Were you trying to go for a speedrun record? I did my first pc solo unintentionally with the loltrooper on reapers glacier. Didn't find it too annoying, then again it's easy mode.


I find that by far the most lethal wave for me is wave 7, because of the huge budget and neverending stream of Ravagers, Brutes, Banshees and Marauders.


Tophatgeth pls


Brutes are actually a quite dangerous enemy when soloing Glacier. They don't kill you by themselves, but being big as they are they can easily force you in a bad position and get you killed indirectly.

Unless you can teleport, that is.

Dearbear pls

LoL, not really, just trying to complete an actual solo against Reapers on Glacier. Bigger maps make it far too easy.

I find that by far the most lethal wave for me is wave 7, because of the huge budget and neverending stream of Ravagers, Brutes, Banshees and Marauders.

Also, thanks for the tip, Computron.


Ah so you can use any character? Then use a Fury/Slayer and enjoy the sight of Reapers on their knees :wizard:


Ah no, I'm trying to do it with the Asari Milfiltrator. Switched several loadouts too. At the moment, I'm at Harrier+Geth Scanner (dropped the Hurricane because my hand hurts from fighting the recoil and the raspberry sound it makes is qutie annoying). Tried Talon (which Hendrix used in his solo), but didn't like it.

Ah sorry I thought you were refering to the Brutes not being tough enemies and didn't notice the wave composition.

She might even be decent for soloing.

For playing in a full, competent team... She's one of the worst overall characters. Bleh.

 Indeed.  She's best when soloing and yet still not very good at it.

interesting OP Heldarion.

I've found that being under damn near constant pressure from Banshees makes trying to get a kiting strategy on that map difficult in the later waves. but your other reasons are quite true as well!

Ravagers and Brutes. Tbh the main difficulty are objectives waves otherwise they're not that hard, albeit really slow.

The thing I hate most about soloing versus Reapers is the husks. I waste so much of the time killing the little buggers. Particularly on Glacier where you literally can't get away from them, especially if there's a bunch of Brutes taking up space.

 That would be one  reason why the Bat Sol and GI are so good v. solo reapers.  Proxymine/Ballistic Blades->3 dead husks.  No mucking about with shooting each of them or somesuch.

Maybe on regular Gold solo's but if you are trying to go Flawless then Cerberus is actually harder than the reapers. The Dragoons rush you so fast on objectives you dont have time to get away at times. Try it...come back and I am sure your rant will change drastically.
