I think that Clusum was talking about the rank 5 of Overload (recharge speed instead of Neural Shock).

Now I see, what ex-Clusum really meant. IMO neural shock hadn´t any use, when fighting Phantoms, Dragoons and bosses.

Doesn't Neural Shock gives a damage boost against Phantoms' barriers ? I think it does...

 

But, anyway, I agree that it's not really worth it if you can't destroy their barrier in a single cast, what is impossible with the HE if you don't have a power amp 4 + a power magnifier + rank 4b and 5a of the weapon / power passive.

You're right. It adds 300% damage against organic shields & barriers.

i guess acolyte was there to do the shield/barrier work, and overload, the stunning. Why not take 6a then ?

I d like some other pro to record this one. It was very hard for me on gold, so wave  8 and 9 plat .... bouuu

And 0.2 second faster recharge definitely makes a ton of difference

-Nice run smehur, down to the final tier of Neufchatel!

Woohoo! Neufchatel done on gold. 

 

I want to transition to platinum now. What's the best thing to do? Do these challenges, since they're [ch]easy? Try some other set? Or do a random solo with a kit/map/enemy I'm comfortable with? Opinions welcome!

Congrats Smehur! I'll update soon

 

As for transitioning to plat solos. I'd say going with your best kit is probably the best way. If that kit happens to be in this series then all the better!

Tiers 1,2 and 3 should be relatively straight forward for you. You can easily do them IMO.

Tier 4 should be OK as well, but Cerberus can turn on their peak BS mode and frustrate you. Same goes for tier 6.

Tier 5 and 7 are borderline.

 

There are some solos in the weekly set and N7 set that are good choices for a first plat solo. You should browse them, if you haven't already.

I would've cut the times down first. 90 min plat solos can be quite tiresome, having to stay aware for longer than you really need and all this nofun stuff, headache material right there.

[AW_FC_1986]

In that case, Blasteroid of the weekly challenges might be the best start for platinum solos.

As said by ex-clusum, plat duos or gold solo could lift your game more atm i think. (said the guy who never went for a second plat solo)
 But maybe not.

N7 on gold are pretty good all around for getting better progressively, but you clearly could start N1 on plat

That's actually a very nice way of saying L2P. Thank you for being so kind.   

 

Jokes aside, the advice is sound; my times are indeed abysmal and it's not like I find it trivial to solo gold - far from it. But I'm too impatient and overconfident right now to do such smart things. It'll probably take a dozen failed attempts and a few headaches before I eventually do.

Uh-huh.

Agreed about plat duos; doing duos is by far my favorite thing in this game. Also yes, I might start doing other challenge sets on gold. Just... gotta get at least one plat solo done first. Kinda itching for it, like a nervous krogan.

Was in the mood of soloing. So why not start with these great challenges.

Nice times, Frank. I don't think I had a single one sub-30, and most were sup-40.
