Very nice Salmon!

I'll have to watch these videos later.

[Antsu39]

Good guide overall and nice examples in action.

[dragaaan]

very well done i have to say, there was actually some stuff i didn't know

[Alfonsedode]

I like to see failed examples, especially from excellent player . Got a lot more to learn than with a smooth one.
Will look at those soon.

I've yet to solo a platinum, I've tried maybe 20 times and have reached wave 10 at least 5 times.
I tend to panic and get myself into dumb situations draining my medi-gel usually involving hunters or marauders.

Early I had an escort Oh and this was wave 10, I had plenty of consumables left... This is it ... "I've done it!" Or so I thought
About half way something strange happened. The drone disappeared as did the time counter and although I could hear the drone I couldnt see it. -GAME OVER.
FFFFFF........

Great set of videos - I've saved them to review again later.
Just two comments:
First, on Targets, the third method you suggest is using Thermal Clips (i.e., the 100% damage boost) to take down an enemy quickly. I missed it the first two times I watched this, as I think you used the TC within the first second of the video at 7:55, going from 5 to 4 TCs. For the first two times, I thought reloading at the ammo box at 8:25 was what you were referring to.
(The suicidal charge at 9:13 was quite a glorious death for your Krogan warlord!)

Second, it appears that you try to avoid killing enemies on extraction, presumably to avoid enemies re-spawning in areas near the LZ?

While I may never complete a platinum solo, all the tactics you demonstrate are just as valuable on any solo effort, (or any group effort, provided there is some coordination to the group.)

Thanks very much for posting these. I second David Diablo's nomination for these vids to go to the Resource Library.

One thing I didn't see was this:  be patient and don't take excessive risks, especially if you aren't an experienced soloer.  I am horrible at soloing, and it's mostly because I have no patience for it.

Added another example of an object recovery.

Dat pizza on Rio. I know the feeling

Nice Vids !
For targets objectives, maybe it s worth insisting on how to switch targets with one or 2 missiles max ?

The only targets I've seen switched consistently on platinum is on wave 6 reapers and wave 3 collectors. The rest don't change no matter how many rockets I use.

Thanks, helps a lot!

It's very hard to include everything in a guide because you always forget things and think some things are common knowledge. It was implied in the kiting video that you should take your time because kiting the enemies around the map takes time.

I also didn't explain how to deal with different enemies and I may do some guides on that.

Nice, I especially like the shorter format for most of the vids. Makes for easy, enjoyable and informative watching as I continue my attempts for a first plat solo...

For the equipment video you forgot the bottle of water and empty bottle for emergency urination during that 90min+ slog fest.

Wave 6 - Leave the Atlas until last,. Lead him to one corner of the map then run to the other side on Giant you get anything up to 90 seconds before he's on you. Pittle break.

[BobGraceful30]

Fantastic, thank you. Nice easy chunks

Possibly the best tip to have ever graced the BSN, thanks vm!

Great guide, with all the elements. Nice work OP

[Max Dmian]

Great stuff man, started watching them.

After more than a few failed solo attempts, I had given up.  Have started watching your work here and am getting fired up to try again!
Thanks for doing these - awesome stuff and much appreciated.
