Please, no. Even now overland Is brain dead easy. Let us have at least something.
You can solo every old world boss with ease.
And no, even new guy can do it. I Always run without cp (because i usually play no-cp cyro, so i am used to it). Since blackwood i resurrected my NB, And i was able to solo wb with purple gear bought at traders. It isnt expensive. Few thousands.
Maybe problem Is your build. Let me guess. All to dps?

I agree with the OP... ALL World Bosses should have a sliding scale, like dolmens, that change based on how many players are fighting them. Older zones, and even newer ones, depending on what time you play, there aren't always other players around to help. I don't want to PARK at a WB and hope someone comes along, and I am not one to sit and broadcast for help... if it's open world, it SHOULD be soloable in a game that puts solo content at the top.
For players saying WB are already soloable... sure, if you have years of experience and the 'right gear' with the 'right setup'... but that's completely unrealistic for the majority of players who happen across a WB and want to fight them.

I agree. This idea we keep hearing that anyone, even a new player, can solo world bosses with ease and that all it takes is a decent build and purple gear is really too silly. Of course you can if you're a veteran dungeoneer with the best build and gear, and with a lot of experience of the competitive side of the game, especially if you have your CPs well advanced or even maxed out, but 99% of the players focusing on the overland content simply don't fit into that category, nor should they. Scaling world bosses in the same way as dolmens is a perfectly sensible idea, and if it extends to optional scaling up to veteran difficulty for those that want that then that's sensible too.

He is also asking for a Scaling nerf so if a player is solo the bosses are weaker.
That’s what scaling does.

That is not true. Several base game world bosses have multiple bosses, and it can be difficult for certain builds to solo those bosses because of that. Just because your OP build allows you to insta-melt every base game world boss with ease doesn't mean that every other player in the game can do that, too.

You make way too many assumptions.. who says that every new player has the same personal skills as you do, who says that they know what gear to get, who says that they know where to get it.. the list is endless.. don't make assumptions based on yourself.. look at it from the perspective of a totally new and unknowing person

Sorry, i forgot google Isn't thing these days. Its simple theorycrafting. you can use build editor or you can do it old fashion way. Take paper and pencil, google sets and build your character. If you can't do it on your own ask in your guilds.
Everyone has same options in this game. Gear Isn't hard to get if its not trial meta. Its not even expensive.
Why we are talking about gear btw? I think issue is somewhere else. Everyone follows dps meta. No heals on bars, no stamina utilization for block and dodge. They just put all to damage just to cheese damage as high as possible for your "parse"
I am complete button smashing noob but hey, if my parse is above 50k its good, right? Brain is not needed. Finger memory is enough

I agree with the core of your opinion.
My 5+ yrs old main is a magplar, started with cyr light + overwhelming (now different). This build was originally copied from one by alcast or HTM, I don't remember, but started working only when I put together my very own rotation, that is one fitting my age, hands, hardware, ping, etc etc. Then I soloed almost everything that could be soloed, and this thanks more to sustain than to any dps level.
What i like to stress, though, is that this is rather boring. I'd have a canal therapy better than go again thorough this ordeal with another toon. Most WB only ask for patience, a normal attention to what they do, and (again) a not too squishy build. Other, though, are really hard, usually for the timing of their executes.
That said, allow me to ask you: which rotation did you use on your NB? I'd like to try it on PTS. Thanks

Where do you get that the OP is asking for a buff?
"In older zones there are not always other players around, in fact seldom are who want to do world bosses. While most are soloable depending on your level, some.... just are a struggle (Im looking at you Bittergreen)."
Obviously the OP is suggesting there is a problem killing world bosses when there are no players in zone willing/able to help. The proposed solution (slider) would mean scaling down.
"Say if theres more than 2 players present then the difficulty caps at their current."
Not asking for a buff. In fact is saying more than two players would mean the world boss would be at current difficulty. The OP wants a nerf.
The problem with a nerf is world bosses for some are the break they get from overly easy content. World bosses get mentioned all the time when players ask that overland content be made more difficult.
After someone asks for harder overland the response will either be take off your gear or go fight a world boss if you want difficult. Making world bosses easier for solo players means they will no longer be an alternative for solo players that want a challenge. The world bosses were meant to be a group fight. I like that I can solo some of them but that isn't what they were meant to be.
If anything world bosses difficulty should be increased to get them back in line with being a group activity. If they were tougher to kill more people might be willing to join the fight. I know for me sometimes I will see someone ask for help with a world boss and I might think I can solo that and then I don't go help. Why? Because I can do it at any time. If that were not the case I would be more apt to join in on the fight.

But what if people don't theory craft.? Again, you assume they are like you, or at least somewhat like you.. some people, myself included, walk into a game, seeing it all for the first time.. I don't Google sets, I don't watch instruction videos for dungeons and trials.. now luckily for me, I do quite okay since I have been doing this for many many years.. but there are other people who struggle really really hard with this game.. people who ask for help to finish quest bosses.. so no, not everyone can easily solo a world boss, even though a lot of people like to be live that that is the case..
