Coming back from a long break from the game. I’ve been working at dungeons some and doing what I can to catch up on what’s been learned while I was gone. But it’s a lot. I’ve really narrowed it down to two things I’m trying to figure out and not having much luck on my own.

1) I would love to eventually learn how to solo every explorable path. I would love if this were possible on my favorite class (ele) but any class will do.

2) I really want to start by learning Spider Queen. She used to kick my kitten so hard, and even still does often enough when playing with friends. I’ve watched a few videos of people do it, but just can’t seem to grasp exactly what they’re doing.

I would love just some good resources online, an offer to help teach, and especially perhaps a dungeon guild or two (I’m on TC if that makes a difference?) to help me diff into this!

Fortunately for you, ele is very good for soloing. Unfortunately for you, you will not be able to solo “every” explorable path because some paths are simply not doable due to mechanics, such as CoE lasers.

As for Spider Queen, for ele it really comes down to just bursting her as fast as possible. If you’re watching old videos, they are likely before when a bug came out that increased the area of all cone type attacks, such as her immobilizing web, so you can’t just stand to the side of that anymore.

Ele is good for soloing, warrior and guard are also very good for it (not tried soloing on any other classes so not sure about others, although I imagine thief is good as well.

As the other poster mentioned, not every path is soloable due to mechanical restrictions.

In terms of resources, the forums here are good ofc (especially the stuff by any of the guys/gals from the likes of DnT, SC, qT or rT) and you can always check the following:
