When you do it as ret are you in pure dps gear or some prot gear? Did some SSC the other night and did great until the one boss with 3 or 4 adds. Can't remember his name but got my butt handed to me.

Wait you can't pull 15k dps on Malygos (heyooooo sparks!) with 476 gear? Press buttons more? (or wear dps gear, there isn't really that much 10 man content in WotLK up to ulduar that needs prot specc anyway)
Didn't do Karathress for a while, but I soloed him as Ret during Dragon Soul, but as his shadowbolt does 50% max hp damage, it can be a problem again because you have to heal up 180k hp, but probably doable.
Do him as ret. His adds and him just melt. I did 7:56 kill in 460 ret gear.
I've soloed Malygos at 85. On my first kill I killed him 2 seconds after enrage, that was basically last tick of my dot while I was falling down to my death from dragon. Next kills were smoother and I had almost 1 spare minute on my best kill.

The spec in question was ret. Of course he is much easier in prot, it's not hard to pull the dps required to kill him before enrage, since it only requires about 21k or so, provided you can survive all the Meteor Slashes.
Killed him yesterday in 5:32 as ret. Got Azure drake finally, never going to come back there.
Also, Onyxia dropped in 2:12 for me. 2nd phase was just like "she lifts off, flies to the other end of the room and lands". Didn't get a single big add.
Ret is awesome for soloing nowadays.
With MoP vengeance have been nerfed when it comes to certain old raid soloing making our damage bit lower, however our survivability is alot higher.
I havent done much solo'ing personally since pre mop patch cause been busy with raids and stuff, However at 85 Most of Ulduar/Naxx were at least possible (exept Gluth/Thorim) But they should be easy doable now i can Imagine.
As Ret:
In Cata, it was possible to solo 3/4 in AV, now it's possible to do all 4. (It's an EXTREMELY close race on the ice guy, because my second gear is garbage)
Kaelthas is also easily soloable since Cata.
Alysrazor isn't possible as ret atm, since P2 got fixed and it's no longer possible to
make Alysrazor leave the circle after he has recharged.
I don't solo that much more, because I just want to get those sweet mounts.

ok... how the hell do you beat kael in TK. I spread them out, then try and kill the chick first, but they seem to run to her and then i am screwed.. and can you solo Hyjal? Haven't tried that one yet.
Are you sure about this, can anyone confirm? I was able to solo her at the start of this week fine. Will find out after raid reset tomorrow/thursday anyway.Alysrazor isn't possible as ret atm, since P2 got fixed and it's no longer possible to

I just kill them all inside. As soon as all 4 advisors spawn at the same time I make sure I'm standing by Capernian, and hit all CDs. Start with Divine Shield so she doesn't punt me away, then just inq-goak-aw and just nuke Capernian down. After that it's just collect loot and go.
I'm trying to solo Alysrazor HC at the moment with 484 ilvl gear. I managed to survive harsh winds and it's confirmed that Alysrazor still flies out to the Ryolith's Ramp. I died to her aoe during his cleave tho.
Although I don't need to do this heroic for the mount, It's fun to solo this fight.
Good luck with your solo's.
Most of you will probably know this, but you can solo Sarth 3D with ease as Ret

Psh, 25man ftw.
Only problem with hyjal is the third(?) boss, who has a nasty tendancy to put doom on you (which insta-kills you)
As a paladin, you can bubble the first one, but you're toast by the time the second comes around, so you'll need monster dps to kill him before he kills you (or hope he dosen't reset between attempts)
Don't know about the others, but already did all of ICC apart from Gunship, Blood Queen and Valithria at level 85.
