What ammo are you using? If your homing grenades are your source of armour damage (w/ your weapon) it may be worth investing in phasic rounds or if you can squeeze it, incendiary if you aren't already.

Incendiary gives you an extra 3 seconds before enemy shields come back, makes all the difference in the world I found.

I was using the build 4/6/6/4/6, I wasn't realy using Homing grenades too much, I was going PPR and Wraith with AProunds, and using arc grenades to keep barriers from regenerating.  Homing grenades were really just for setting off tech bursts, and the extra grenade slot for my Arc.  But I'll have to try Incendiary+Arc for FE's.  Or give on the Demolisher..

Nooo! I just failed on Wave 10 with the Demolisher on Hydra! Wave 3..Circle Hack..Wave 6...Circle Hack...Wave 10..Pizza delivery across the map=Fail. Well that's 71 minutes of my life I'll never get back...


Added:
Well I guess I'll try again...runnin'&gunnin was working pretty well.  But maybe this time I'll go GE, a little faster and more shields..

Second Addition:
Tried again...wave 10 targets, failed again! Image IPB I  was about to kill the third target when a Banshee came up behind me and synched me.. Image IPB
I give up on the Demolisher..

Ouch, atleast I know there's someone to help carry my burden..Image IPB  My second attempt I had to use 2 rockets on the Wave 6 objective, (Disable devices) because it put it right in the middle of the map!  Almost didn't disable the devices in time, all that running around to draw them away..Image IPB  So, wave 10 targets came around..3 rockets..4 targets..Rocket 1, Rocket 2, Tried to kill the 3rd, and rocket the fourth...Dangg Banshee..

Just tried demo solo on reactor geth.
3 primes on wave 2 with every single nook and cranny being a incoming prime shot.
Way too much bs for my blood.

Haha, I feel you deserve some congratulations even just for having the guts to try! :lol:

No see I opted out of Homing, dumb thing really in hindsight, if anything I should opt out of arc, spec purely for power on homing and acolyte everything.
But I'm tempted to actually spec out of Pylon and go for something like Hazard Giant or White with a grenade rich map.
Rio would be so tempting if the banshee warps weren't so bs there haha. 

Next time I'll try a 6/0/6/6/6 - Crusader + acolyte. Maybe tomorrow, most likely next Sunday though. So doubt I'll be the first =P

Edit: Claymore, not crusader. I don't know what I'm talking about anymore.

Also, video for my FQE solo is up:




It was very funny to watch your video after doing the same enemy/map combination. We even had the same objectives in reversed order.:P


Lolz, my run is the bizarro world equivalent of yours. :P

Speccing out of the Pylon really isn't a bad idea if you never even intend to camp in one spot, though you'll probably miss it if you get a hacking objective. Still, it's definitely a good idea for all the regular waves.

Goddess may be a good map for that too.

Taking pylon in a solo build to me doesn't make much sense, unless its deployed at a place you are going to be running past often. Its recast animation is also a little too long for my liking.

I would be inclined to go harrier / claymore with incendiary, use a homing grenade to force hand of denial from the phantoms then BLAM claymore to the face.

I'm toying with the idea of going Platinum solo with a Human Engie and I wonder what you people think about it and what builds you'd suggest for it. Given the fact that Platinum is boss-saturated, I guess skipping the Drone entirely would be one way to go.

No! Take a few points in drone.

The drone is a winner for target objectives.

Because bosses don't target the drone (well, primes do) you can deploy the drone to follow the boss around and it will shock it just often enough to prevent shield regen, allowing you enough time to kite the enemies away, double back and finish the target off.

Well I didn't spec out of the turret for my FQE one and I wouldn't spec out of the drone on a HE if I were to do one. I really like having them if I get four devices, plus they are just good at creating split second distractions that allow you to run past enemies when things get hairy.

I'd use a 6/6/6/4/4 build myself, using Incendiary ammo and something like a Talon or Wraith.

That's a very good tip too.

What, no Krogan Sentinel Platinum solo here yet? Do I need to take "Fluffy The Pink Angry Krogan Medic" out of retirement and do this?

I see. What would you recommend for weapons and equipment?

Well, hurricane would be a great choice + incendiary ammo. Overload would be your anti-phantom ability, then set them on fire with the hurricane and detonate with incinerate.

You may also want to consider including something longer range too.

I usually use Paladin on Gold, but I'm not sure how effective that would be on Platinum. It would help keep my cooldowns pretty low too.

Thanks :) - Died with 11 seconds left on first attempt - had brutal wave 10 objective.  4 Devices with last two in courtyard.  Burned a bunch of consumables just getting through Wave 10 and bleed out on wave 11.

This game went smoother Pizza, Devices, Pizza if I recall correctly.

Incendiary+shockwave mostly.  Harder to dodge.

AoE saved my ass more times than I could count.

Updated the original post with links and filled out the missing infromationz.

It's only been just over a week and already we've fleshed our list out quite a bit.
