Dungeon solo builds
OK so I know it sounds crazy, but I want to know a few things.
1.) How many of my fellow necros have solo’d a dungeon(story mode/explorable)
2.) Which runs are the easiest to solo (if possible)
3.) Build you used or recommend now.I am looking to see if it is possible to solo dungeons with a necro. I have seen the warrior videos from wethospu (sorry if I misspelled) and only one necro in TA. Thanks
1. I do SE p1 most days for fun.
2. SE p1 is great: No silver mob groups. All bosses can be pulled so it’s 1v1. And most importantly, none of the fights become so long that they’re tedious (bosses are champs except last one who is legendary). It’s got to be the easiest dungeon to solo.
3. I use minions for the first two bosses (golem and Nokk) and the last boss (Tazza). The buff to the healing minion a few patches back has made it really good for this dungeon. I started with knights armor and trinkets but am slowly swapping out for berserkers piece by piece as I get better at the dungeon. I use what’s almost certainly an unoptimal 30/0/20/0/20 (that’s my WvW build that I don’t like to change just for this dungeon).
Try it!!! Running this dungeon solo and slowly improving my times has been the best PvE experience I’ve had in this game. Note that if you move behind Tazza while you are her only foe (all your minions are down) then she will reset and you will be VERY angry.
by the way:
HotW p1 is also doable, but the last boss is REALLY tedious.
SE p1 is almost certainly doable as well, but the APC part is REALLY tedious (i’ve never done the last boss solo).
Wouldn’t a vampire/bunker build be good for this?
30 blood/ 30 power
Siphoning wells
All soldiers gear, and really good use of Los?
DS power build can solo most content. You have stability and good access to damage so it doesnt take too long.
I’m currently using the juggermancer/abomination build.
Full soldiers dagger/focus, staff.
WoD/WoS/x utilities with whichever elite suites the need.
I started SE story just to see how tough it would be. (Plus I still need to do it as well) time restraint caused me to only pull the first group and I died fast. I am going to try again with this build with more time allowed.
The DS power build sounds like it could have good potential. I am willing to try anything tho.

SE story isn’t too bad to solo, but it’s quite long and sometimes requires a lot of running back when you die. The part with Zojja opening the locked door is probably gonna be pretty hard (when I solo’ed this, I guess there was a glitch as the mobs didn’t appear until the door was way past 50% unlocked). Good luck!
