Always wanted to try perfect gold solo, but I knew it would take me a long time, so I was postponing it. Recently did a couple of tries but never got very far. I started this one slow trying to be careful. Banshees gave me hell - it takes 6 or 7 nades to kill one banshee for me, even though I specked in power on passives. I think I spent like an hour on wave 5 just learning how to deal with double banshees. But once it was over I decided to keep going and complete it. So here is my super long krogan solo, so nothing to be in awe about, but since I did it I might as well just post it.
I am pure krogan. Hardcore, upload/escort/upload.
Tier 5 gold
Ok, I take the sexbot claim back. This was the easiest tier so far. Either that, or I figured out glacier. (Or I'm getting better?....... Nah.)
Tempted to try this on plat, but have to finish the last two tiers on gold first. Because doing things in order. ![]()
N7 Challenges GOLD, N1
I added my own house rule - no Geth Scanner allowed, except against geth, or on Platinum.
p.s. Yes, I know, completion times are awful
p.p.s I'm new to soloing and I suck at it... for now.
'grats Aw !
Have a cato's tip :
"By constructing a simple periscope from toilet roll tubes and compact mirrors, it is possible to watch television from beneath your floorboards."
U dont like to write the formatted line for prez, do u ?
N6 III Ash (Insanity)
*snip
Hack -> Hack -> Devices
Much rage was involved ^^
N6: 3 of 3 and done
You're a crazy person
@Alfonsedode: Pres has never asked me to do so. So no ![]()
@Heroic: You need to blame ex-Clusum for my madness.
Thanks to him, I tried to go farer than N1^^.
Using the Scorpion is a bigger help. Otherwise it wouldn´t have been possible.
But N7 I is far more difficult than Ash. I don´t think it´s possible for me to clear this one. I fear no N7 for me

only because pres got all soft and allowed cheating with scorpion for ash
also, u said the last part about 10 times when doing these already

That´s what I said. No Scorpion, no success on Ash. But Phantom DR remains BS.
And I´d like to say N7 I is still difficult, for the 11th time ![]()
N7 II. End scene (Insanity)




Devices -> Pizza -> Hack
N7: 1 of 3
CSMG is still allowed for Ariake?
CSMG is still allowed for Ariake?
Yes, I used it.
- Wow, I missed a ton of action in here! Congrats AW_FC on being the first person to complete Ash Insanity! (regardless of having the scorpion, I think it's still nuts!)
- Yes, CSMG is permitted for Ariake Insanity.
- Ex-Clusum is right, I did become a softie with the N7 series on platinum. I will not cave for N7 l though! ![]()
- Nicely done smehur and X3lander on your solos! (Not to worry X3lander, we're all scrubs really - as most people in this thread will admit
)
- Also, YlKil, I commend you good soldier on your concentration and endurance! However, you got way to close to my record for longest gold solo! (155 mins
)
I'll update tomorrow since I just worked 12 hrs non-stop.
Meh, HoF updated! haha. I also almost forgot, rank up to N1 X3lander!
Also, thanks Alfonsedode, yes having it in the correct format definitely makes it easier to update on this end. But I can't stay mad at AW_FC ![]()
N7 III Ariake (Insanity)




69:49 - AW_FC_1986 (347 170 pts) (for Alfonsedode
)
Escort -> Targets (successfully switched
) -> Pizza
N7: 2 of 3
Only one remains ![]()
^ Awesome job! That's the new Platinum Ariake record
And for your last challenge... "Spectre Status Recognized" which has never been done on platinum. Good luck!
Can I have a Reegar now?
It´s something I´ve deserved
.
Build I´ve found most effective so far:
http://kalence.drupa...!13F54364!C399G
Any suggestions?
CM IV has proven useless for me so far. I got killed by a single Phantom melee several times, while having full health. I´m too slow without adrenaline module :/
Plan of using rockets: wave 5x2, 8x3, 9x3, 10x1.

That is true, but keep in mind that I make everyone else feel good, because comparing to my time, all other times look so much better! ![]()
Meh, forget about N7 I. It´s too frustating for me.
Best attempts ended at the end of wave 8 to 9. Made it once to wave 10 with devices^^.
Cerberus on Glacier is denied for me^^.

So which sidearm do people feel would be fair to permit on this one? I've permitted the Scorpion on a couple of the later Cerberus runs on Platinum, which I think is only fair considering how difficult these are. Shall I permit the Acolyte for N7 l. Platinum only?
Accolyte now
!!!
I updated the N7 challenge series rules to include the platinum sidearm allowances. The update includes Acolyte for N7 l. It may trivialize the challenge for some, but I think in the grand scheme of the entire N7 series on platinum, it doesn't change the overall difficulty of the entire series much (and I didn't want to allow scorpion again). Completing all 21 challenges on platinum even with the sidearms is quite a feat. (Plus Cerberus on-host damage reduction is just not fun on platinum.)
Cheers!
Any restrictions on using the Accolyte?
I guess I should limit it to phantoms...
Nah, I give up. Doesn´t make sense to continue on this map called Glacier. Never liked Glacier anyway.
RNG doesn´t help at all. When I make it to wave 3, I mostly get devices or targets.
Maybe it´s a good moment to retire from this game. I´m going to get mad, if I´ll continue (Almost 40 attempts today. Best ended at wave 9).
