Soloable trials?

Are any trials soloable? I never did trials before so I don't have any achievements or skins from the old trials. As people don't run those anymore it would be nice if they were made soloable for people that joined the game later on?

    No.

    And if there is no room upon the hill

    I guess you can kill certain bosses yourself, but it just takes forever and doing the entire thing is often impossible due to mechanics.

    People still run all the trials, even pug vets in crag. Although I would just suggest joining a pve guild and run it with them.

    You can solo some bosses (Extrawelt have some solo vids) but you can't solo basic trials, there are some mechanics that prevents you from progressing alone.
    In AA you can kill first boss, but then you need 12ppl for pressure plates. In HRC you need to split your group after a while and in SO ozara has a disable mechanic and you need a party member to save you.

    So just go and join pve guild, these trials are easy (even vets) and group leaders usually explain everything before each encounter.

    I think mechanics-wise there's nothing to prevent you in Asylum Sanctorium (in +0) at least).

    The thing is I have a little baby boy who only takes 30 min naps so group content is pretty hard for me to do as I don't like making people wait for my if he needs a bottle or so.

    Well, you CAN solo a few of them up to at least the first boss. It has been done. I've soloed A.A. up to the first boss and killed it. I've also soloed a few more up to the first boss encounter (normal mode).

    Check out youtube. There are quite a few vids out there with people soloing Trials but of course not past points where the mechanics need more than one player (or 12 such as in A.A. portal platforms).

    Here is an old one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97ee1tJ0rF8

    and here is another more recent one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwYV5CKXPpk

    I don't think Don 1 plays any more but man his feats are Legendary.

    How many people are needed for that? The minimum, I mean?

    Not sure if this is the answer you would like, but Maelstrom is categorized as a trial and is only soloable.
