Can you do it with 3 hirelings?

I don't have any friends (noone but me is crazy enough to play this game), and my playtime is different from PUG groups gathering on Argo. That's why I will be trying to solo raids.

Wait, are the levers all that's keeping us from soloing von5 ?

I propose they break the lever system in the next update....

Till then, 2 players NO pets. if the players are any competent.

If you're fast with killing the phylacteries, you could just heal the pet, grab aggro from all the stuff except the dragon, port back in, repeat.

They might have been BS'ing me, but someone (cannot remember who atm) told me that it was possible to solo von5 with pet. No idea how, though.

What? You're claiming you don't know the cheats?

FTFY.

Old von 6 solo tactic was inside with the dragon and you could range all 3 pillars. No need for pets etc

No idea if that works on epic or works at all anymore

Does Duo Mark of Death count? we each "Soloed" our own parts..

If you had a lot of mnemonic pots and ruin, you could get the battle ragers and deathlords to jump off the side. Then, park your pet on the safe spot, grab aggro from everything, kill a shadow, etc.

It would suck, be really time and pot consuming, but you could probably do it, and you'd have to be an artie or druid.

The last run I was in where we did that - tossed everyone off the side, damaged the dragon only via ruin, some ranged guy kept firing at her. Does anyone know of a ranged attack that can damage her while 4 deathlords have spawned?  Either that or he was just bored and shot her for no reason whatsoever.

Edit: forgot about the panther and the owl bear.  Wait...don't they count as hirelings?

They are hirelings, sadly. Hiding wrote on Sep 13^th, 2014 at 12:13pm:

Dont need them to jump off, just kill em when you get back out of each phylactery.

Duo doesn't count, it has been done plenty of times, it was even done on the first week of Lamannia lol.

They will find your pet, the deal is beating the phylactery before they do so. The AIs in the endfight are very retarded and once you take the portal it takes them awhile to realize there is somebody else in the top floor before they start looking for him.
