Siege of orgrimmar anti solo?

Tried it just now and it worked :dracthyr_shrug:

Who knows, maybe it just decided not to that day.

I guess it’s not out of the question that a bug was fixed or something…I haven’t tried it again since then.

If I recall correctly the skip was very buggy when it was first put in, so it’s not surprising if it’s just flaky in general.

Guess I’ll punch Garrosh a bit now that I’m here lol

Do you have to complete SOO on mythic before the skip is available on other difficulties? I was trying it on normal (and the toon I was on has been through SOO normal many times). I have never done mythic.

No clue. What I tried just now was Mythic.

Oh well, since I’ve finished my remix bone collecting and bought all the heirlooms, I’ll probably try again tonight.

Even within remix, it was a puzzling decision to revert the solo-ablility of the encounter, especially when an obvious remix goal is to eventually attempt to solo all the raids.

(I’m currently still blocked by the dps check on the second-last Heart of Fear boss before he uses an ability that’s an insta-wipe for solo attempts - I think I’ll eventually overcome it, but it will take some time; but I guess my run will ultimately hit a hard wall in SoO even if I eventually can get through all the encounters before it)

Live SoO IS Remix. They share the same raid, that’s why folks are having these issues ā€œoutsideā€ of Remix.

Galakras being broken on live is not surprising to me.

I found out through happenstance that at least the Landfall questline is broken on live. As there was a new step added to one of the quests that tells you to step through a portal to go to Stormwind that does not appear on the live version of the game, and skipping this step does not work causes the NPC in Bizmo’s Brawlpub to bug and not progress the quest.

You have to purchase the stupid portal in order to work and I hate that.

I guess I just didn’t see where to purchase the portal, and I looked around a lot and didn’t find the NPC I was told to find. In remix, the portal just shows up right next to the questgiver.

On live you have to use battle accommodations to purchase the portal from the accommodations vender.

Just curious since the event has ended, is Siege completely soloable again? Galakras was broken in retail during remix.

They changed SoO for remix. They’ll probably go back now that it’s over.

The developers will first have to find the time to push the buttons to restore stuff, and they’re a little busy right now.

It was still in the unsoloable state yesterday when I went to check.
SoO is still on a daily lockout.

So … looks like the decommissioning of remix is still a work in progress?

( There is a skip-scroll by Cho inside the entrance that wasn’t there for me in remix, but it was a normal-difficulty, full RP version of the Garrosh fight despite entering the raid at mythic difficulty - not sure if that’s how that scroll worked before, I’d never used that skip before )

They made it to where you need a group for Galakras sometime after remix started. The scroll to skip to Garrosh has been there for a long time. I’m not sure why they messed with Galakras but I wish they changed it back to the way it was. It is currently impossible to solo.
