    Does that mean they're impossible to complete solo mechanically once you're in them, or that they can't be started woth less than 4 (or 8) in your party?

    The latter - you only need to have the required amount of members to join the dungeon, once in and if someone leaves you're not restricted in any way by completing it in less than required amount of players. However - the game will automatically sync (decrease the level) of your gear and available actions if you join with character more than 3 levels above the level of the dungeon. So - for example - if you join lvl 16 dungeon with lvl 50 character your overall level will be synced down to lvl 19 including removing temporarily any ability above that level from your skills as well so it will be pretty hard to complete the whole dungeon on your own like that. As DPS - you can forget about "soloing" dungeons as you'll be unable to deal with most of the bosses or any groups of mobs of size more than 3.

    Duh, forgot about the lvl sync - been awhil;e since I ran a low man dungeon. Yeah, pretty tough to solo those. I can understand wanting the challenge though.

    Because you have to use duty finder to enter a dungeon there is no way to go in there solo or duo. Even if you had a party of two people, when you que up in the DF it will make you wait until they find two other players (or 6 for 8 man dungeon) to enter the instance. I suppose if you really wanted to try and solo a low man dungeon once you hit 50 you could ask some LS mates to go in with you and drop as soon as you load in. But, as far as soloing a lvl 50 dugeon, I think would be pretty tough since there are alway large packs that ALWAYS agro together, no way to do single pulls and mobs won't deagro until you're dead.
