Linthenius.3704 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I remember when I first did this a long time ago, it required a group since it was designed as an actual dungeon quest type thing. I'm making my way to this mission again shortly and it got me wondering, is it still required to have a group? Or were there any changes I missed?

Crossaber.8934 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 It was at one point being reworked to allow solo completion. The reason because it is a story instance and thus, shouldn't require a party to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blambidy.3216 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hmmmm if your talking the personal story..... I have done that with my elementalist and finished by myself. It’s not required but you might struggle. If you don’t want to struggle then get a party. But have to? Not even close. More of like do you want to play and struggle a little bit? But have to have a party? not close. If you don’t want to play alone. Just having one other player is more then enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stone cold.8609 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 No party needed. Can be soloed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meestercat.2748 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Nope, I did it solo on my Daredevil just the other day. There are annoying bits (dragons n turrets) but it’s definitely doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I struggled a lot back then, but still made it. I did it again a few weeks ago with condi thief, and it was like doing a Tier 1 fractal, maybe even easier. Classes apparently became much stronger since that story was created, so if you have some experience in this game, the challenges in the story are rather boring. I suggest you just go ahead and start it, and see if you need help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallesafe.5932 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I actually just did this tonight (about 4 hours ago) on my daredevil. And my eyes were glazing over from boredom. You definitely don't need a group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Blackfeather.6509 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 No group needed. Some parts become less tedious if two players, so maybe bring one more with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not easy and some bits might be easier with a group but you can finish the entire thing solo if you want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember how annoyed people were at that gate because without it some players could have soloed the original version (even though it was designed to be a 5-man dungeon) but because of that one little bit it was impossible.But I'm glad they made it possible for everyone to do it solo. It was fun doing it with friends, but it's more convenient this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
