hey guys. i don't know if i'm opening this thread in the weong topic or not but i think it is ok here. so i'm here with... an advice and that is what title said: skirmish should be able to complete them in solo mode. i mean low level skirmishes for sure and not prophecy or throne for example. why am i think it is would be nice? because low level skirmishes are easy af but no one queue to them altought they gove you in-game titles for their areas. if someone want to collect every in-game title from quests they/we have to wait for 4 more players to queue and usually it takes forever. the reason is why i'm opening this thread right now is happened with me today i wanted to complete the defend the village (cap at level 57) skirmish and i'm level 57 at the moment. i was in the queue for 4 hours (!!!!!!!!!!!!) waiting only for this skirmish and still couldn't get in now i have to go to sleep and try it tomorrow. and i can't do anything til it is not completed cause if i'm level up i don't will be able to queue to this skirmish. so why we can't solo low level skirmishes??

    Almost all of the leveling skirmishes roll around in Call To Arms events. It might take a year, but you can go back & pick up those quest rewards.

    I asked about removing the number of player requirements from the private queues before.
    I don't get why we're forced to find x players when we want to at least attempt it ourselves or with less players then the requirement dictates.

    Rather than just queuing up and hoping other people will also queue, go to the zone that the skirmish is from (in this case, Rothe Valley), and ask in /zone for other people to run the skirmish. You are very likely to find other people who want to complete it.

    The obvious answer is, because it's a team event. I don't see any problem with that nor do I personally have the desire to do a solo attempt. Every bit helps, and you'll always be quicker with 5 people than you are by yourself. It's fine with me.

    I see your point, but for me, it's just a daily AD grind I'd like to do ASAP and not worry about AFK'er, drama, lag, crying kids, smoke breaks, newbies attracted to red circles, etc.
    I'd run in and solo ToS norm for the 5k and leave. Right now, I have to inspect and see if they can run, and/or leave and hope I get a good party. It gets old. I just want the AD then bounce.

    I'm not saying always solo, but get rid of the number of players requirements so maybe 2/3 or 3/5.
    What would that hurt?

    On the other hand, I'm not overly fond of people that go into the dungeons and run to the end as fast as possible.
    I'm not looking for forgiveness, and I'm way past asking permission. Earth just lost her best defender, so we're here to fight. And if you want to stand in our way, we'll fight you too.

    privat queues need to have the number of players requirement removed period....

    i see how someone who loves to be carried thru a instance and has a empty friendlist may be against that but...

    for anyone else it is not a problem if you want 5 man do 5 man if you want to 2-man it why not.......
    Please fix Zhentarim Warlock companion's skill "Arcane Warping" to the originally intended "Arcane Boost"

    Pure -> Transcendent Plague Fire weapon enchantment giving 80damge/20 seconds for 500k+ AD is a joke.

    So this would be in your interest, too. Bc the ppl running for ADs will prefer a solo run to waiting for the two other ppl.

    Thing is, 2 weeks later we will see the same as with EDemo and Tiamat runs. Low IL players running alts for the AD grind will complain, that there is no one to carry them.
