Raid groups are no longer necessary to enter pre-Mists of Pandara raid dungeons. Some bosses that previously required more than one player to defeat are now more easily dealt with by players battling alone:
  • High Warlord Naj'entus in the Black Temple
  • Viscidus in the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj
  • Razorgore the Untamed in Blackwing Lair


I just wanna say THANK YOU! Been such a PITA to find someone to help in BWL, now I can finally go alone and keep wishing for the bloody T2 shoulders to drop. :D

Indeed!

I'm having the same problem as Brainshake. Razorgore is not soloable in my pov. :/

"Enemies in these raids that previously required more than one player to defeat are now more easily dealt with by players battling alone."

This does not work for Reliquary of souls in Black Temple as the boss is just spamming spirit shock.. is this a bug blizzard?

I haven't actually soloed him yet, was just overjoyed by the patch notes. Have you just tried to kill him without touching the eggs at all? Does he still blow you up?

Read the first post, only 3 bosses are affected.

I find it quite disappointing that only 3 bosses got nerfed because ive looked forward to trying to solo more of the wotlk raids (or just clearing naxx faster)

Some adds should be sticking to you (but won't interrupt your channel). There's no debuff when using the orb, so you can interrupt it, clean adds, and retake control of the boss as much as you want, and you can destroy eggs non-stop (other than his 3 second cast).

Also, Razorgore has an ability that will put to sleep a dragonkin unit, this is very useful if he's under attack. Just keep practicing and make the most of the period between the pull and the first wave of adds!

Done it a few seconds ago with my warrior. I didnt killed any add, just done egg after egg. Tryed about half an hour with killing add, so i decided to kill not any of them.

High Warlord Naj'entus in the Black Temple


I just did Naj'entus and noticed no difference between 5.0.5 and 5.1. Can you elaborate as to what changed exactly?

He heals alot less when he is bubbled if you somehow wouldn't be able to deal 13k dps before he casts it

It is not a bug, doable with gag order glyph, interrupt him twice and nuke

Glad to see these changes, I suggested something along these lines a few months back.

How are the Twin Emperors in AQ40 now at 90? And C'Thun? Are these soloable for all classes now?

Both were soloable at level 85, twins just require 30k+ dps and c'thun requires you to pull ouro to same room.

Viscidus isn't doable without a class which can do frost dmg..
But currently he is staying at 1 hp

Twins weren't really doable by all classes at 85 I dont think. Pallys had an easy time on them as holy damage worked on both I believe. And maybe for DKs too? DKs weren't in the game back then, so maybe they're susceptible to their abilities?

But if 30k is all it takes, they should be easy now for anyone.

Ye, I know of the Ouro tactic on C'Thun, it's a nice work around. But it seems an easy modification to just not wipe the raid if upstairs is empty, so this would be a nice and quick change to the encounter that should not negatively affect anyone at this point.

Looks like it can't be soloed by an 85 which is pretty stupid. Mobs either attacked the boss or me which ended with me dying or the boss getting killed and me dying in the process.

I even stopped the channel multiple times to kill adds and cc'd them using the boss, but there's just too many of them that spawn.

Did this on my 85 hunter by the way. Guess it would be better on a class which could heal, but I want that sexy T2 set :(

Killed him as shadow priest! Didn't focus on adds at all, started killing eggs near the orb first, when the possession started to run out I'd put a shield on him. When adds became too many I brought him midfield, popped shield to him and once the possession ended killed many adds with Halo. Healed myself a bit and carried on killing eggs. Was tricky but manageable. I'm not sure if you can do this with any class to be honest.
