What kind of stats and what rotation would it take to do this? I've seen some leaderboard guys on xbone that seem to be able to do it. Are there any other characters capable of soloing nightmare FC?
Can you solo Nightmare FC with the Lego?

What rotation do you use for the Lego? I can do okay with the Reaver but my constitution isn't high enough to be able to solo it (40ish). Frost beam or assassins would take me out every time.

Why would you want to?
I could try to solo it and might succeed in XXX tries but why waste the time?

we will be talking up to couple of hoursLego is pretty much unkillable with the right set up and when played intelligently.... It can be done for sure but it takes FOREVER!

I think something else to consider too is what faction you would prefer to use the Lego with. Each have their ups and down for him:
Demons:
+ Lowish armors/don't take as long to kill
+ No sword and shield guys being annoying
+ Demon Commander is manageable as a Lego/Dragon in FC is also manageable
- Despair Demons are a pain to chase around
- Fire wraiths and their burning damage is nothing to scoff at
Venatori:
+ Their assassins are not as deadly as the Templar shadows, but are still tricky to hit, and can give you a good beating if you lose guard
- If too many mages are together, you'll be going around a mine field of glyphs, plus they teleport away when you start hitting them
- Sword and shield guys are incredibly frustrating, especially multiple of them at once *cough* zone 5
- Venatori Commander's fire spells and barrier can be a challenge to deal with/Dragon in FC is manageable
Templars:
+ No magic to deal with
+ Templar Commander is manageable with the Lego/Dragon in FC is also manageable
- They seem to have a ridiculous amount of armor in Nightmare, hence takes more time to kill them. 'To the Death' is your friend.
- Their assassins are pretty damn terrifying, especially when you have a group of them around you
- Red crystals can really start to put a strain on your defense, as well as multiple of them from being powered up by the Knights
Hm, I'm sure i missed more, but this has been my experience with the Lego so far. I still think he's a solid character for Nightmare though.

I did it the other night and I'm kicking myself for not taking To The Death. I would not recommend Shield Bashing your way through the castle. ![]()

Wooow, that's quite impressive.
Watched just some highlights from the video. Also how amazing are cooldowns on the lego with higher cunning/crits?!
Great job!

Yes even without the Hakkon weapon but it would take long unless you get demons which could be about 30-45mins. I've been in a few situations where the team dies and I end up soloing everything for the remainder of that round as a lego. I sometimes start lobbies in nightmare solo and public just hoping for dps to join.
I use counterstrike, war cry, payback strike, and walking fortress. My crit chance is really the key for me, I get my skill back so fast that I don't really need both war cry and walking fortress just one would be good enough. Counterstrike is really for the team otherwise I would use to the death.

Thanks for the support guys. I was hoping to try another nightmare solo attempt sometime, but maybe with another character. Any suggestions? o:

To the Death not only helped kill things faster, but it also kept me alive a couple of times while my other stuff was on cooldown. Sometimes you can To the Death a weaker enemy while focusing on prioritizing others. Every now and then I'll swing at the weaker enemy to regain some guard. But the dragon fight is where it really shined for me. It was a difference between a 20-ish minutes as opposed to 1 hour +
If you're not running Shield Bash and you're worried about the dragon's guard, I recommend getting To the Death (upgraded) and the passive right next to it called 'Guard-Smasher'. You'll do a healthy amount of damage to guard this way without the need of Shield Bash c:

Crits are life on the lego. Having the option to Walking Fortress so frequently keeps you practically invincible, as long as you're swinging your weapon. Since I can't 100% crit yet, I made up for it by equipping crit chance rings, a cunning amulet, and crit chance upgrade on my weapon. Also, thanks ^^
I'm gonna have to do some solo runs. It's impossible to find a Nightmare lobby, even on weekends.
What builds are you guys running for this?
I was running Payback Strike, Walking Fortress, To the Death, and Unbowed. For a team run, I'd probably replace Unbowed or Payback Strike with Counterstrike or War Cry. Build kind of depends on your stats/gear, and how comfortable you are taking hits out in the open. If you have lowish stats, I think a more tanky build would be better, with at least one offense slot.
