Well Anet has tried to stop this by having the monsters use strip enchantments and changing protective bond BUT today i was in UW and a 105/55 monk tanked the whole place then after i got into a difernt party and another monk did the same... he seem to keep renewing bond with out getting hurt much at all, i have been with 105 monks before the update and these guys did it JUST as easy as before.

ANET GET IT SORTED!!! TRY HARDER

And P.S no one helped these monks, they did it all on their own.

So once again someone used his brain and figured out how to run thru the maze (analogy to rats here /sarcasim) I guess the "nerfers" will start crawling out of the woodwork screeming for Anet to "fix" it.

Where's the part where you say it took ages for him to do so? Because even though it can be soloed, it's not worth it for those who did it for the money before.

Don't blame ANet. This is something very hard to solve. You're probably right, and you can still solo UW after some thinking and trying, but why don't you find a solution if it's not hard?

Solution is simple. Party size should no longer affect your drops. Your drop rates should stay static, whether you solo or go with a group of 8. You take away the reason to solo, and then there's no benefit to do so. Except for bragging rights. Which is how it should be.

Of course, an increased drop rate should go along with that

OMG!!! The shame!! The scandal!! The jealousy of what others can do that you can not...

Dude is this all you can worry about is if someone can solo a part of the game? If they can do this then so be it.

I can solo a lot of the game myself, it doesn't meen that they have to make it so you have to have team mates or henchies with you 100% of the time.

you can solo the entire game...just because the majority of players aren't smart enough to figure it out doesn't mean it's not possible. There is a class combination that will allow you to solo every area on the map. Let's not start nerfing the shit out of this game just because you have problems with someone being smarter than you are.

OH NOES! PEOPLE ARE SOLOING! QUICK! NERF TIME!

Christ. Tell me why does this need to be 'solved'? Where in 'solo' does 'problem' turn up?

I just wish soloers did more for other people and werent just in it for themselves.

This game would be so much better if the community was self servering, not self righteous.

I spend most of my time in the game helping guildmates. It's nice to get away by myself at times. I am NOT self serving nor self righteous.

And I try not to (mis)judge others.

Negative, never said that or implied it. Simply used the same line of thinking to make a point for the other team, nothing more nothing less.

BTW, I'm still waiting for the difference between Simulated Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence.

it's still better to solo, take time and have all drops to yourself than be in a party of 8 and have 1/8 of the drops...

Nerfing sucks. Cry noobs sucks. If ppl solo, whats the big problem? I dont see anything written in the EULA stating that you cant solo or farm!??!?!... AND i dont understand why is this unfair to other players. Everyone has the same oportunities.

Read a book. I really don't have the time to explain it any further than I already have. If you want to believe Artificial Intelligent actually exists more power to ya.

Seriously. Who cares? Obviously a lot of people, because this multiplayer vs solo thing is always everywhere I look. Its fine to take sides sure, but imho the game thrives on a bit of build creativity and the ability to play the game a number of different ways. What's with the desire to unify and limit options, calling for a nerf every time something creative happens? Less is not more.

I dont solo with a dedicated solo build - when I want/need to solo I've a few henchmen with me, but if someone wants to and can run around on their own, cheers on them imho. Same for people who only want to PvP, only want to PvE, only want to party, only want to use henchmen, etc.

Just my opinion. Nothing specifically for or against soloing. I just really dont understand the very solid lines drawn in the sand on a couple of these issues. If the box says multiplayer we cannot solo? Dont remember reading that fine print. Main thing against farming was the economic influences and rare availability to non-solo-ers which Anet addressed with chests and green items. I believe some of the earlier nerfs vs monks were simply towards that end, not towards eliminating solo-ing completely. I of course could be quite wrong. Sure would not be the first time.
