NEW

So I completed my second gold solo. I stubbornly tried 4 times last night on Rio (my first attempts at gold solos were also on Rio). I got to wave 8 each time and failed with no gels left.

Tonight I sat down for my first match and decided to go with Dagger. I also brought the responder loadout just incase but I only ended up using 4 gels (I fraking hate enemy projectile tracking). I survived the first 6 waves and died for the first time on the 7th. I also used 3 cobras though none were actually necessary.

My objectives were
3: Pizza
6: Targets (brutes)
10: Drone
They all went rather smoothly

OLD

So I completed my first gold solo. I tried 3 times before in one sitting but it was half hearted at best. I ran the PV (first time ever) with no equipment, a level I valkyrie, on Rio vs Reapers (It went about as well as you might expect given that info).

This time, on a whim, I decided to give it a real go.

I only used 3 gels (got 5 waves survived, more than 5 waves but I don't remember how many) and one was in the last 10 seconds. I got super lucky. At 25 seconds I made my run to the LZ and a banshee warp caught me. I saw it was going to kill me just as I met the LZ. I rezzed with 4 seconds left.

I also got real lucky on wave 8. The last banshee tried to grab me but let me go.

I used 4 missles pretty much just to make the waves go by faster, I used all my ops packs and 3 thermal packs.

Objectives:
Wave 3: Targets (used a missle on the first banshee to switch it to brutes)
Wave 6: Hack on the lower level
Wave 10: 4hack

Here are some pics.

Length of games is the thing that is holding me back from solo attempts on gold. I am taking a couple of weeks off in early Dec when my dog gets neutered so perhaps I'll give it a whirl then.

Edit:  Oh what objectives did you get?

Ah yes, I knew I forgot something.

5 fortification would've let you burn things better

Regardless, good job.

[Homey C-Dawg]

Congrats. I remember my first gold solo. It's quite a feeling of accomplishment.

[ISHYGDDT]

Congratulations. Your first gold solo is quite an accomplishment.

BTW: If you do want to do another to get Lone Wolf, I think White is a better choice though (2 grenades in 4/5 boxes)

[Beerfish]

Ughhhhh 4 hack on wave 10. You did well. That is the one objective that gives me real problems.

Thank you sir!

As for Fort, I figured I didn't need the DR with full fitness nor did I need the melee and I didn't want to slow my carnage use any further.

That said, I only just started using the Krosol yesterday (had never even actually specced him) so I was a bit green on building him. Worked out though.

It's funny, these challenges has added a whole heap of characters to my favorites list.

Oh, hands were raised and a cheer was let out for sure.

[ryoldschool]

Congrats. Maybe bioware will give us one of those special equipment packs so you can do more. Good job.

[Blind2Society]

^ Let's hope so. Notice the level one amp and ammo? It's all I had.

Yeah, the constant grenade circuits were a chore. But hey, Urdnot Boom had to protect Tuchanka from the Reaper pijacks.

Yeah there were a couple of close calls (banshees reaching me just as I finished a hack) but no missles were used until the end of the wave to finish it off.

Honestly I was hoping for 3 pizza deliveries, but it wasn't meant to be I suppose.

Oh I remember that. was the first time in a long time I got an elevated heartrate during a match. Also I remember finding it weird that the dude on the radio kept calling me "team" ;-)

Congrats ;-)

[ParthianShotX]

Congratulations! I'm working my way up to it but not ready yet (not by far).

I recommend Geth/reactor with turian ghost. I completed In 35 min. I sometimes have pugs take that long. Still, pugs are more fun. Soloing is boring.

[MAELXTROM]

Nice job OP.

Harrier TGI takes 30 minutes or less for gold Reaper solo, no worse than an exceptionally bad gold pug.

I thought about doing Geth to avoid sync kills, then I realised I would probably end up smashing stuff from all the rage.

Congratulations! Krogan Soldier is quite fun to play indeed!

Congrats, Op! ^^

[Grinch57]

Congrats. I'm not there yet, but someday, I hope. Great job. Well done, OP.

[AaronEh]

Good job! I used the Batarian Soldier for my first Solo against Reapers - Inferno Grenades for everyone!

[PinklySmooth]

I remember my first Gold solo a month ago, took 54 minutes. Did my second one a couple days ago and shaved off 20 minutes. Now it's more efficient for me to solo golds then do PuGs xD

[Kenadian]

Why u no use HVB on Claymore?

[Computron2000]

Congrats and you did it straight without the kroguard and got the 5 waves survived to boot.
