No, just no. This is so horribly wrong and goes against player's freedom.
I vote for making "you shouldn't be able to" a bannable phrase.

Is it doable? or am I crazy?

I don't think you can beat round 8 as if you do the mechanic alone the boss/round resets. Round difficulty wise you could easily beat it, the question is if you can do this mechanic solo.

Duo-ed it on normal more than I'd like to and didn't notice any mechanics that would prevent me from soloing. I can imagine round 9 skeleton holes be a problem, but 8th?

There is massive incredible amount of freedom without even including any group based content. Group based content should remain group based. Period. Mayhaps let us then make every Trial solo-able? Hm You are taking it too far. I have a right to say my opinion, yes we should not be able to solo group-based dungeons It defies all logic,sorry. Ironically you speak about freedom ,yet you state "you shouldn't be able to" a bannable phrase" Basically stripping off my freedom to voice an opinion. You should know that not every player will agree on something does not mean it has to be " a bannable phrase"

Group based content. "Based" does not mean "only".

I was shocked I personally soloed on my newbie Sorcerer 7 Vanilla dungeons from level 28-40 ,Maelstorm arena as level 38 and almost Hollows but one boss gives me trouble for now. I have 226 Champion Points.

There should be certain mechanics preventing players,also rewards obtainable to get 4 pieces of excellent set in one clear.

There is no logic when a solo player beats group based dungeon in primarily Multiplayer game,but of course times have changed.

That is what happens when you nerf MMO over years. I would say yes you can for sure to Original Poster.

While I do enjoy carving though endless foes and feeling satisfaction of completing some dungeon tis ultimately very tedious and draining. Not that I enjoy so much anymore.

ESO difficulty should have been as it was pre Tamriel unlimited with Craglorn style zones one you are at level maximum.Craglorn was the only true end game region ,everything post was scaled and you had players soloing anything almost except certain world bosses.

There is no meaning of group or solo no more with exception of Trial.

No one ventured into Craglorn other than for Trials and to farm nirn. Zero point making content no one will use. ZoS seen Craglorn was barren and rectified it. Whether you or I agree with it is irrelevant. It was a wasted space and served no one. Probably disheartening to those who poured months of their life into creating it and seen no one use it. Craglorn needed fixed. also didn't help the Crag sets are trash and the WB's are cut and paste jobs.

Sorry got my rounds mixed up. The one with undead where you need to fall down the holes. I don't think you can beat that mechanic solo.

Looks like it's a vet mechanic, because I don't remember ever falling down in a hole on normal

Yeah it's easy to solo now, esp with pale order. I do it on a HA DK build. Trick to final stage is tab target boss and just nuke it

You can complete ndsa in solo easily, just heavy attacks and self healing.

MrDenimChicken · February 2021

just beat it guys, thanks everyone

the last boss was really hard tho lol....all the adds were just constantly spamming negate and cc-locking me. Got pretty lucky but I did it. Seems like it would be easier on a stam class actually for the last boss....or maybe I should run immovable pots.

Also, dragonstar arena provides access to items that are literally the best in the game for pvp. Masters bow is like a requirement for stam blades. the masters destro staff is incredible. It's kinda lame that items so good for PVP are in group pve activities, but I get it, it's an MMO.

It's doable. I have done it multiple times with pack leader on my stamplar but as everyone knows, werewolf is absolutely busted op right now. I run engine guardian, venomous smite and briarheart. If you're on xbox I'd be more than glad to help you out. My Xbox live is the same as my forum name.
