^ I'm done trying for week 13. I'll probably still solo although I may take a break from it.
I would have stopped playing ME3 altogether by now if it wasn't for this thread.

I know how you feel ctc. I just got targets/devices/devices on N1 II challenge... :sick:
That plus another wipe and two rage quits means I'm done soloing for a few days. Hopefully, RNG can give me some more crusaders in the meantime... and better objectives in future...

I hear you. I still haven't gotten week 13 either. I'll come back to it, but I think it's one of the most difficult challenges of the weekly ones. I also find that straight soloing gets pretty draining without switching back to casual team-play every few attempts. :) 4 players is definitely OP.

First N3 challenge completed:

N3 (I) Chooser of the Slain

Haxn14 - 24:02 (318 464 pts) [v]

This run didn't feel fast, but time became pretty decent. I guess I was lucky with objectives. Those were Escort/Pizza/Escort.

I was quite sad when I found I apparently accidentally deleted my video for my recent Chooser of the Slain redo, but it also wasn't sub-25, which was my goal, so after a few aggravatingly abrupt sync kill runs I managed to pull it off:

Will upload later.

Redid this for a faster time. Also got 10 WS... :lol: 
RNG cooperated with good objectives, juicy spawns and with enemies bunching up for easy killstreaks on waves 8 and 9.

Objectives: Escort > Pizza > Hack (cheesed)

Wow. HoF updated

@Hendrix: Very impressive time on that run! almost 4 mins closer to sub10hrs :) Looking forward to that vid!
@bgsam: That is awesome. 13 mins time shave still while hitting the 10WS. (That's it, I'm going to buy an xbox after work. 4 days has been long enough and seeing all these awesome runs is killing me.)

Resolve of the shadow broker
This was a nightmare. Things were going so well until wave 9 when windows decided to minimize the game to notify me of some updates. This meant that MSI corrupted the video. When I swtich back to the game window, I am dead on the floor with phantoms and turrets on top of me. 3 gels in a matter of seconds and extreme rage rocketing (used 4 rockets I believe -.-)
Went into wave 10 with no rockets and got loldevices. 
Game pls...Windows update pls... :pinched:

Next one:

N3 (II) Hold the Line

Haxn14 - 24:30 (262 827 pts) [v]

Pizza/Escort/Escort

This one was actually quite nice to play. Perfect kit and perfect weapon for dealing with the masters of stunlock. Can't even tell how much I hate those nasty orbs, imo THE most dangerous unit of the whole faction.

@ReaperRed: Congrats on your Valkyrie run. I was quite sure that someone will beat my time, I just didn't expect it to happen so fast.

@Haxn Thanks. Awesome time on Hold the Line. No way am I coming close to that one. I agree that those Nasty Orbs are the worst geth unit, because almost every time I've gotten mega-trolled by the Geth they're the ones responsible.

Lay down the lawson (redo)
This was very enjoyable because collectors. They are so awesome as an enemy faction. And also warp incen'dairy' cheese---so awesome. Farming scions has never been sweeter!
Objectives weren't very friendly - targets (2 missiles used because switch fail) > loldevices > hack (failed to cheese)

I would have uploaded the video if I had gotten >6 FPS on average. My video converter says that the average FPS for the video was 6.
#lolageoldlaptopnoframes4you

Edit: Another 10 mins shaved. Should be in 12 hr club now, I guess :P

Morning War (Redo)
I am in love with the arc pistol atm and I felt I could go sub-30 on this. Also switched the cyclonic for a power amp. Ended up with a sub-25 lol. At times, it felt like roflstomp. Arc grenades destroy geth!

I'm not sure what else I can redo for quicker times.

N6. Ash
protip: Do not use the Mattock with a broken mouse hand. I think I spent the whole game firing it at about the same RoF as the Saber.

I believe this run will make my goal of entering the 10 hour club more difficult, but I am never redoing this.

Two more solos to go for N7,  though I plan on redoing some of my times before then. There are approximately 5-6 more of these that I have in mind where I believe I can get sub-25 or close if I redo and get decent objectives. For now, though... I'm taking a break.

@bgsam: Cyclonics are much better for this challenge than Power Amps imo.

Escort/Escort/Pizza

I've been doing this challenge for the last 3-4 hours...so much Geth in a row can't be good for my sanity. I'm glad I got this done. Video tomorrow.

Would have been sub 19 if I didn't derpedy derp derp my last Cobra missile.

May be but the main reason I ditched cyclonic is because it was proving to be pointless. Rocket troopers were shield gating me with one shot even with cyclonics, hunters can easily shield gate you with 2 shots (even with cyclonic) due to stunlock preventing you from doing anything. I felt it was helpful vs. pyros and troopers but an arc grenade always stunned them aiding my escape. Primes are a whole different story. When the drone staggers you, an ops pack or medi-gel is likely to be used up.

Also, great job with the sub-20. The first sub-20 in this challenge series. Excellent!

Dude I'm talking about Cyclonic IV's. :P

Even with 0 Fitness (1500 shields) a Rocket Trooper can't shield gate you (1487.5 damage). It's quite a big difference, especially when considering the fact that they often double tap. This means shield gate with Cyclonics and health gate without.

^ Only if RNG was kind enough to give me cyclonic IVs. :(
12 PSPs and no cyclonic IVs. I gave it a try with cyclonic III and got some 27 odd mins. The power amp run was more of a 'test' and I felt it worked really well. I don't think I can go better than that, even with a cyclonic! :)

Edit: And the very first PSP I buy after this solo gives me:

Cyclonic III and 4 in Fitness has the same effect, but ok, if Power Amps really work better for you then there's no point arguing. 24:30 is still an excellent time after all.

Also nice PSP lol.
