I can solo any one marked with 1 on normal. Did that on all classes but templars.

I haven't finished most of the dungeons but goodluck with Engine Guardian from Darkshade Caverns II, If you aren't magicka templar.

Out of all the normal dungeons i've attempted, the most difficult one that i beat had to be either selenes web or elden hollow II on a stam sorc

Direfrost Keep... cause the pressure player need 2 people

Technically, I've only soloed Banished Cells.

Also, I've finished the final boss successfully on some others when my duo partner died early in the fight, so I'm pretty sure I could solo those too.

My guess -- assuming (which I haven't tested for a while) that the Clannfear taunt still works reasonably well when you're solo -- is that I could solo most of the first 16. Not Blackheart Haven or Selene, I imagine, since I find those pretty hard even duo. Not Direfrost Keep because of the forced-group mechanic. Probably most of the others.

Any non-DLC dungeons for sure! I might be able to pull off some of the DLC dungeons if i try. I can do most of the "I" dungeons on veteran too. Some of them on hard mode.

I do it on a Argonian Magicka Nightblade. CP 690+

Selene's is fun solo. You really get a feel for the mechanics which eases group play immensely.

I have done Darkshade 1 solo so many times that I figured out mechanics that make the dungeon even easier.

I have also soloed the Engine Guardian in Darkshade II on my Magsorc. (It wasn't a true solo for the dungeon because my group wiped on the first poison phase and it was easier to just solo it the rest of the way than attempt a revive. I also soloed Valkyn Skoria on Vet due to the same issues.)

But I haven't really attempted to solo too many dungeons. Only ones that I need/needed gear from, like Blackheart Haven (until the last boss), Tempest Island, Darkshade, Wayrest 1, and Crypt of Hearts. I will usually jump into one of these if I need gear as I am farming while I wait for the dungeon finder to queue me to a group.

Edited to add that I do not run a pet build.

@TBois

Actually, you can solo that one due to a glitch with one of the door switches.
I've done it, it works ...

PS: And apparently someone made a howto video:

This fight is actually pretty easy on normal with any kind of self heals or shields. I've found it easiest to complete on a stamsorc. Surge is all you need (not even deadly cloak), then you just follow the boss and damage it. Isn't too different from vMA 4th stage, except that adds don't hit that hard but the boss actually attacks you.

TBH. The large trash just before needed a little bit more effort and few dodgerolls, while the guardian itself was more like a walking dummy.

It can be just as easy on vet, but your healer has to follow and keep healing springs up, while melees follow the guardian. Usually you can ignore the adds. It gets much harder for melees if a healer insists on staying behind, getting out of harms way, avoiding red, etc. I've been able to heal that way very low cp players with quite low DPS and still we had maybe two or three deaths (ignoring adds, so these were piling up!) due to not enough mitigation (that's one reason high cp players die less, the other being experience).

I have soloed Al the I non dlc dungeons except dire frost , selenes. Black heart and vaults. My favorite dungeon to solo is dark shade and my least favorite is elden hollow and spindle clutch because of annoying boss mechanics.
