✭✭✭✭✭i found all of the WBs in high isle to generally be easy and had no problem soloing them
there is not a huge amount of reason to farm the bosses because of item curation its very easy to fully collect all items in the zone now (i had 80% of the gear collected in the zone after finishing all the quests, got the rest through doing the WB dailies)plays PC/NA

i have my main house (grand topal hideaway) listed in the housing tours, it has multiple target dummies, scribing altar, and grandmaster stations (in progress being filled out), as well as almost every antiquity furnishing on display to preview them

✭I actually enjoy soloing these bosses. With that said I always see other people killing them. 🤷♂️0 -

Being able to solo them isn't the issue.
I can get them done every day.
It's just not fun doing it solo.
I'd much rather have other people there with me, it's just more fun.0 -

I call out and .. not a peep, prime time,.. or just after reset when you think they'd be busiest.
Unless you're talking
just keep shouting into the vacuum for half an hour
nah I'm not patient enough for that, I'll finish soloing it before then.
but I never had to do that for bosses in Deadlands, Clockwork City, Southern Elsweyr,, or even Murkmire, like.. just mentioning that a boss is up (not even offering to share the quest) is always guaranteed to get some responses or people just showing up in zones where there are only 2 WB's.. it just concentrates the people who need the daily quests instead of spreading them out.
But in zones with 6 WB's? Be prepared to just sit there for a good while while the boss is alive, shouting into the vacuum and not getting response.0 -

✭There's multiple factors at play here
1. There's 1 Vent active per Instance so of course players will converge on that site
2. High Isle has gone quiet pretty fast and didn't galvanize as much hype as people would've thought
3. Once everyone finished the bosses & got what they wanted people just went back to what they were doing prior to chapter release

✭I'll gladly trade 1 less WB and delve in Chapters if it means getting an extra one in Story DLCs. I like the idea!"According to the calculations of the sages of the Cult of the Ancestor Moth, the batam guar is the cutest creature in all Tamriel"0 -
Zulera301✭✭✭✭✭NA-PC, the Deadlands bosses are still hoppin' despite High Isle, partially because they just recently released the motifs that go with the dailies. I also think they might have leads? I'm not sure about that part since I didn't keep track.
as for rewards for farming a boss over and over, yeah there's nothing really too compelling for that anymore.Shortly after the formation of the Ebonheart Pact, a Nord woman was given a tour of the Tribunal Temple. When later asked about the experience, she seemed upset. Suffice to say, the Dunmer were not pleased to hear this, and thus they inquired further.
"Well," the Nord frowned, "the priests were very angry and unwelcoming. They kept shouting things at me like "you can't drink that mead in here!" and "somebody stop her, she's running naked!" and "we can't catch her; she's covered in grease!""1 -

Yeah the thing is.. for other chapters there was good activity for weeks if not a solid month in the zone.
But this one.. it was dead by day 20 -

The other 90% of us need help, and find the content BORING AND UNREWARDING.
How does High Isle help us achieve anything? It doesn't.

Yeah they hit the sweet spot with adjustable geysers. Not sure why they abandoned that concept.
yea that was awesome. if your dps was super low it would just spawn you a beefy yaghra instead of a full blown boss. i thought this scaling was pretty clever
The problem was we had a bunch of trolls show up whining for harder content. Funny, how these guys aren't at harrowstorms. Yet, ZOS has clearly catered to these whiners.2 -

✭To be clear I'm not asking for easier world bosses.
I'm just wanting there to be people at them so that the zone doesn't look totally dead all the time.0
