What is a good frame for solo Defense?

[MetalSonicMecha]

I really wanna farm Axi relics on Hydron but every time I try all the squad members leave, so I wanted to know a good Warframe for solo Defense so I can just do it alone. If you can also recommend some weapons that also would be great!

Octavia works wonders as well -- toss out your mallet and your amp to double the damage and range, and sit back invis and pick off anything that opts to ignore the mallet for some reason.

I just did Saryn solo on Hydron for giggles to 40 and it still had 42 or 44k HP, it's not that hard and if you have those shield specters that charge up the defense objective then you could go quite a bit longer. My Saryn build is 200something range and I melee everything (no ignis). You might need some energy restores but if you have the 10x schematic for them that's no problem either.

TBH this game isn't that hard so you can take a variety of different characters to these missions and make it work solo or in a group.

I don't know if you have her, but Octavia works very well with defense. Just make sure to give her lots of range, power and duration. Primed flow and continuety helps a lot.
