Can You Really Solo Uldir in Dragonflight?

As a hardcore WoW raider and mythic+ enthusiast, one of the things I love doing every new expansion is pushing my soloing limits on old raid content for mounts and transmogs. With the revamped talents and abilities in Dragonflight, there‘s definitely more solo power than ever before. But does that make tricky raids like Uldir actually soloable now?

The short answer is yes…partially. Uldir on Normal and Heroic difficulties is largely soloable up until Mythrax for well-geared and skilled solo players. However, Mythrax and Ghuun still provide extremely difficult encounters that cannot realistically be soloed by any class yet.

Let‘s dig into the details:

Soloing Uldir Bosses in Dragonflight

Here‘s the rundown on feasibly soloable bosses in Uldir currently in Dragonflight:

• Taloc, Mother, Fetid Devourer, Zek‘voz, Vectis – These early bosses don‘t pose much threat even for mediocre solo builds now. Expect quick sub-5 minute kills.
• Zul, Mythrax – These bosses start requiring optimized solo specs and gear. But they can be overcome with practice by many classes and skilled players.
• Ghuun – Despite insane solo power creep, Ghuun remains extremely challenging with his mechanics on Mythic. He has only been recorded killed by a handful of well-geared Fire Mages so far in Dragonflight.

To illustrate just how hard Ghuun and Mythrax are, let‘s check the Dragonflight season Mythic statistics so far according to WarcraftLogs:

As you can see, those last three bosses still pose a monumental challenge to solo compared to the earlier ones. But Zul is starting to become realistic for certain classes and players.

So in summary, most of Uldir is feasibly soloable on Normal/Heroic now, except its infamous end bosses.

Other Soloable Raids in Dragonflight

Uldir isn‘t the only raid that has seen its solo difficulty rating drop in Dragonflight. Let‘s look at a few other raids and how soloable they are:

Ny‘alotha (N‘zoth) – This recent raid is still quite difficult to solo for most specs, but Demon Hunters and Blood DKs have been able to take down Heroic N‘zoth and even some Mythic bosses. Expect more specs to be viable here soon.

Antorus (Argus) – Previously only a handful of classes could even dream of soloing mythic legion raids like Antorus. But thanks to Dragonflight‘s new damage multipliers for Legion content, many classes like Rogues, Monks and DKs are now farming Mythic Argus kills weekly.

Dragonflight Raids – Forget soloing Sepulcher of the First Ones now. Vault of the Incarnates and future Dragonflight raids still very much require normal groups, even on Raid Finder difficulty for at least the first few tiers.

So old raids required for transmogs like Ny‘alotha are starting to bend the knee for well-geared solo players in Dragonflight. But expect the very latest raids still to offer a minumum challenge barrier.

Best Solo Classes in Dragonflight

If you really want to get into solo raiding right now, these classes have risen to the top in Dragonflight for handling the most difficult solo content:

1. Havoc Demon Hunter – Insane self-healing combined with Chaos Brand debuff makes them able to whittle down end bosses.

2. Unholy Death Knight – Army of the Dead provides a solo mini-raid team and incredible burst potential.

3. Affliction/Destruction Warlock – Tank pets, range, crazy syphon life sustain and burst damage from shard generation.

4. Marksmanship/Beast Mastery Hunter – Lone Wolf and the flexibility of swappable ferocity/tenacity pets makes them very adaptable.

5. Windwalker/Brewmaster Monk – Stagger, frequent cooldowns and insane burst healing keeps them alive.

The advantage these specs share are options for tanking pets, great self-healing and sprint/gap closers to handle mechanics. Plus they all have phenomenal damage output potential in moment-to-moment combat and via cooldown bursts.

If you don‘t play one already, I highly recommend Havoc Demon Hunter and Unholy DK for easiest and most powerful soloing currently!

Gearing Up Your Solo Character

Once you‘ve settled on a spec, following some general solo gearing principals can help tackle the hardest bosses:

Tier Sets – Tier gear is far more important than secondary stats. The 4pc and sometimes 2pc bonuses are absolutely mandatory.

Leech/Speed – Get as much +leech and +speed as you can on gear, enchants and gems. Surviving and outpacing mechanics is key.

Trinkets – On-use trinkets that boost damage, healing or even add external cooldown timers are tremendously useful.

Gem Sockets – Sockets on nearly every piece massively increase primary stats. Crafted gear is excellent here.

Hopefully this gives some good tips and updated data points on pushing your solo raiding to the next level in Dragonflight! Let me know if you have any other solo questions and I‘ll be happy to research and share anything I can find from top performers out there.
