Does anyone know when we can solo-queue into FCoB? I thought they were going to let us do this after the April 14th maintenance (2 weeks after patch 2.55) but that has not happened yet. Or do we have to wait until xpansion.

04-15-2015, 06:50 PMseekifiedCoils usually don't become solo-DFable until the next coil (or Alexander in this case) is released. I bet we'll have to wait for 3.0, or at least a fair bit longer. And to be fair, why would you even want to at this point? ;) It's hard enough to find capable pug groups as it is, putting eight complete strangers together and expect them to do stuff like tether + charge right doesn't seem like a good idea until the community has had loads more time to learn.Quote:

I got my t9 clear in the DF. It took me days for the clear though, due to not having much experience in the divebomb phase.
In my opinion, giving people the option of clearing it in DF would help people who do not have statics and do not have the time to wait for an hour in PF for people to join a learning pt due to a lack of tanks/heals on their server. -

Ok. There are some, lots are there not, and you don't know how many of that DF team maybe queued together.
Maybe I am wrong judging from my own experiences with T9 and DF, just the wording of "It took me days for the clear though", as if days were a long time to try, especially on DF, got me thinking.
I'm not at all against being able to solo queue it btw. -

I solo q'd t9 a couple weeks ago and cleared it, after only attempting it twice before that. Took our group 4 tries, but on the final try we did it with no deaths. Obviously the reason we were able to clear was because a 5-man premade q'd up for it and they were able to guide the rest of us through it, but I like to think that isn't that rare of an occurrence. You get 5 people together who know their stuff and they just need a few more dps to fill the spots, so they use df.

I believe the patch released this morning allows this. 2.56.
