      I see timeless isle just rich with opportunity to grind out rep, farm the timeless coins, and get the boa gear for alts. I would love to a profile for this like as soon as possible when the bot comes up. I wish i knew how to make my own because i totally would. I feel there is a lot of opportunity there.

      You and about 4000 other users. I can tell you that there will be profiles out within 2-3 days. I for one will be making one myself although most of my work never makes it to public release since I just don't have the time to do it and there are many profiles out by the time I can get any decent profile out there. But there are 5 or so really good reputation profile writers and I can guarantee you there will be profiles like this. You don't even have to ask for this because the forums will be flooded with these profiles in the next 3 or so days.

      There are new custom behaviors which can be used to handle most mob encounters so long as the class of toon is capable. Don't expect a priest to be able to kill the same mobs a Blood DK, Monk can kill.

      Actually they can, I've been doing it since the patch went live and I could log in on all the diff classes, its more or less a movement situation. For instance, when the tiger gets to say .10 secs from pounce, I just move to the right until he lands. then just back up out of the stuff on the ground. I've been using the same movements for each class and spec and getting the same results. Granted., I wouldn't say do a rep run with a bunch of others while tanking on say a priest or what not. but as far as what can be solo'd.

      In terms of self healing, maybe. But, just around the corner from the TI flight master, is archierius. And a stack of elites on a small raised area.

      Looks ordinary, kind of hits like a freight train because he's got elites that like to set the place on fire.

      Arguably, you could solo 1 trash mob. Not 2. You need a group just to heal the melee and the fire cleave/pooling that mob does. A pet class could manage it, a tank will often die in the pull, etc.

      I levelled a spriest to 90, the fight is doable, but not even close to survivable as solo, they hit harder than the bosses in the battlefield barrens.

      Just wanted to add, just watched a buddy of mine pretty much solo'd all the elites on the island with a disc priest. So........it can be done with a priest. at least disc, not sure about holy.

      Well, you may be right. Having spent 9+ hours farming coins and rares, there's no real difficult mobs. Mostly because of the shared tags, every one can now loot and share kills. Death, is trivial, and 500+ ilvl is easier to get with valor and burden upgrades for 496 gear.

      However, the day that TI becomes dead, much like the isle of giants, soloing cinderfall as a disc or shadow, or holy priest will be an adventure. (Oh boy that guy likes setting everything on fire)

      the main issue is not the 1v1 fights, its the chain pulling or respawning of groups of 2 to 6 mobs.. Soloing cinderfall, works great until 4 elites suddenly drop you to 2300 health as they spawn behind you. I was farming shaohao rep, 11 mobs at a time, etc in a group of 3 of 4, etc. and yeah, disc + demo + dk, chewed through an entire area for 3 hours, no drama. I certainly didn't get much DPS, but I was cranking 40k at times while grouped up & tank chaining all the mobs around us.

      Grinding TI is going to take everyone a while to get sick of, especially when people start going for bloody coins, same faction PvP is enthusiastic.

      Now that object gatherer is updated (mostly), grind profiles can be made easier and simpler. Though, some time is needed for the difficult pickup items still, like the boats, etc.
