Time's ok. I could have been more aggressive on the clean ups on the latter waves, but overall, a pretty casual run. Disciple goes nice with Warp Rounds IV!

This thread will end well.
And hopefully not for a while! I've got a bunch of ideas, including multi-part series for solos

Hendrix' video was nice gameplay. Love the soft cover corner abuse down in the lower circle ammo area.

I used a no pull build (my standard one).
Disciple X - HVB V, SC V
Acolyte X - HvB V, Mag V
Shotgun Rail III
Shotgun Rail V
Warp Ammo IV
Cyclonic III
I got all escorts for some reason.
I guess I will compress and upload it.

@Capn233: Good job! No devices in a solo run is always a plus. I got three hacks lol.
HoF updated! Keep fighting the good fight! (Yes, that was just said)

@ The Eight: Congrats! Updating HoF now
What set-ups did you use?
I ran the following:
kalence.drupalgardens.com/me3-builder#15!3502535!!24X533!GE36G
With Warp Rounds IV. Got:
W3 - Pizza Delivery (Not the short distances drops though
W6 - Targets
W10 - Escort
I may attempt this again, but switch to 6A on Reave. Or drop the Cyclonic Mod for Power Amp and keep 6B on Reave. Hmmm...

When I try to hang back I can't do dmg because I'm too far away.
When I get in close the marauders and cannibals kill me and a Brute manages a lucky shot.
When I use only the Acolyte Ravagers give me trouble and I simply can't get close to them.
When I use only the disciple the marauders get me.
I also realized why I goddamn hate the Justicar.
She has no 1-2 combo that doesn't have restrictions like has to be in a warp bubble or must have health only and no shields and be pulled. the way I play her she requires a lot more firepower and a more reliable way to take out long range targets. Her shields are also quite pitiful.
She is basicly everything I hate and I can't play her correctly without resorting to extreme firepower.
This challenge seems like my antithesis. I really don't know if I can complete it as I can't fit in anything I excel at.
I'm about ready to smash my keyboard.
Excuses, I know gotta get back in there when I find myself a Cylonic 4 or something. Been wasting a lot of Cylonic 3s by now... Maybe I'll try something stupid and just stack Reave like mad and see what that does.

Eight tries. Around 3 sync kills, around twice got medigels wiped thanks to gangbang and once lost two because a Husk managed to grab me.

It sounds like your justicar is in need of some claymoar! That sounds like some rough luck too. I had one game where I got pinned by a banshee, a brute and his whole family and a ravager. I used 4 medigel before dying out in a pool of tears. There is no way out if that happens lol.
I found with cyclonic IV and reave maxed (I know it's crazy), you actually get some pretty decent damage protection, she wasn't that squishy. I had to stay away from the atrium though. I used two medigels towards the end just trying to run through there. Otherwise I made use of a lot of the soft cover in the upstairs room with the ammo and set up the bubble for BE. I noticed a big difference with the power of BE with the acolyte and power amp - but I had no choice since it was that or shotgun amp I.
I'm sure you can pull it off
Edit: I'm sure it's also cause you're going for a very quick time!

No there really isn't any George Strait in that.
I wonder if I could have done 10 waves survived with Cyclonic IV... but I also mainly lost focus late game, so probably not.

Smooth run and perfect title. That horizon does not get old either. It's such an aesthetically pleasing map/planet.

Loadout and Build
Wave 3: Targets, one Missile used on the first Banschee spawn (Killstreak)
Wave 6: Again targets (like in all 4 failed attempts before)
Wave 7: From this wave on it become a lot harder. I needed my first opspacks an medigel in that wave.
Wave10: Escort, two missile cleared the way but I had to kite anyway. One Missile to speed up the wave after the escort (The Opportunity was to good).
Extractionwave: One missile to clear the extractionzone.
I basicly ran around and used Reave against everything and watched how they die to the DOT from stacked Reave. The Acolyte were used to carry the Power Magnifier, to strip shields and barriers and to kill Husks.
This focus on Reave and its DOT was probably not the most effectiv way to solo but it work.
I think I will redo this solo later with a greater focus on weapons and BEs.

It's interesting to see all the styles and set-ups people are using to complete the mission.

Also have a PuG game video with this build for the score**** thread. Video is fun IMO, especially for me at around 23:40.

Thanks. Somehow I wish that I took some more screenshots in that game. (Unlike some fail rounds: 1 and 2)
Usually I do not play her that way. But I though that it is a save way to get the solo done. And it was indeed an interesting experience to play that way (Run, spam Reave, hide and repeat). Anyway I prefer Warp-Ammo-Delivery on reaved targets with a Lancer or Mattock..

I'll upload the video when I figure out why I get a BSOD when I try to render. Who wants to watch a 55 minutes gold solo anyways ? Not me !

about 4 Power amp 4s,
9 Cylonic 3s,
4 Shotgun amp 3s,
3 Warp ammo 4s,
1 AP ammo 4,
7 Incendiary ammo 4s,
3 Cryo ammo 4s,
10 Pistol amp 3s,
about 3-5 respec cards and the rest of my fragile sanity but I finally did it.

Apparently Banshees cannot block reave and with 6A evo it does pretty good dmg to everything the reapers can throw at you. This basicly solved my Brute, Banshee and most importantly my Ravager problem. Reave is good on all distances and it does not miss easily, perfect for what I needed.
I solved the Marauder and Cannibal problem by putting on Cryo ammo 4 and using the acolyte so I could slow them down and prevent them from shooting at me all the time. I also used the Cryo to lock marauders and Cannibals from important locations like objectives. Running shots and sharp turn shots with the acolyte also helped tremendously when I needed to kite or run like hell.
The last piece of the puzzle was a Cylonic 4 which gave me the survivability I needed to persevere.
Got it under 40 minutes at least so am happy with it... I do admit a Power amp 4 will make Reave absolutely destroy armor and barriers so if someone wants to beat Hendrix they need to ditch all survivability for dmg and get really lucky.
I'll upload the video when the elves of yootoob allow it.
