Greeting, i know it is possible to finish the game solo on nightmare as knight-enchanter, rogue-archer and probably rogue with dual's.
But what about warriors? Anyone tried it?

I don't see it with the dual wield rogue, honestly. It would be tough, because stealth is a little buggy (for me at least) and the enemies will still keep attacking you for a good 5+ seconds which will knock you back out of stealth if they hit, enemies that are melee may also chase you for a few seconds as well. It's possible, just not ideal. The flank attack ability that they use which also makes you stealth with the upgraded version seems to work just fine in combat unlike the ability stealth in the subterfuge tree.
As for warriors, I've heard of people soloing dragons and such later in the game as a champion/vanguard/sword and board build, but they seem to have too much trouble soloing at the start of the game on nightmare.
The main problem is early game. People might be able to solo the last 20% of the game with most classes, but the first 20% is completely different. Finishing the game solo with a Knight Enchanter is certainly much easier than becoming a Knight Enchanter purely solo - though I know some people are trying or thinking of trying.
As for the Warrior, I can only imagine it having tedious, very long fights because of its high survivability VS low damage output (considering one would play a WnS, not 2H for solo). Maybe a WnS Reaver late game could be interesting, though I am still somewhat skeptical about playing the whole thing solo. Also, I presume it is on Nightmare.
this guy soloed nightmare as a sword and shield reaver
You can easily solo Nightmare with a warrior.
Charging Bull + Mighty Blow is a beautiful thing in the early game.
I think warriors are the most suited class to solo the entire game on nightmare ( Including the most difficult part which is before Skyhold) however the combat will take ages each time since you will have very low damage. After Skyhold it will be a lot easier since you can go either Templar or Reaver and get some nice damage to get things moving but after Skyhold almost every class can solo nightmare.
i think shield wall and charging bull r ur friend while soloing early on...together with the no flanking passive
It is possible to do a Nightmare solo playthrough with any class/spec combo, some are easier than others for obvious reasons: mage, archer rogue and sword/shield warrior to name a few.
My last nightmare solo was with a 2h warrior and it's completely possible, even without the OP nonsense that comes in the SS tree.
There are certain things you need to account for to make the experience enjoyable (I am certain anyone with enough patience can slog through it even without the prep), but since the title specifies no spoilers I won't ruin the prepwork. Good luck =P
Man, I have deep respect for anyone who can solo the first part on nightmare (you know the fight I'm talking about).
