I just solod AC story mode on thief. The hardest part was the two champs Vassar and Relena together. I managed to split them up and kill Relena. I then killed Vassar with rocks and DPS between rock throws.

This was fun and you should try to solo a dungeon if you haven’t already. How hard would you rate AC story mode as a dungeon and what would you suggest trying next?

Would be nice if rewards were buffed solo, but I am doing this mainly for the fun. Try to solo a dungeon and have some fun. It took me about two hours, but was worth it.

Welcome to the solo club!

Good on you!

Its a fun thing to really start to look at the “deeper” mechanics. and play. At least for me. you start to notice alot of little things in all of the encounters you have. be it in a solo setting or group.

For me it has been a frustrating ( in a good way) experience to almost have to “re learn” everything you thought you knew. And for that matter the level of respect that at least I have developed for all of the players that came before me. and have constantly offered advice and council on how to be “just a little bit better”

:)

Good for you Rage. Try working Twilight Arbor story next. whole new set of challenges.

Soloing makes you see the whole depth of each encounter. I like it (and low manning).

You can try AC 1, AC 3, CM story, CM 1 CM 3, TA Story, TA Up, SE 1 (?), Arah Story, Arah 1, Arah 2, Arah 3 and Arah 4.

SE 1+3 can both be soloed, yeah. Arah 1 requires 4 people for Shoggi. Fractals can also be soloed, mostly.

Unfortunately you can’t solo content with friends, and there are no increased rewards for doing dungeons undermanned unless you risk all your dungeon rewards by trying to sell the path.

IMO, CM p2 is way easier to solo than CM p1 (just because of Bloody Victoria), im shooting cm p2 thief solo today

Also, dont forget hotw p1 (troll might be the hardest to beat atm)

TA Forward and SE 3 are doable as well.

Good luck on your next solo’s!

I personally found CoE 2 quite fun on my thief (minus the terminals though, needed friends for that).

You’d probably enjoy doing arah 2 or 3 as well (can solo the orb with shadow trap). Added bonus is when you finally get it done, you can sell the slots for monies. Only problem is Lupi is usually quite a hard solo the 1st time you do it.

Welcome to the club! Glad you’re having fun

Wupwup! I agree soloing is fun c: So far I’ve only managed to solo AC story as well, but as an elementalist, and to be honest I had the very same problem – Vassar and Ralena … not to mention my failure to realize that I’m not on my guardian and rushing yolo-style into the mobs isn’t healthy.

Tried TA story as well, but the very first spider champion totally wrecked me. Let us know how it goes for you!

Can the keg part be done solo?

Yes, it can be done, although its not really a fair way.

Put 1 keg in an unreachable spot for the foes (i use the spot behind the house, directly left of the keg placement rings). Then get ~10 kegs (just to be sure) and drop them right before the circles.
Plant shadow refuge or smokescreen+sb #2 and place the kegs in stealth on their spots, some enemies will pop but since youre in stealth they wont attack you.

Easymode R&V solo (can be done without death with good RNG on attacks)

And I think it’s extremely boring and not rewarding (contrary to GW1, ofc which was fun… AND rewarding).
