With Camo at 85, places like Heroic MagsTerrace are a breeze since you can just go all sneaky sneaky past the vast majority of the mobs. Of late, I’ve been doing Kara as well (yay for completing the key quest!) to try and get THAT mount into my collection.

Given the other posts in this thread, I’m debating having at SSC and seeing about getting 2T5 for some really epic fun.

And since the hp pool is shared you only need to kill one and they both die. if i’m wrong then i’m wrong. another way of soloing twins (just a thought of how it could be done) put your pet on one side of the room, you go to the other, have a macro to pull the pet to where your at for the teleports and run to where your pet is at.) your pet prob needs to stay on the one immune to magic and prob go sv spec for the elemental damage or bm and spam cobra and acrane with bw up when you can on the other boss. the trick is to keep them apart and using the t5 2pc might be a must. give it a try and let me know if it works or not.

I solo in SV spec.

To date, I have soloed all of AQ10, everything up to Twins in AQ40 (except the slime boss, you need frost attacks to kill him, and if Twins are soloable by a Hunter, I haven’t managed to figure out how yet), All of MC (Rags went down like a b*tch. Hardest boss is the Harbinger, since he’s got 4 healers), KZ to Chess (Medivh cheats like a MOTHER!), and the first boss of Mount Hyjal.

I’m sure if I respecced BM, I’d get farther, but I really don’t like BM.

I know I find it helpful to see how you’ve broken it down all at once.

I think it’s time I did. Thank you for giving me a link to where to find them.

I was just looking at soloing difficulty.

As an update, I successfully soloed every remaining boss in Dragonblight, INCLUDING Kreug. And by being smart, i didn’t get feared into mobs. The fear effect gets triggered so damn frequently that I was only able to Bestial Wrath out of it once. Still and all of that, I can’t recall ever soloing Kreug before.
