solo'd, and I've been an avid soloist since Craglorn was released. (Check out all the old vids on my channel if you get a chance)

    thx for the grats, appreciated

    Ah, the S.S.'s (Solo Sorcerers) are here (@Vaoh @Thelon). Always wanted for all 3 of us to be in the same thread. Now only if we could all be in a group together. Lol. Anyway! Excellent work Thelon. Absolutely fantastic work. That is most impressive. It's because of your work that I got involved with "pet builds" to begin with a long time ago. As well as got interested in solo'ing content. Fantastic job, bruh.
    @Ch4mpTW

    thx bud, glad u enjoyed the vid. I know we're all on different servers but I really enjoy watching you and Vaoh in action.

    I don't get all the hate. Sure, you didn't solo a 12 man trial with a pet build (and BTW, if you find a way to do it, please let us see that), but it's still more than the vast majority of players will ever do.

    Not sure I have the will to fight anything for 16 minutes though. No way I could fight that long without screwing something up.

    How about almost an hour?

    Awesome

    What set procs the fireballs? (I assume that's a proc effect)

    ZOS please don't nerf my sorcerer because of this. I will upload a vid of me dying easily to a lesser boss to show this is impossible for someone like me :p

    If you are an avid soloist then why on earth do you use a pet sorc??? If you want people to acknowledge your work, you gotta show more than ten clicks per minute whilst your pets do the dirty work.

    This.

    You've just handed them more ammunition, OP. The achievement kinda dies when you consider how many people will howl for nerfs now.
